Congratulations!

You have decided to take the next step in your fitness trip and work with a fitness instructor or personal trainer to help you reach your goals - faster, safer, and for less time.

The question arises: How to choose the most suitable professional who will be able to meet our individual needs, expectations, and deliver a quality service to be satisfied with?

A statistically average person who is not an instructor or trainer can not really tell whether the coach he or she is heading to is good or not.

Unless you are well informed in the specific field, it is extremely difficult to distinguish and make the right choice.
It can be assessed on the basis of how busy a person is, how many clients there are, financial status, but based on these criteria, you will certainly not be able to make the most optimal choice.

 

Thinking about your profession and how many people you know in this area are really good at work? Probably not many, maybe 5 or 10%. The same logic applies to fitness instructors - even with greater force, as there is hardly any barrier to entry - anyone can become a coach.

Then how do you know if the fitness instructor you liked is the most appropriate choice?

• Is he a good instructor if he has a good body? It is not mandatory, as genetic factors and prohibited substances can significantly affect.

• Is he a good coach if there are tons of certificates? Again, much of the information is obsolete or more applicable in a laboratory than in the real world.

• Is he a good instructor if he has good-looking clients? We all have experienced coaches who offer a certain amount of money before and after pictures in order to inspire confidence without contributing to the specific change.

 

# 1: Did you ask questions about history, such as health problems and workouts, injuries, injuries, and more. before starting a joint venture?

Factors for achieving fitness results are complex. This is also the reason why over 95% of those who started a diet fail.

It is not possible for 1 diet to work effectively for everyone and for this reason, it is necessary to take into account a number of factors such as the trainer's abilities, previous injuries or traumas, experience with diets or diets and other individual features.

# 2: Do you track the way you move and progress?

 

From our practice, we have found that this is the biggest motivator for maintaining the trainer's interest in training, diet and stricter adherence to specific guidelines.

People who have purchased a regimen from another fitness instructor and have received a diet or training program are constantly associated with me - with no clear guidelines, no feedback, and no regime change.

Here, guilt is often not only a personal instructor. You need to ask in advance questions and clarify every detail - what includes and what does not include the service offered. So the idea of this material came up, after reading that you will know exactly what questions to ask and how to make a more correct choice.

 

# 3: Can they explain everything written in the programs they sent - specific exercises and why they need what their information is based on, and make an appropriate change if needed?

For most clients, it is not enough to get directions on what to do without understanding the whole process.

Desire and concentration when we have a clear goal and know exactly what is needed to achieve this goal is an extremely powerful weapon.

If your personal trainer cannot explain in a language you understand, why you do not need to consume certain foods before training or make fasting cardio to burn fatter, it is a serious minus.

 

# 4: Do you encourage yourself to progress and look for new challenges when improving your skills?

The most popular service on the web is a 90-day transformation or a 90-day program.

The problem with it comes from the fact that after a month, you have made efforts, have achieved results and have improved your personal skills and abilities.

In this case, in order to continue to progress and work as efficiently as possible to achieve your goal, a change in nutrition and/or training is often required. Examples of such changes are replacing easy exercises with more difficult, adding intermediate meals to adjust weight, and so on.

 

If you make progress and change weight and measures, as well as improving your physical abilities, while not having to make any changes to your nutrition or training, you hinder your progress significantly.

# 5: Can they answer your questions in a way that is understandable to you instead of trying to sound too complicated?

There is no way one can know the answer to absolutely every question, even if it is in his field. But it is not appropriate to mask an ignorance with a vaguely given or even more with false and misleading information.

 

It is much more important for an instructor to be able to do research and to add value to your progress instead of your ego.

If you have been repeatedly in this situation - consider it another serious minus.

# 6: Do you feel better after working with an instructor for a while?

This is about tackling or improving a health problem, better sleep, better stand, more energy for everyday tasks, self-esteem, appetite regulation, and more.

 

# 7: Do you look better after working with an instructor for a while?

In this case, it means less subcutaneous fat, more muscle mass, a stiffer and athletic body, improved motor culture, and more.

# 8: A combination of the list listed before

At the beginning of the article, there were 3 questions starting with "Is he a good instructor if ..."

Although I advised you not to use them as a baseline, a combination of:

Good-looking sports physics
Various activity-related certificates
Cups, medals, and awards behind her
Does not pretend to know more than everyone, but when they ask it response
Visibly satisfied and well-looking customers
 

The list above is not completely comprehensive, but if you can find answers to a large number of questions, you will have done a better study than 95% of people who have been asked for a personal trainer.
