Stay motivated with a Personal Trainer
Whether you are a gym goer or prefer to work out at your own place, it is important to know what and how you want to train, and subsequently deciding how to work out. That is easier said than done, and making it happen is a completely different story! When you hit the gym like most people, you have a look what is written on the machines, how you should use them and at best how many reps are recommended. But for what fitness level? Even worse, what would be the starting weight? What you would do is to start experimenting with weights and numbers of repetitions and that not only with one machine but probably with all of them that are organized and set up in a circuit training. After a very sweaty hour or more you happily made the round and noticed you did not write down what you have trained where as your starting measurement. For the next time you try to remember hard what you have trained on your previous visit, trying to stay in the same routine for as many visits as possible. When working out at your place you might have a different situation. Here you know your equipment, read the instructions, and know what to do with it. In addition, you found your favorite YouTube class and know all the exercises already by heart before your favorite trainer tells you what to do. There are probably quite a lot of similar situations but what they all have in common is they are workouts you know best, and you would repeat each time because you know them. So, it comes as no surprise that no matter how often you do them you do not come closer to your personal goals like losing weight or building muscles at the desired parts of the body. That is very often the point when motivation drops bundled with frustration, annual gym memberships are neglected, weights are stored in the basement, workout apps are deinstalled and physical activities are given the lowest priority in the future.
Better Results with a professional personal trainer
At that point in time, you should realize the best way to get out of that situation is to hire a personal trainer. When you enroll in a gym or you want to start your own home workout endeavor, the best is to meet virtually or in person with a personal trainer who would discuss your fitness goals and understands where you are and where you want to be. In order to do that your trainer will observe your skills and ability in your first workout and recognizes your strength and improvement potential. As a result, all your workouts will be
- Designed and planned in order to help you reach your fitness goals
- Set with the right equipment and repetitions that will be adapted to your training progress
- Observed for the right technique and form. Your trainer recognizes when to stop you before you get too tired and risk injuries
- Motivating with your trainer at your side that knows exactly when to push you to your limits
- Tracked and adjusted to keep you focused
Your personal trainer has the knowledge and skills to make the best of your workouts for you. No matter whether you invest into a gym membership or into your own equipment, there is no reason to do your workouts without a professional personal trainer.
You are worth it when it comes to your health and fitness, so it is worth working out with the personal trainer you trust.
