If you’re looking to improve your fitness, recover from an injury, or simply learn a new skill, the best way to reach your goals is through hiring a personal trainer.
In this episode, we discuss the factors that go into investing in a personal trainer. First, we discuss the $50-$200 price range per session for a personal trainer. Personal Training is a service, and requires a lot of time and expertise to come up with a workout plan tailored to you. How much you spend is first and foremost based on experience, which is the most important qualifier to look for with a personal trainer. However, experienced trainers also tend to cost more. The industry isn’t regulated enough, and proper education is certainly a factor in how good a personal trainer is, and how much they cost.
Other factors that go into the price range to hire a personal trainer are your location, what kind of gym they’re a part of, and if they have niche specialties. In general, making a decent living as a personal trainer can be a challenge. We discuss the cuts that big box gyms take from their personal trainers and the costs associated with taking a more entrepreneurial approach.
Then we discuss why hiring a personal trainer is actually important in the long run for your overall health and the money you could be saving down the road. We talk about how our everyday habits, such as going out with friends, going out to coffee regularly, etc. actually cost about the same as working out with a personal trainer regularly.
Investing in a personal trainer is important for several reasons, like having accountability and committing yourself to your fitness goals. Personal trainers also help you progress your programming so you’re not doing random workouts everytime you go to the gym. And, a good personal trainer will know how to maximize your fitness gains by tailoring plans specific to you. Hiring a good trainer also ensures you’re executing your movements with proper form. This keeps you healthy now, and for the long term.
