Why A Personal Trainer Is Better Than A BFF

OK, so maybe you don't have to pay your best friend to hang out with you, but it's worth dishing out the dough for a certified personal trainer. The first thought you're having is, "Personal trainers are too expensive." Ask or shop around and you'll find gym memberships are really expensive, too — especially when you pay for them but never go. Diabetes, arthritis, obesity, injury, high blood pressure, heart disease, asthma, even pregnancy and other conditions are not reasons for you to stop exercising. A personal trainer knows how to help you safely reach your goals without compromising your health. What's more? They want it just as badly as you do.

Stand up your trainer and prepare for endless burpees. 

You can run late when you're meeting with girlfriends, but when you set an appointment with your trainer, you better be on the early side every time. This push for punctuality is to your benefit. If you're late, you're still paying them for the time, but you spend less of it with him or her. Perhaps 100 burpees or 10 minutes of uphill sprints will encourage you to set your clock back a few minutes. It's tough love (although they probably won't be yelling at you with a megaphone).

When you want something, but don't know how to get it

Hire a trainer. You want to lose weight, start a routine, learn how to work a barbell, improve your cardio endurance, train for a 5K, tone your thighs when you have bad knees, strengthen your core postpartum and so on forever and ever. A trainer will show you what you need to do. Maybe all you need is a session or two to jumpstart your routine. Tap into those resources, friend!
