Their are numerous benefits to hiring a personal trainer. Motivation, instruction, someone who can give you the tools you need to reach your goals. Trainers will set up individualized programs specifically set up for their client. People who just want to learn proper technique and form. Athletes who want to take their performance to the next level. People who are coming off an injury or have postural or muscular imbalances. Or anyone who just wants to live a healthier life. The best athletes in the world all work with trainers to keep them at their highest level of performance. Someone to hold you accountable for your workouts and diet. The best feeling as a personal trainer is watching someone achieve their goals. Watching people change thier eating habits and lifestyle is very gratifying.


 Muscle takes more energy to maintain than fat. So the more muscle you build the more calories your body will burn to maintain the muscle. This is why lifting weights is so important to fat loss. You can do cardio an hour or two everyday and burn calories, but if your not doing any weight training you will burn as much muscle  as fat. This might get the scale to drop but will do little to change body composition. A good combination of strength, resistance, cardiovascular, and HIIT (high intensity interval training) is the best for fat loss. The goal is to keep all the muscle we can and burn all they fat. Have a healthy and happy Sunday and don't forget to go to the gym:)
