2. Motivational
A good trainer is flexible in their approach. Everyone is motivated in different ways. Some love to feel like they are getting pushed by a drill sergeant in the military, while others would prefer a bit of positive reinforcement. Making sure that your needs will be catered to is important. If it’s not a good fit, don’t be afraid to keep
3. Proof
What is their track record? Do they have client success stories they can share or reviews? Do they have a testimonial of their own? Unless you are getting a great deal to be someone’s guinea pig, don’t waste your time with a newbie.
4. Education
Seek out someone that is not only going to give you direction, but that is going to teach you how to make fitness a part of your everyday life. They should be offering advice on how to be more active and how to change your eating habits to better mesh with your new healthy lifestyle.
5. Professionalism
Personal training is a service, and therefore, it should be treated as a business exchange. Many times, people offering high demand services such as this forget about professionalism. Make sure the trainer understands the importance of this and respects you, your time and your goals. Don’t let them fool you into believing that you need them more than they need you…unless of course they are offering you their services for free.
