What Does a Personal Trainer Do?

Personal trainers are fitness professionals who design and prescribe customised exercise programs and provide guidance to their clients for achieving their health goals. Whether it’s building strength, improving cardiovascular health, or recovering from an injury, personal trainers offer personalised support. The sessions usually start with an assessment of fitness to understand the current status of the individual's health and his/her specific goals. From there, the trainer will create a tailored exercise and nutrition plan, adjusting as needed to help you progress.

Benefits of Using a Personal Trainer

1. Personalised attention: A personal trainer creates customised training programs and nutrition plans.
2. Motivation: They will keep you accountable and ensure you stay on track.
3. Injury prevention & recovery: They ensure proper technique to avoid any injury and may be able to help rehabilitation from one.
4. Flexible scheduling: The session can be adjusted to fit your lifestyle.
5. Expertise: Personal trainers are knowledgeable about fitness, health, and nutrition.

Because they’re working directly with you, personal trainers can adapt to your specific needs better than other professionals like fitness class instructors. 

What To Expect During a Personal Training Session

In your first session, your personal trainer will assess your present condition through body measurement, some fitness testing, and questions regarding your objectives. After this, a customised program will be designed. These can be done in a gym, outdoors, or within the comfort of your own home - whichever you organise with them. You’ll work with your trainer to improve both fitness and nutrition in a way that’s realistic for your lifestyle. From there, you can choose how regularly to see your personal trainer, usually once or more a week, and start to work towards your aims through workouts and following a diet plan.
