A personal trainer is a professionally qualified fitness coach who creates bespoke fitness programmes for their individual clients based on each client’s personal goals (e.g. weight loss, muscle gain). They will instruct, demonstrate, and advise you to use specific equipment (resistance, weights, machines etc.) or practise movements that simply relies on your own body weight to help you improve your fitness levels.

What should I expect during a personal training session?

Accepted Answer

You are likely to do a mix of cardiovascular and aerobic exercise during your personal training session.
