SO I have been working out consistently six times a week and getting 3 days of cardio and 2 days of weights. I am feeling good, but I need to step up my running endurance if I am going to compete in a triathlon in August. Some of you might be reading this thinking, "why do you need a trainer? you seem to be doing fine?". We all get a trainer for different reasons. I want a trainer to kick my ass and break my mind block that I can't be a runner. Other people need a trainer to get them started and educate them on what they should be doing. I will be meeting a trainer on Monday (Valentines Day). I am not excited about my trainer. The trainer I wanted to be with is not at my gym anymore - probably because she did not have enough clients. I just don't think trainers do enough to sell themself. Here are some things I wish my trainer did:
1. Wrote a blog and gave me resources to help me live a health life, or find new moves or good recipes
2. email with me and find out about who I am and what I want out of my training sessions, maybe even follow-up between sessions
3. asked me what kind of trainer I want and what I expect to get out of the sessions
I wish I could follow my class instructors on FB or Twitter, then I would know if they were going to be at class or if they had a HORRIBLE sub. I had to get that out.
Post Update: I met my trainer and let me just say I have once again learned not to make assumptions...I am happy about my trainer - she says her speciality is glutes which is good because I want my booty back!
