Whether you want to get fitter, lose weight, or strive for more balance, it is always difficult to stay motivated over a long period of time. A qualified personal trainer ensures that you do not forget your goals and motivates you continuously.

Personal trainers are trained to teach you about exercise – not just how to do it, but why. And since fitness is 80% nutrition and 20% exercise, it is important to have a good eating plan – best done by someone who really knows it. Proper nutrition is fundamental to achieve your goals. Many are not aware of certain eating and drinking patterns and they overlook many calories, for example the one or two glasses of wine in the evening that do not allow you to lose weight despite you only have salad. Your personal trainer will find these weak points immediately.

Training with an expert who is perfectly versed in performing the exercises and the machines and equipment greatly reduces the risk of injuries in the gym. Injury can set you back months and take you far from your goal – countless people are injured from improper training and put their health and fitness at risk for long periods of time.

Universal solutions don’t work in fitness. A personal trainer tailors an individual training plan to your personal needs, wishes and goals. In addition, they accompany you on your journey, ensures that your technique is correct (and prevents injuries in the process) and drives out any training errors you may be accustomed to.

A personal trainer will certainly help you to get your dream body, but can additionally have a positive effect on your overall mental well-being. They are interested in how your week was and how you are doing – because your mood and lifestyle have a huge impact on your motivation and energy in the gym. It’s not uncommon to share your emotional baggage with your personal trainer – a bit like an unofficial therapist.
