Choosing The Right One For You
Anyone can call themselves a personal trainer, so it is crucial that you choose carefully. There are some excellent training diplomas out there and the most popular that you should look for are: APT (Association of Personal Trainers), NRPT (National Register of Personal Trainers), FTST (Fitness Training Sports Therapy Diploma), PT Dip (Personal Training Diploma) or an Hon's Sports Science (SS) (Degree).
Finally, always try to get a personal referral from someone else. If you can't do this then ask the trainer for the names of 3 clients and do contact them and ask what they they thought of the service provided. |
What Can A Personal Trainer Do For You?
People use personal trainers as a way to reach their fitness goals sooner. Usually, a personal trainer will prepare a special exercise program designed to meet your personal needs and motivates you to exercise.
Your trainer should give you exercises to do, teach you how to perform each exercise properly, vary your exercises regularly, and challenge and motivate you.
Expect your trainer to watch your exercises for proper technique. Document your workouts so you and your trainer can track your workouts and monitor progress.
