No Gym No Problem.
In the current climate with stay at home orders and unexpected lockdowns gyms and studios have essentially closed. Not to mention gym goers' apprehension in wanting to visit once they are open, limiting access for those used to going to the gym for their regular exercise and workouts. What are the alternatives to going to the gym or access to personal trainers in these challenging times?
For those with self-discipline it’s not too difficult to continue some kind of fitness regime at home. There are plenty of guides available online that show innovative ways to use household items to replace equipment usually found in a gym, alternatively there are plenty of workout routines widely available to follow too. Despite this availability, it is still easy to stop and turn off that online session, some of the best also charge a fee for access and in many cases the workouts just aren’t specific enough to see real results. Another downside is that these online resources are only one way, and customers do not have the opportunity to ask questions or get invaluable feedback in real time.
Thankfully many personal trainers are now offering one on one training sessions online via Zoom or other video sharing services. The benefits of this personalised and tailored service is that the session is a two-way process with programmes customised to each individual's requirements. The online personal training format is growing in popularity and fast. Customers love the personal attention to detail whether it’s nutritional advice or workouts tailored to specific objectives. The customer also gets to ask questions in real time with the personal trainer present, to adapt and adjust the session, depending on the needs of the client at the time.
The benefits of using an online personal trainer are primarily the convenience of scheduling sessions at any time in the comfort of the customer's own home. This in turn eliminates most people's barriers to training and gives them a much better chance of achieving their health and fitness goals. Using Zoom or other convenient video Apps the live one on one sessions can be done on a phone, tablet, laptop or other device. Personal trainers demonstrate movements and exercises, teaching, guiding, coaching, educating, inspiring and motivating their clients to achieve more just as they would do in person.
In selecting an online personal trainer, customers should choose wisely by picking those who are already providing their service online and have suitable experience using this format and being familiar with the technology available. A good online personal training provider will usually offer a variety of video streaming services, so the customer can select the one they are most comfortable and familiar with.
There is now no excuse not to continue with your exercise programme because of a lack of gym facilities or lockdowns. Online personal trainers are widely available and are providing an invaluable service in these difficult times, at a time when your health and fitness is paramount.
