    I went to one for about 6 months and he was 30 per session for 1 hour. Also I had another guy that was going to do it for 25 per session.

    My suggestion, see what his contract is like. I never had to sign one, but I would start there first.

    He doesn't have contracts which is a bonus...I can quit at anytime!

    It really depends on the skills, education, and certification of the trainer. I have been training with an awesome trainer from urban active for about 14 months (well this is the 3rd trainer over the last 14 months…But, he’s helped the most through my journey) and I have paid $175 monthly and the first 3 months I meet with him 3x wkly for 30 mins and as the time went on the sessions changed etc, etc. I am now training with him on his personal time at another gym and he charges me $35 hr. I am sure I am getting a deal since we are now friends. But, honestly if you can afford$60hr and the trainer is legit I say: go for it, it can be the BEST investment you will ever make. GOOD LUCK!! Losing weight and getting healthy= 80% eating healthy/eating RIGHT and 20% exercise.

    I definitely agree with this! Mine is not only my trainer, but my nutritionist and will be my coach for my upcoming competition, too. I'd say really good deal/investment, because I am not having to hire the other 2 now. :happy:
