Benefits of 1-on-1 Attention When Working Out

When you work with a personal trainer in private, one-on-one sessions, you get their full attention during every workout. Your personal trainer has the chance to watch every exercise from a multitude of angles to make sure you’re getting the most from your workout, and they will help you stay on track to achieve your goals. While personal training may not be as high-energy or community based as group sessions or group fitness classes, the trade-off is certainly worth it. A personal trainer can spot movement deficiencies and correct them faster than in group settings and provide more feedback on your progress than any other virtual offering you could subscribe to.

Here are a few additional benefits of working one-on-one with a personal trainer:

1. Increased Accountability: Having a personal trainer solely focused on your journey will improve your commitment to achieving your goals. Scheduled appointments and out-of-session communications make sure your goals stay front and center even when the going gets tough.
2. Tailored Focus: Most group workouts are built for the average attendee. But what if you’re above average or just starting out? Your personal trainer will ensure each exercise, set, and rep meets your needs and abilities, helping you reach your goals more effectively and efficiently.
3. Adaptability: Personal trainers can adapt your workout on the fly if needed. Have a sore hip or shoulder from the last workout, a bad night’s sleep, or are running late? They have the skills to adjust the workout, so you don’t go too hard when you have already had a stressful day or increase the intensity if you’re crushing your workout. Adjusting along the way allows you to get exactly what you need from each session.
4. Immediate Feedback: Whether you’re having trouble mastering a movement or need a push to bust through a plateau, your personal trainer will be there to tell you exactly what to do to make it happen. They pay close attention to your form, technique, and posture as you move and can correct any deficiencies in movement you may be experiencing.
5. Personal Connection: Working in a one-on-one setting tends to foster a strong relationship between the personal trainer and client. This allows the personal trainer to better understand your motivations, goals, and obstacles which will help them in optimizing each of your training sessions and provide a more tailored approach to achieving your goals.
