5 Ways to Help Your Personal Trainer Help You

1) Take ownership of your fitness plan.   
Clients often blame their trainers when they don't meet their fitness goals. Examine your diet and work out at full intensity to get the effect of what a trainer coaches in the gym. 

2)   Help to motivate yourself
Only your attitude can move you from level to level.  

3)   Keep your own workout diary.
Clients often expect trainers to take notes about their programs during workouts.   Experts say that if you take your own notes, you'll better understand what you've written and are more apt to follow the tactics that your trainer teaches.

4)   Help your trainer load bars so when you're out of town, you'll know what weight you use at home.

5) You will benefit from the quality of time in the gym, not quantity.
People tend to think that just hangin' out with a trainer will help get them into shape. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

Now, go out there - take charge of your fitness and enjoy it!
