Is a personal trainer worth the money?

Yes, according to Gideon Remfry. And not just simply because he is one.
“Men seeking to get fit – especially if they’ve not done anything since they left school – should go and get a good, well-qualified, really reputable personal trainer. That way they’ll get a whole lot more out of their training because they will get it right straight away. Even if they don’t stick with him or her forever, they’ll stand less chance of getting injured, will stay better motivated and because the trainer will be able to address all sorts of areas of the workout they otherwise wouldn’t have known existed, it will have much more focus and do them much more good.
“Also, they will get access to the newest technology and the newest training techniques, because a good personal trainer will keep up with what’s going on in the word of fitness and see how it can be applied to their clients. Then go and see a nutritionist, to get advice on what you should be eating to complement your programme and what supplements you should be taking.
“Of course, there are some pretty terrible trainers out there who will do you more harm than good. It’s best to go on personal recommendation and for a limited period of time at first.” If you are going to take one on, the best way is through personal recommendation. Then make sure they are going to include nutrition advice with your traininng and they have a knowledge of basic physiotherapy. Ask for a trial before committing long term.
