Google ‘personal trainers near me’<\/em> and you’ll likely get names of gyms, individual websites, and directories sponsored by certifying agencies. It can be overwhelming, so many of us turn to our local gym or friends to find a trainer.\u00a0Hiring a personal trainer means you are paying someone to help you set and work towards your fitness goals while providing motivation. They are going to be an integral part of your life and it is not a decision to take lightly. You will be trusting them with your medical information, your goals and your temple, your body. Follow these steps\u00a0for selecting a personal trainer for a more enjoyable and fruitful experience!<\/span><\/p>\n [note color=”#d4fa84″]Starr’s Tip: Focus on how you want to feel, not on what you weigh.[\/note]<\/p>\n [note color=”#d4fa84″]What does Certification mean? There are multiple NCCA (National Commission for Certifying Agencies) accredited organizations that certify personal trainers. You may have heard of some of them (ACE, IFFA, ACSM, NASM, etc.). Each has unique requirements for the person to become and maintain certification.[\/note]<\/p>\n Finally, be prepared to grow with your trainer.<\/strong> I believe the best coaches and trainers adapt with their clients over time as they help them develop the skills and tools they need to succeed on their own. This may mean seeing your trainer less in time. Take your time, choose wisely and be prepared to have some fun! Yes, fitness should be and can be FUN! Questions about this blog?
