Looks effective but you have got to ask youself. How long do you think it will be before you get sick of that expensive peice of equipment before you sell it. Then how many years at your local gym would that have gotten you.

A personal trainer takes the time to know YOU as a person, what your fitness goals are, what you enjoy doing and what you don't, your personal strengths and weaknesses, etc.  \n\nShe then designs a workout for you which will help you achieve your goals and challenge you without making you give up.  This workout can evolve as you gain strength and endurance.  She might work out with you or just guide you.  \n\nMy trainer works out with me once a month. In between I work out 3x a week on my own for 80 minutes each time.  I talk to her at least once a week to tell her how I'm doing and if I have any questions or problems.  When we work out together, she goes over whatever new concepts she introduced last time to make sure I'm doing those exercises correctly and then teaches me something new or a more challenging way to do an existing exercise.

You asked for a fitness guru?\n\nHere I am!\n\nMany people have great intentions on going to the gym this winter, but I bet at least 75% won't even make it in for their free appointment. \n\nThe sad thing is, the same 75% who won't make it in, are the same ones who last year didn't make it to the gym.\n\nSo many people wast money by not using their gym memberships, IT DRIVES ME CRAZY.\n\nIn order to tone your arms, you also need to work the body parts around your arms (shoulders, back, chest, abs, biceps, triceps.) \n\nI would rather you do multi-joint or multi-muscle exercises (exercises that target multiple areas at once) instead of doing isolation exercises. \n\nThe theory behind my method is two fold. \n\n1. You won't have to spend 2 hours in the gym to "hit" every area, instead you could spend 30-45 minutes. \n\nBy cutting back on time you are more likely to look forward to going to the gym as opposed to dreading the gym visit.\n\n2. You are more likely to burn more fat, which will allow you to see more of your toned muscles.\n\nMultijoint exercises will burn more calories in a lesser amount of time than isolation exercises do.\n\n\nIf you don't believe me:\n\nProve me wrong. \n\nSpend 6 weeks doing isolation\n\nthen \n\nspend 6 weeks doing multi-joint\n\nI betcha I win.

Must of the Gyms have Instructors that can set up a working out program suit for your needs, and they should guide you at the beginning of you work out sessions, first timers always get to walk trough out to Know the best machines that will work best for you..ASK and see if they have such programs on your GYM..  GOOD LUCK AND GOOD HEALTH...

You asked the identical question twice?  Not sure which you will read.\n\nRemember when considering any of the "quick and easy" weight loss diet pill suggestions... if something sounds too good to be true... it probably is, particularly if you have to pay for it.\n\nYou are welcome to look at my 360 Blog of September 10 if you want some aggressive but realistic suggestions for improving fitness.\n\nAloha

No, i have had a personal trainer for 3 years and am currently studying to be one myself. Trust me, if you stick to the plan he gives you and show results that is all the thanks they need but still Thanks for the guidance goes along way. Nevertheless, i give my trainer a bonus in a christmas card every year for his efforts.

I don't know that much about them but my roommate does have one. I started dieting in Jan this year and I worked out (First time excercising in a year)for an hour straight! I felt like I got a work out and I was all sweaty but I didn't feel anything after I was done! I would think for not working out in a year my legs would be sore or something! It's easy but I don't know how much it actually works!

Waaayyy too much information for the space we're given to answer you with.  But I can suggest a very good book that's worth every penny you'll spend on it:  "High Intensity Training the Mike Mentzer Way."  I've been a personal fitness trainer for years, and Mike explains things with more accuracy than many of the training materials/medical documentation  I've researched.  Just don't expect to hear the same old stuff muscle magazines tell you to do--what you'll get is a very well-organized and logical approach to the subject of building muscle, as opposed to a rehash of confusing information from the latest Weider publication.

Find a good gym with a fitness trainer and listen to what they have to say. A combination of wieght training and cardio workouts will get you in shape in no time. It is good to start out with some instruction. Most gyms will have someone who can get you on the right track for a reasonable amount.

I found quite a few resumes of trainers who worked for (or are alum) of "24 Hour Fitness." I used boolean search strings on Google, Yahoo and MSN. (Check out the tinyurl links cited under "sources."\n\nHave you considered tracking these personal trainers through local/statewide associations? If not, I have added a link to those associations.\n\nUS Trainer Search is a directory for these types as well, but you have to subscribe to their service. (Link added as well.) I have never used it, so I can not personally vouch for it. \n\nOther sites you may want to explore are Hireatrainer, Personal Trainer Direct and Pecs N Abs. \n\nAs a side note, if you are ever looking to find these types just out of school, try CNI College. That link is listed as well. \n\nLast but not least, if you like to learn more techniques for finding candidates to recruit, check out The Digability Blog. \n\nThe Digability Blog\nhttp://digability.blogspot.com

I hope you realize that any person can claim to be a fitness athlete or a gymnast, but "heavy" persons who claim to belong to this category are going to be unconvincing examples.\nYou'd probably do better trying to motivate them by expounding on the benefits of a healthy body and a healthy lifestyle. Don't resort to cheap gimmicks.

frankly i dont think so. bcos singaporeans arent so into getting toned and buff yet. Also PT's are usually hired by the rich people. And they'd rather get one from known gyms. All ur average singaporean does to keep fit is jogging or swimming or hit the gym on their own. Demand for PT isnt there yet.

I've had a trainer for about a month, and it's done wonders for the way I see my body.  I haven't really been dieting as I should, so my goals haven't been accomplished, as of yet, but I would definitely recomend a trainer- even if it's only for a few sessions to get you started on how to use machines and what's best for your body.

I went to a gym, they were really helpful and not at all snooty.  They devised an excellent programme for me!\n\nI also typed in 10 minute excercises into Google, that came out with some good sites
