Getting in shape can be a challenge. By getting a personal trainer for weight loss you can get a lot of benefits that make your life easier.
A personal trainer is someone who guides you through the process, offline or online, of getting to your physical goals.
1. More results
Not all healthy habits help you lose weight as much. Some habits just have a bigger impact than others.
When you have limited experience with seeing what changes have what results it’s easy to do the less effective things. A personal trainer will make sure you focus on the things that actually get you results.
2. Faster results
By working together with a personal trainer you can get faster weight loss results. You won’t have to take a lot of time to figure out what you’re doing wrong. You will do the things that get you faster results.
Taking a long time to get in shape can be extremely frustrating, certainly if you’re doing uncomfortable things to lose weight.
3. Feeling less miserable
A lot of people think you have to feel miserable while losing weight. Luckily that doesn’t have to be the case.
There are weight loss habits that are not uncomfortable. There are ways you can make your weight loss journey a lot more comfortable. At the same time there are also habits that are very uncomfortable but don’t actually do that much for weight loss. A personal trainer can teach, help you implement, and help you avoid these things.
4. Clarity on what to eat
The amount of different foods can be very overwhelming. It can be really complicated to put together a good weight loss diet.
A personal trainer knows what foods will help you with weight loss. Not just by having a feel for calorie count. Also by knowing how much certain foods help against hunger, what foods help boost your metabolism and what foods contain the nutrients you need.
5. Accountability
People generally have an easier time keeping promises to someone else than to themselves.
A personal trainer is someone you promise to implement certain habits. He or she will not forget these things and bring them up regularly. This way it becomes a lot easier to actually do the things you set out to do.
6. Learn how to motivate yourself
Motivation is not only something that happens to you. Sometimes it does and that’s great but you can also create motivation for yourself. A good personal trainer will teach you how to do that.
On top of that the personal trainer can also do some of the motivation creating himself/herself.
7. Peace of mind
Have you ever tried to do something you don’t really know for sure how to do?
You think a little about it. You do the thing that sounds best to do but you always have in the back of your mind that you might be doing the wrong thing. Certainly when you don’t get the results you were expecting doubt starts to creep in.
By hiring a personal trainer you don’t have to worry about all of that. You just have to focus on actually doing the things. No more laying awake at night, endlessly wondering if you’re doing the right things.
8. Saves time
A good personal trainer didn’t learn everything he/she knows in a day or 2. If the personal trainer did his/her research it probably took years to gather all that knowledge.
You might be able to learn all these things too but it will take you a lot of time and trial and error. For most people it’s just better to hire someone who already did all the learning.
This again leaves more time for actually doing the things that will help you lose weight.
9. Personalized approach
Different people are in different situations. What worked for someone else might not be the best thing for you to do. You might know you’re very injury sensitive, in that case some exercises are better than others.
This can also cause a lot of confusion. One of your friends might have done this one exercise while losing 20 pounds but when you do it you see no results.
A personal trainer will help you learn what you should do in your situation for the most results.
10. Someone who understands what you’re going through
Even when you’re doing everything right you will feel ups and downs.
Family and friends are not always that supportive of your weight loss goals. Some phrases you might hear are “live a little”, “it’s only one piece of cake”, “life is too short to work on your health”.
A personal trainer is someone who understands what you’re going through. Someone you can talk to about the difficulties. Someone who genuinely feels happy for you when you get closer and closer to your weight loss goal.
Is it worth it to get a personal trainer?
Hiring a personal trainer is almost always the smart thing to do. It will save you from so much effort, wasted time, uncertainty, sleepless nights, and loneliness while reaching your weight loss goals.
There is always the question of price but if you look at the bigger picture it’s almost certainly the smart thing to do.
Do you need to get a personal trainer near you?
You can get both an in-person trainer or an online trainer.
But why would you limit your choice to one that lives near you? Basically every aspect of weight loss coaching can be done through online calls, informational videos, etc.
With an online coach you can receive guidance from the comfort of your own home.
