Did you know that over 75% of people who exercise regularly tend to be happier and have greater success in their lives? Exercise will not only help you get your body back in shape, but hundreds of studies have also proven how it positively impacts people’s mental health.
All it takes to get back into fitness is a bit of commitment and a sprinkle of persistence.
If you are unsure where to start, we have the perfect solution for you – a private, personal trainer.
Except for its mental and psychological benefits, regular exercise is a fundamental part of staying healthy. Doctors say that around 2.5 hours of moderate exercise or 1.25 hours of vigorous physical activity spread over a week duration should be enough ward off diseases like cancer, maintain a healthy weight, reduce the risk of heart disease and combat type 2 diabetes.
Regular exercise is thus fundamental if you want to stay healthy and age well, which means having the least health complications possible as you grow older.
Movement and exercise improve your blood circulation and keeps the joints and tendons in a healthy working condition. Regular movement is important to ensure all parts of your body keeps its mobility and agility, which is needed in performing everyday tasks like picking up a box. It is also proven that active muscles are more effective in protecting the body against the impact of more fatal injuries. If you fall your muscle responsiveness will be better, balancing your body while activating fast-twitching muscle fibres to react.
Fitness is also important for social reasons. We want to feel good about ourselves when we meet new people or get introduced to new social environments. This confidence comes easier to people who exercise frequently. With more exercise also comes a greater body awareness and the moment a newcomer to exercise experience the benefits they will try and find ways to to get even more from their workouts. Some start to adapt their diet, make friends who have the same fitness interests, and many adapt their lifestyles to make their health a priority.
A personal trainer is the perfect partner for any beginner, or someone who wants to spruce up their fitness plan. Not only will a personal trainer ensure you have the basic warm-ups in each session, but they will also provide you with a training program that is suited to your personal fitness ambitions.
What are my personal fitness ambitions you might ask?
Well, these change over time, especially once people start to develop a love for certain types of exercise. Generally, a fitness program will be tailored to what you want to achieve with exercise.
Some of the most common fitness goals include:
- Losing weight and toning muscles
- Gaining muscles
- Training for an event
- Cardiovascular health and fitness
Having a clear goal in-mind will help your personal trainer to help you with a more effective programme. They will demonstrate each new exercise to you, especially if it’s a gym trainer where some weight training is involved. You can also consult a gym trainer on Superprof if you want to do body weight exercises at home.
The first thought when someone mentions a personal trainer is that it might be expensive. Luckily, with Superprof we’ve dealt with that problem and our process is transparent and convenient where we allow trainers and coaches to set their own price.
If you searched for a ‘fitness trainer near me’ you’ve landed at the right place. We list trainers of all backgrounds and experience levels right here. You choose your budget, you set-up classes at a time that’s convenient to you and deal directly with them once you are happy to continue classes.
This means you can get the experience and guidance of a professional trainer at a fraction of a cost. Your personal training won’t be linked to monthly contracts, unless you and your trainer eventually agree on that, and if you choose to you can do your training sessions online in the comfort of your own home.
Most of our trainers also offer in-person classes if that’s your preference. Plan to meet your trainer at the gym, they can do that as well if your gym allows it. Most gyms in South Africa might restrict an external gym trainer to help clients on their facilities.
Are you ready to commit to a brand-new chapter in your life?
A Superprof personal trainer will give you the edge you need to lose weight, look and feel great. Try and find someone who you think you’ll have chemistry with, who has the experience and qualifications suited to your needs and with the pricing and availability to make fitness easy in your life.
