How to find the personal trainer for you

Be yourself

Your personal trainer is there to help you reach your goals. Your trainer is a person you may meet with once a month or once a day. When going to a consultation with a trainer or to meet yours for the first time, be yourself! You want a trainer that pushes you to be your best, but you also want someone you can see yourself getting along with. 

Have some goals in mind

If you're thinking about getting a personal trainer, brainstorm some goals you may have for beginning a program. Want to improve your form? Rehabilitate an injury? Do you have any weight-related goals? These goals don't need to be specific, but it's a good idea to have something in mind. Your trainer should be able to understand your goals and help you refine them to make them achievable. 

Don't be afraid to ask

When looking for trainers, don't be afraid to ask the trainer if they have experience in certain fields. Are you looking to gain strength after having a baby? Ask your trainer if they have experience with postpartum mothers. Not sure where to start after having a knee replacement? Ask the trainer if they know about the exercise recommendations for joint replacements. A good trainer will be honest with you about their comfort level working with these types of situations. You need to feel comfortable that your trainer knows what they are doing when working with you!

Try them out

Ageless Fitness recommends at least one personal training session with your trainer before choosing to stick with a program. Any trainer can talk you into a deal, but until you experience what a session will be like, you won't know what you are signing up for. Its a good idea to try the trainer out and see how you like their style. Don't hesitate to ask questions, this is your time to get to know the person you may be working with!

Keep communication open

Choose a trainer you feel comfortable talking to. There should be open communication regarding your goals, how you're feeling, and if you are getting the results you want. Trainers want you to speak up if you want something to change in your program. We are designing programs for you, but that doesn't mean we aren't human. You should feel comfortable being honest with your trainer about your goals and how you feel about your sessions. A fitness journey isn't perfect, but your trainer is there to encourage you along the way. 

Not sure where to go?
