When You Should Think About Hiring a Fitness Coach

We all understand that we should be exercising to keep our bodies fit, healthy and within the ideal weight range. Many of us make that New Year’s resolution to exercise more and maybe even join a gym, but the truth is, within weeks, our resolution has slipped and we’re back to living our usual sedentary lifestyle. So would hiring a fitness coach help? We think so, and we’re here to give you three scenarios where it could really give you a boost!

Hiring a Fitness Coach Southampton

If You Find the Gym Intimidating

Joining a gym is all very well, but a lot of people have no idea what to do when they get there. You’ll often get an introduction to the equipment in with your package, and may even get some pointers on the exercises you need to do to reach your goals. But after that, you’re often left to your own devices. That’s not always enough. You may ask yourself are you doing the right exercises and the right amount of them? Are you carrying out each one correctly, to gain maximum impact from them? All these are aspects that a good fitness instructor can help with.

They’ll work with you to assess your goals and come up with routines that will help you work towards them. They’ll show you how to use fitness equipment correctly to avoid injury and to work the right muscles at the right time. Before long, you’ll look like a seasoned expert and the gym will feel like a home from home!

If You’ve Been Exercising a While, but Aren’t Getting Results

Perhaps you’re pretty au fait with what’s available to you in the gym. You’ve been going for a while, but the effects just aren’t showing. In this case, your fitness coach can look at where you’re going wrong and suggest changes to your programme to turn things around. Equally, it’s easy to get stuck in the same old routine and this can get boring. That affects your motivation and you may find that you aren’t pushing yourself as hard as you should be or going as often as you should. Your fitness instructor can introduce new exercises and activities that will ramp things up, like HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) or joining boot camps. That can not only enhance the results you’re getting, but can also inspire you to do more and better.

If You’re Determined to Change Your Life

But the real value of a fitness coach is not just that they will recommend the right kinds of exercise classes and activities. They will also look at your goals more holistically. As well as recommending the right kinds of exercises and fitness classes, they will also consider aspects such as nutrition, when you exercise, how to build regular activity into your normal routine and even your mental outlook towards exercise. If you want to see lasting change to your lifestyle, there’s a whole lot more mileage in doing that with a fitness coach by your side than trying to do it yourself!
