Has anyone ever used a personal trainer? If so what can I expect?

Theres a personal trainer in my community gym and im thinking of using her, but what can i expect? what kind of dietary changes as well?
Answer:
Some personal trainers will help you with diet, some will not. Mostly what personal trainers do is help you come up with a workout routine and show you the correct form for doing exercises. They should explain what parts of your body each exercise will work and help you if the weights get too heavy mid-set. They may help you do "forced reps" where they have you lift a weight that is too heavy, but they help you push the load. They should definitely encourage you to do your best and work hard. Once you know how to do the exercises, you are better off finding a training partner, because personal trainers are very expensive, especially if you use one from a gym. You might be able to find a private trainer who will charge less.
if she's good she'll show you how to do the exercises correctly, explain the importance of your diet (which will mean changes dependent on where you are now and where you want to be) and basically try and make things as clear and easy as possible to help you out.
I don't recommend using one. It depends on your goals. If it is lose weight: simply exercise for a minimum of 35 minutes, getting your heart rate to 150 beats per minutes.In everyday speak, this means, run about 7km everyday, or swim for 45 minutes everyday without stopping.If you want one to teach you how to do weight lifting (for safety reasons) then you definitely need one, because when you are doing olypmic squats, bench press (look these up on the net - they are weightlifting exercises). If you don't do them right you can seriously injure your back.So if you are using a PT to lose weight: don't get one (all the info you need is on the net). If it is for weight lifting: I hihgly recommend you get one.Either way, make sure you make your goals clear to the PT. I"m just trying to save you a little money.
My field is in fashion, as a result many people ask me how they can slim down. My answer is always the same: good diet and exercise. But I found this great product which I think helps a lot in the process. I recommend you check this website
http://www.hawkeyep.info , they have a free trial and you only pay 6.95$ shipping and handling. Good luck!
I have, if you can afford one, they are great. They
tell you what to eat,and what to stay away from, then
work with you in the gym or health club on specific
exercises that are good for the parts of your body
that need to get toned faster than other spots. They
do general exercises for complete body toning. They
are very enthusiastic and make you feel like it is fun
to do your work out. Karel
