Personal Fitness Trainer

Why it’s smart to trust a personal fitness trainer to guide you through your fitness routine

Almost everyone struggles with physical fitness at some point in their life. Unfortunately, far too many people just simply don’t get enough exercise. 

The Cleveland Clinic reports that 80% of Americans aren’t exercising enough to maintain an optimum level of health. This is one of the factors that has led to the rise of so many health issues among Americans. Some of these health issues include obesity, heart disease and diabetes. However, working with a personal fitness trainer can help you improve your health and fitness. 

How can working with a personal fitness trainer benefit you?

Working to improve or maintain an optimum level of fitness does take some time. For instance, it’s recommended that adults try to do 150 to 300 minutes of moderate exercise per week. This might include doing activities like walking briskly, swimming or mowing your lawn. An alternative option is to do 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous exercise weekly, such as running or biking.

Additionally, you might be hitting your weekly minutes of exercise, but you might not be seeing the results you were hoping for. Some reasons you might not be is you aren’t doing exercises correctly or you’re only doing one type of exercise. This is where personal fitness trainers come in. These specialists can help you by:

  • Educating you on exercises
  • Creating exercise plans personalized to your needs
  • Helping you manage your mental and physical well-being
  • Teaching you proper exercise form
  • Reducing your risk of injuring yourself while exercising
  • Helping you learn how to set realistic fitness goals
  • Holding you accountable 
  • Revealing the connection between exercising and nutrition
  • Encouraging you to learn better exercising habits
