personal training

According to Fitness Australia, there are over 28,000 registered personal trainers in Australia. Of these, approximately 30% reside in NSW and of these the majority could be classed as personal trainers in Sydney. 

If you are looking for some personal training in Sydney and you are reading this article, it is more than likely due to a Google search involving keywords such as "personal trainer Sydney" or "personal trainer Sydney CBD."

I would like to offer you my opinion, despite the potential bias, on the three most important things to look for in a personal trainer. That way, regardless of whether you choose to engage my personal training services or continue on your google expedition you will be well equipped to make the right decision.

1. You must like the person. The reality is that unless you are James Packer and train outdoors with your earphones during personal training sessions, you will need to talk to your trainer. It makes it a lot more enjoyable if you have shared interests, a similar sense of humour and can have a decent conversation about the things in life that you enjoy.

2. Experience and qualifications. Unfortunately, the industry has dropped its standards regarding the minimum requirements to become 'qualified.' Thus, some people can begin training clients after only eight weeks in a classroom. While you certainly don't need to be a genius to count to 10, a high level of qualification helps when you start to encounter injuries or plateaus with your training. Pattern recognition develops over many years and becomes an increasingly important attribute in your trainer when your body doesn't respond to the textbook way of thinking. Experience ensures you receive the right advice.

3. Convenience and flexibility. Long-term compliance with exercise and nutrition programs correlates highly with convenience. You may have the best program in the world, but it means nothing if it is too difficult for you to execute. Therefore, it helps to choose someone who is close to your home or workplace, and it helps if they can actually understand your life schedule in order to set plans that are sustainable for the long term.
