Why you need a personal trainer..

Many would be in agreement that our greatest gift in life is health. Regardless of this, many perceive working with a personal trainer as a luxury rather than a service that aids in achieving personal goals that you’ve been finding hard to achieve.  Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain muscle, get in shape for a specific event, decrease your risk of heart disease then working with a personal trainer may be what it takes to get the job done. As a personal trainer, the goal is to cater specifically to each individual’s needs, goals and abilities to tailor a programme for them.
I believe people may know why they aren’t reaching their goals;
1.      Motivation.
This is a huge reason why people may fall short of achieving their goals. Have you ever not made it to the gym or failed to get up early for that run? This is where a personal trainer comes in. When you’re not in the mood to work out or feel like you can’t give any more, your trainer is there to push and motivate you to ensure you reach that one extra rep or extra 5 seconds on a run. These mini victories add up over time and you will see the difference.

2.      Accountability.
Making sure you stick to a programme or workouts is half the battle, as something always seems to crop up. However, scheduling your sessions with your trainer will force you to commit that time and effort towards it 100%. Additionally, with regular contact and progress checks before and after sessions, your personal trainer will ensure you have continuous improvement and you will remain true to your plan.

3.      Education.
The fitness industry is always coming up with new and exciting workouts that people love to jump head first into and try. As a trainer it’s our job to understand all the new pieces of equipment or new workouts and decide if they will be useful to maximise the results you are looking for.

4.      Time management.
Do you ever feel like you’re in the gym for hours and not sure what different machines do, or how long to do certain exercises for? Well a personal trainer will provide targeted, effective workouts that can halve the time needed in the gym, ultimately giving you time back.
