There are lots of different ways to exercise and no one likes to waste money, so weighing up the cost versus the benefits of personal training vs buying a membership to a gym makes a lot of sense.

So that begs the question: what are the benefits of personal training over buying membership to a gym?

In some ways, getting the help of a personal trainer while you are at the gym looks like the best of both worlds. However, good gyms are busy places, and, with so much going on around you, it can mean that you get less out of it than if you were training one-on-one in your own home or a local park.

Personal Training at Home

In your home, a trainer can concentrate fully on helping you achieve your best possible workout.

If time constraints are a worry, it’s simply a case of slotting your trainer in when it suits you. One of the benefits of personal training is that you don’t have to think of traveling time to and from the gym.

If you’re working out at home, a two-hour workout takes up two hours of your day. If you’re going to the gym, you need to factor in the time for the journey there, the workout, and then the journey home again.

With a personal trainer who comes to your home, you no longer need to consider the likelihood of traffic congestion when planning your exercise. You will not need to use your car, which is yet another saving in itself.

Quick Workouts

If you simply want a quick workout, you don’t have to plan it around the gym, which will have busy times and quiet times, and varying availability of the equipment.

All you have to do is call and book your trainer. He or she will come when it’s convenient for you.

By using the same personal trainer each time, which isn’t guaranteed at some gyms, your trainer will fully understand your strengths, weaknesses, and personality. He or she will be able to help you concentrate your efforts and make your workout as efficient as possible.

Using a personal trainer saves you time, money, and travel frustration, at the same time as ensuring that you get a better workout than when left on your own.
