buckz623 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Guys with regards to personal trainers they are not going to be cheap, in my experience the cheapest you will find is maybe £25 per hour, if you go to ondon they charge anything upto £100 per hour, personal trainers are not only there to go running with you in the park but they put together fitness programs for you over 4, 8 or even 12 weeks, they work with you and give you advice on eating, exercises, lifestyle. The money that you par for a personal trainer is not just fot that 1 hours work, its for all the hours they put in to putting your programs together, researching information to give you the best training. Hope this gives people an idea as to what goes on with a personal trainer, any questions, let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckz623 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I am getting the vibe that many people dont agree with what personal trainers do and that you dont get what your paying for, I'd be interested to here your views and opinions on this subject Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiSiSi Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Surely it's a personal choice. If you choose to 'employ' a PT then you choose to pay the going rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckz623 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 yes that is very true Si, but some people see it in a different way unfortunatly, as a personal trainer myself and from speaking to various people i just want to see what the general feel about it all is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiSiSi Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 If it's motivation that's lacking wouldn't joining a club with structured activitities and set times provide it? I'm surprised that 'you know who' hasn't popped up yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefkicker Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 If it's motivation that's lacking wouldn't joining a club with structured activitities and set times provide it? I'm surprised that 'you know who' hasn't popped up yet! You know who is here!!! Dont say my name 3 times in front of a mirror. Regarding groups that do structured activites, for example with kickboxing some people dont want to be part of a group or may feel shy to begin with. I myself operate a private lesson service. Now people book me or one of my team of Black Belt instructors for the hour, it could be just one person it could be two people or it could be a small group. Now the benefits of booking a kickboxing instructor for private lessons are as follows: 1. You get more one on one attention. 2.You can decide what exactly you want to concentrate on and tailor the lesson to your needs. 3.You can have that instructor and choose to keep him just for your group for the hour. 4.You pretty much have the gym to yourself more often than not.

chem1st Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I'd spend about £20 on a pair of trainers. Shering them isn't my thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
