Why should I hire a personal trainer?
Hiring a personal trainer might seem like something that’s only accessible to the rich and famous, but it’s not! There are many good reasons to hire a personal trainer. Here are just a few reasons to hire a personal trainer:
• Get a customized training plan: For most gym-goers, figuring out which exercises to do and where to start can be the most intimidating part of going to the gym. Working with a trainer can take the guesswork out of it as they work with you to construct a plan that’s tailored to your needs.
• Form check: Personal trainers know how to properly perform exercises and can help make sure that you are exercising safely and with good form to reduce your risk of injury. It’s also a great way to learn how to work out properly so that you can feel more comfortable working out on your own.
• Accountability: Knowing that someone is waiting for you at the gym and that you are paying for that time with them can be a great motivator to get to the gym for your workout. Your personal trainer can also help to make sure you stay on track during your sessions so that you get the most out of your time spent at the gym.
• Try new exercises: Tired of doing the same exercises over and over? I can introduce you to new exercises and equipment to keep things fresh as you crush your goals.
• Push past plateaus: Fit pros know how to appropriately change the intensity of your workouts in a safe and structured manner to keep you advancing. Plus, you’re likely to push yourself a bit harder with a trainer than you might on your own!
How many times a week do I need a Personal Trainer?
Current physical activity guidelines recommend 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week and muscle-strengthening activities on 2 or more days a week to work all major muscle groups. The number of times per week that you work with will depend on your goals, your budget, and your schedule.
If you have general health and fitness goals, then training 2-3 days per week for at least 60 minutes per session will help you meet the current physical activity guidelines for muscle strengthening. For muscle building, weight loss, or performance goals, more days of training may be required to help you reach your goals. If your budget doesn’t allow for more than 1-2 sessions a week I am able to write you a workout for the days you go to the gym solo.
What equipment can I use?
You can use whatever equipment you have available although I’ll list some of my favorite pieces of equipment for training at home.
Resistance bands: These are lightweight portable and versatile. They can be used for a variety of exercises, including strength training, stretching and mobility work.
Dumbbells or Adjustable dumbbells:
Dumbbells are a classic piece if home equipment. they come in a variety of weights and can be used for a wide range of exercises, including curls, presses, squats and rows.
Kettlebells: Kettlebells are similar to dumbbells but have a unique shape that allows for more dynamic movements. They can be used for exercises like swings, snatches and Turkish get-ups.
