    I used a trainer for a while when I first started to get healthy. As someone who had spent very little time in a gym before, I found the trainer was a great help in teaching me what to do and how to do it safely.

    What are your opinions on personal trainers and is this a good idea?

    Personal trainers are great for coming up with a plan, teaching you the PROPER way to do exercises and lift weights (to avoid getting hurt), and help you meet your goals. I personally go to one regularly, but now that I know how to do all of the exercises, I do them on my own and just check in once a month to learn more exercises and get some recommendations. Definitely worth every penny.

    Thanx you guys, I spotted one trainer at my gym and he is go getter, he mostly works with woman by the looks of it, and they sure do suffer. I booked my first week with him and this afternoon is my 1st session:tongue:

    Hope it went great!! Lifting is a great addition to the work out!
