Why You Should Get A Fitness Trainer

-

I know there are applications out there that should help you get fit, but no application can replace human instincts which is something required for training since we all have different needs. 
If you are trying to get fit, you would need one of these: a personal fitness trainer or a gym instructor. The purpose of this post is establishing the pros and cons of the either options so you can make a decision on which is best for you. 

Whether they are male or female, the subject of sex is irrelevant but you might want to pick a trainer of same sex for various subjective reasons. 
The following comparative points should help you decide on an arrangement that is best for you:
  1. Personal trainers are usually more expensive than the gym subscriptions that come with instructors. This is because you pay for knowledge,time,mobilization and your comfort with personal trainers. 
  2. A gym instructor has you and a whole lot of others to take care of at a go. Hence the onus is on you to watch, learn and catch up. On the other hand, a personal trainer focuses on one client at a time, hence you are bound to learn faster at your own pace. 
  3. Gym subscriptions may come with other benefits like swimming although if you plan on building a personal gym, a personal trainer can build a gym that suits your need. 
  4. Working with one trainer over time might get boring, there's need to visit the gym to see new faces and indeed socialize for motivation. If you have to socialize, you might opt for a gym instructor. 
  5. To have a gym instructor,you must have paid a gym subscription which means you can workout anytime you like without booking or waiting on an appointment.
  6. With gym subscriptions, no one cares if you make it to the gym or not. On the other hand, a personal fitness trainer keeps you on your toes by constantly ensuring you make it to your sessions.
  7. Sometimes, going to the gym house might be inconvenient. The personal trainer comes in handy by giving you the required service at your home.
  8. If boundaries are not well managed, a personal trainer can go beyond training during a session but that responsibility falls on both parties. However, this is less likely with a gym instructor in a gym house.
  9. Some personal trainers use gym houses to train their clients, that's the best option for you since you'd get the benefit of socializing and the concentration provided by a personal trainer.

What's Best For You?
A good trainer is what's best for you. But there's more to gain from a personal trainer especially when they also use a gym house to train you. You get the benefits of a personal trainer and a gym instructor all in one. You get to socialize when you have to and also resort to your home when it's inconvenient to use a gym. If you can't trust yourself to constantly visit the gym, you should get a personal trainer as that's the best way to go. 

Luckily, I am a personal trainer who's willing to train you at any location of your choice and at the same time have a deal with a fitness Centre that would bring other benefits such as swiming. Signing up with me for a price of 20,000 NGN brings ample benefits such as :
  1. 24 hours gym service for a month with an available gym instructor. (Monday to Saturday). 
  2. Personal sessions with me twice weekly for the entire month. 
  3. Free swimming on any day of the week except Sundays.
  4. Free group trainings on Saturdays at the gym house.
  5. Home Training with me on any of your two days when you can't make it to the gym. 
You can also sign up for 15,000 NGN for the above benefits although home service is excluded and you only get a session with me weekly. Alternatively, you can sign up for 20,000 NGN for home service only. 
Please the above package is only available for residents of Port Harcourt, Nigeria. 
If you are located anywhere in Nigeria or Overseas you can follow my social media (Instagram,Facebook) for updates on trainings or events in your cities whenever I visit. You can also opt for workout plans (5,000 NGN/ $15) designed for you and online training (20,000 NGN/$60).

Her childhood sprinting career was cut short by a heart disease and Asthma but Dorathy Olali says, she's been inspired by testimonies of how fitness had helped others overcome certain health issues.

We Don't Workout For Fun

I saw a post from Sarah on Facebook about a sport clothing line her friend had just launched.  I quickly contacted Sarah indicating my interest to model for the line. Sarah was eager to hook me up, she said “after all nobody works out for fun”.  I had no idea Sarah knew I was working out but that statement got me confused because at the time, I was doing it all for fun.  I still workout for fun but for most people workout is no fun. At seventeen, I had began my fitness journey taking a cue from seventeen year old Tony, who was an aspiring model at the time. I had one goal then, “to have killer abs like Tony”.  At the age of 21, I was an aspiring model, I was a little ripped with a cute face to compliment but unfortunately, not enough height to win the mark. In a bid to improve my chances, I opted for a perfect skin, so I visited a so-called skin care expert. To cut a very long story short, I got my skin botched and that lead to depression. I wasn't going to lose all ...

Muscle Memory with Anita Ejiofor M. D

I am dedicating this article to Deji since he coined the phrase “muscle memory “ during the course of our discussion after he read my article on  body types  . Deji had recently returned to the gym after a five year hiatus, according to him, his gym mates were  quit suspicious about his massive and almost immediate gains since returning. He had thought perhaps genetics and the fact that he is predominantly a Mesomorph might have contributed to this.  After reading my article, he decided he was going to share it with his mates so they would understand why he was gaining faster than they did.  However, Deji had mentioned “muscle memory” as a reason for such gains since he had used a gym 5 years ago, although he didn't follow any routine per say or had a trainer to guide him. The question is? Is a month’s worth of work enough for muscle memory?  I have a friend who thinks he is naturally predisposed to growing muscles, he says “it runs in the family”. But apar...
