Myth #1: All personal trainers are the same
Many personal trainers use their business as an extension of their own workout routine. So, the client does the same exercises as the trainer. This is not appropriate for most people and is not true personal training. The entire concept of personal training is that it is designed around the needs and goals of the individual, not the trainer.
We have been in the health and fitness industry for over a decade and during this time we have accumulated a wide array of experience and qualification. On all of our exercise clients we perform a postural and biomechanical assessment that can take anything from an hour to 3 hours. We do this to identify exactly which is the best approach for your body.
We only perform functional exercise with our clients and there is a reason for each exercise. We take a scientific approach so that you get the best results in the least amount of time.
Myth #2: You need to be fit to see a personal trainer
We are delighted to work with everyone from the couch potato to the pro athlete.
We have been in the fitness industry for over a decade and we have lots of experience dealing with clients from all walks of life, at all stages of life. If you would like help or advice on how you can get fitter and healthier, whether it is for a specific sport or to enjoy life more.
Myth #3: I don’t have time to see a trainer
The truth is you don’t have time to waste doing an ineffective training program. If you are serious about wanting to achieve your health and fitness goals a personal trainer can help you achieve them in less time spent training every week than you could manage by yourself. Your programs can be flexible so you choose where and when you work out, making it easy to fit around your life. In reality, if you are short of time you can’t afford not to see a personal trainer!
Myth #4: It makes sense to train go and see a trainer with my friend and split the cost
If you are sharing a session with your friend then you are not receiving personal training. This may be OK if you are going for the social aspect or you just want a calorie dump without addressing any of your other fitness goals and are not worried about getting injured, but you will not be reaching your potential if you do the same training program as someone else. We all have different bodies, different exercise histories and different goals. If you are sharing a session you are not getting the most benefit from it.
Myth #5: You need to do all of your training in the gym with you
The more often you train with us the better we are able to direct your training to ensure you are using the correct technique and intensity to get the maximum benefit. But we understand that financially or due to time constraints it is not always possible for people to do all their training with us. If you need to do some of your training at home or in your local gym we can design you a program that you will be able to do with whatever resources you have available, so you can continue the good work between seeing us.
Clients often achieve more from coming to us to get a program designed that they can do at their own gym or in their own home, giving them the right exercise program to follow and make the right gains but be completely flexible and fit around their life.
