How often should I meet with a personal trainer?
This still depends upon your goals, how quickly you want to achieve them, your schedule and time available to exercise, and your budget... but when considering the cost, be sure to remember that this is your health and there is nothing on earth that is more important... because without it you have nothing.
On average, most clients do best when they meet with a personal trainer 2-3 times per week... less than that many people will generally slacken off and not get nearly as much out of it. Here are a few things to keep in mind when determining how often you'll meet with your trainer...
- 1. How fast do you want to achieve your goal and see results
- The more frequently you meet with your trainer the faster you'll see results and achieve your goals and there are several reasons for this... consistency, accountability, motivation, guidance, you'll be able to work much harder and be monitored much more closely with your trainer than on your own.
- 2. How much experience with exercise do you have and how much do you really know?
- While many people have exercised before, many for years... but do you really know it all? It's not likely... we spend years and years studying and learning to know what we know and our primary focus is on helping and teaching you. Think about it... if you don't know taxes (like I sure don't!) are you going to try to figure it out yourself or have someone help you? Why leave your fitness results to chance?
- Most clients we work with start out meeting with their personal trainer 2-3 times per week and then will gradually decrease the frequency as they progress and learn more, and feel more comfortable and confident on their own.
