Frequently Asked Questions
If I come to the
trainer's gym do I have to pay a gym fee in addition to the
trainers fee?
Yes. By "Trainer's gym" we are referring to a gym where I
regularly train clients.
Do I have to
join the trainer's gym and what are the gym fees?
No, you do not have to join the gym. You can pay a "daily fee"
which is usually $5 or $10 each time you come. We encourage this
option when you start working with a trainer until you decide
whether you want to continue. Often a gym will give you a free
guest pass for your first session. If you decide to continue you
can discuss directly with the gym options for discount daily
packages, or for monthly, quarterly or yearly memberships. These
fees are generally quite modest as compared with the high-end
health clubs.
I currently belong
to a gym. Can a trainer come to my gym to train me?
Yes, if your gym allows private personal trainers. You need to
ask your gym if they welcome independent trainers and, if so,
how much they charge you for the trainer to come in. Most gyms
will charge you for this.
I want to
workout at home, but I don't have any equipment. Will I be able
to
accomplish anything?
Yes. Of course, it is always better to have access to quality
cardio and resistance equipment. However, it depends upon your
condition and goals. A lot can be done with no equipment. Also
available by mail order is a range of excellent home equipment,
including resistance bands, ankle weights, dumbells, balls and
other easily stored and relatively inexpensive, yet effective
items. Depending on the program that we come up with I'll be
glad to bring equipment into your home to maximize the training
session.
