How To Reap The Benefits Of A Personal Trainer Without Hiring One
Have you been thinking about hiring a personal trainer to help you reach your weight loss goals
? Do you feel that it's the only way to get your body where you want it? Well before you shell out the cash for one, consider how you can get the same results without the cost.
You probably already know what you need to do to lose weight right? The right exercises, the right eating plan...the only problem is that you can't seem to do it. If this is how you feel, your next step may not be an expensive personal trainer, but instead you need an accountability partner.
I'm sure you have friends that may have the same desire to lose a few pounds as you do. Use this to your advantage! Working on something all by yourself is a sure way to fail in the long run. We need accountability to be able to follow through with hard things like weight loss.
Find someone you know (maybe a friend or family member) that is knowledgable about exercising & eating healthy and ask them if they would be willing to call you once a week or maybe even once every couple days to see if you've been following through.
Open up your life to them and give yourself permission to be honest with them. If you lie and say you're doing things when you're not, what's the point?
Personal trainers do have their place and they can be a very valuable resource sometimes. But if all you need is someone to help you stick to a plan, try your pool of family and friends before you shell out a bunch of cash just for accountability.
