Why Hire a Personal Trainer? By Clint T. Clothier
A structured exercise program, including aerobic and anaerobic exercise, is an excellent way to lose weight. It is the only way that has been proven to keep weight off of your scales! Fitness is "in" now, more than ever! There are three different levels of fitness in the United States today: The Novice--the person who wants to be in better physical health but doesn't know how to accomplish this. The Intermediate--this person has exercised before. Over the past one to five years he/she has learned a lot about the popular, healthy way to better aerobic and anaerobic fitness. The Advanced--these upper achievers in fitness probably learned their techniques through a high school or college sport. Hiring a personal trainer to plan your workout is good for all levels of fitness. The trainer can help motivate you to move! So what will a personal trainer do for you? He/she will provide you with a structured exercise program. For the novice, the intermediate, or the advanced exerciser: a structured exercise program can give the proper fundamentals for basic building blocks while helping the more seasoned athletes obtain the body they want without wasting a lot of time and energy. Getting in better shape is fun! So why pay for a fitness facility that you don't use due to lack of know-how? A program structured with a professional provides security because you know you can accomplish your goals safely, without injury. Also, just being around an educated consultant will give you more usable knowledge and first hand know-how than reading the back of a "Joe Weider" Box or a "Muscle Magazine." Remember, the most important step in achieving a better you is knowing the right way to do it. Whether it be for beginners or advanced trainers, a structured program is for everyone of all ages and sexes. To sum it up, personal trainers can provide you with a structured exercise program that will help you obtain quicker results from your workouts while avoiding injury. Specifically, a personal trainer will: Counsel with you regarding nutrition. Measure your percentage of body fat. Set up your exercise program. Teach you to exercise at the proper heart rate. Take your blood pressure. Take your pulse rate. Motivate you to stay with your program. And, let's face it, some of us are pretty HARD to motivate!
