Why hiring a Personal Trainer gets you better results than a gym membership
Pro's and Con's of Hiring a Personal Trainer

Pro's

• The training and nutrition is personal to you
• You can train one-to-one or in small groups
• You can pay by the hour or on a monthy basis, my PT service offers this and most others do
• Results based! All personal trainers will be focused on achieving great results for clients
• Tailored exercise and diet plans to meet your dietary and fitness needs

• Regularly check your weight or inches using the scales or a tape measure
• Gain technical aspects of resistance and weight training (e.g. don't lock out during the chest press) and also cardiovascualr training
• A personal trainer can train you at your home, outdoors, or indoors it just depends o the client's needs

Con's

• 95% of the great results comes from you and the other 5% comes from the trainer's tools to help you get the results!
• Results take time and noticeable changes in your body should be in the first 6-8 weeks
• Cost! Some trainers can cost what would seem quite a lot of money. Average PT session per hour is £30
• Don't expect results if your not willing to work HARD

Pro's and Con's of Joining a Gym

Pro's

• Pay monthly by almost all gyms, some bodybuilding gyms however offer pay as you train.
• Most gyms offer early opening times and late night closing times (long hours to train)
• You have access to resistance and cardiovascular equipment
• Social gathering, meet new friends, meet existing friends etc
• Concessions for students, OAP's, benefits etc
• Train at a time that suits you

Con's

• You don't get step by step guidance from a gym to follow through your fitness goals
• You left to your own devices and sometimes this can be pivotal to you reaching your goals or going to the gym for the sake of it and going nowhere with it!

Is this still you after a month's gym membership?

• The gym staff don't evaluate your gym programme after 4-6 weeks and see where your at with your exercise for all gym members
• Not enough knowledge passed on from gym staff to gym members about nutrition and exercise to help with eating habits, weight management, exercise plans and tips
• There is nobody who can push you every training session
• Less effective at burning fat than using a personal trainer
• They don't show that they care about your fitness journey than a personal trainer would.
• Don't offer any motivational techniques
• Don't look at your previous diet and exercise in depth and monitor, evaluate and progress your fitness goals
• No goal setting
