Everything these days is online
Shopping is online, working is online, even dating is online
And with our forever increasing busy lifestyles, and our love of technology, the next thing that is becoming more and more popular online is Personal Training!
Why?
Because people are always busy doing “stuff”, we are finding less time to exercise, eat healthy and generally look after ourselves.
So we tend to miss out on our exercise, choose foods that aren’t giving our bodies the goodness it needs, forget to hydrate properly, and stay up until the early hours, which means sleeping a lot less.
Our energy levels then suffer because of this, and it’s just a never ending vicious circle.
All this culminates in us being more overweight & stressed out, even to the point of anxiety and depression.
In other words, we’re becoming less healthy and slowly killing ourselves in the process.
So how will Online Personal Training help you?
We all know that having one-to-one Personal Training can be expensive, with some trainers charging up to £150 per hour. But, with online training it can be much more affordable, and you’d still get the same degree of knowledge, help and accountability but for a fraction of the price.
With online training your workouts and coaching are laid out and available to you 24/7. So you can access them when and wherever it’s convenient for you, some can even be accessed via a mobile app.
Having an online Personal Trainer deliver you a workout program and coaching to you electronically means that you can access either or both on your mobile devices (laptop, tablet or phone) at any time and in any location, which is perfect for those that travel frequently or do not want to be restricted by gym opening hours, or aren’t keen on attending a gym at all.
If you are motivated by the energy of the gym, complete your workouts there. If you feel more comfortable in the privacy of your own home, then go for it in the garage or living room or wherever is most convenient for you.
And rather than just seeing your trainer once or twice a week for your ‘session’, they would be there to help guide you with your nutrition and lifestyle habits, and keep you accountable every day week in/week out. This can be done via regular emails and/or phone calls or Skype calls.
I’ve had one-to-one clients who have trained really well in the time that they’re with me, but then gone away and neglected other things which haven’t got them the results that they’re after, resulting in a lot of upset and frustration.
As most of us know, the key to success is not necessarily how many workouts we do every week but more about the other factors in our lifestyles, like nutrition, hydration, how much sleep we have, how we deal with stress etc.
These things can make a massive impact in our quest to be in better shape, have more energy day to day and lead happier lives.
By putting this all together via an online platform, trainers can then offer bespoke workout plans, alongside personalised nutrition plans/guidelines, and include regular assessments, food diary reviews, lifestyle coaching and many other services to cover all the bases. This makes tracking much easier for both the client and trainer too, as everything is in one place, and easily manageable.
Another great benefit of having an online trainer is that even before you hire them you can look around and choose the correct one that you feel is right for you, by going on their website and seeing if they speak ‘your language’, have maybe had the same struggles themselves in the past, and are the right fit for what you’re looking for.
Most of the time when people hire a one-to-one Personal Trainer in a gym they don’t always tend to go with the one that will help them reach their goals best, and one that may not fully understand their needs. Because they might have just seen them around the gym, or just picked up one of their business cards.
So to summarise, the advantages to having an Online Personal Trainer are –
