I was considering hiring a trainer to help with my goals of figure competition goals and diet plans, of course I would be looking for one that is a figure competitor that offers a training service to individual clients out of state. Im not having any luck where I am now, that is why I was considering using someone online, by phone, etc, I know there are many out there that offer this, but Im curious has anyone ever hired a trainer using this method? And how did it work out?

    There are many trainers on MFP who are pretty helpful. If you can catch us, I think most will be happy to help. And the price is right. LOL

    about a year ago, I used one that was offered through my health insurance called somthing similar to a "wellness program." My experience was very positive. I had a 1 hour call per week for 6 weeks. We talked about everything from exercise to nutrition to dieting and ended each call with a discussion focused on goals - missed, achieved and long term.

    It worked for me. I do not have the person's name anymore as it was a long time ago, however the experience was very positive. I would recommend you make sure it works for you, or that time will be wasted if nothing else.

    Difference - in person motivation is immediately received through interaction. On phone or internet, the discussions need to be remembered when you leave the computer or telephone.
