Movement, wellness & inspiration
Twenty years of coaching, distilled into the ten reasons working with a trainer changes everything.
I've now been a personal trainer and coach for over 20 years and there is nothing I'd rather do for my career. I've had the opportunity to work closely with individuals and help them achieve their goals, transform their habits, and their lives.
The relationships I've formed through this career path have added joy and color to my life. Personal training is a truly symbiotic relationship, so as I write about the ways a personal trainer is beneficial, please know I could also write about all the benefits I receive from being a personal trainer.
Here are the top 10 reasons why having a personal trainer makes a world of difference:
Guidance. Personal training goes beyond guidance in form and technique alone. You may be introduced to new forms of movement or ways of thinking that positively impact your life. We offer guidance in training, nutrition, healthy habits, and mindfulness. Oftentimes in a training session, we don't just discuss training alone, we discuss life.
Accountability. Having an appointment with someone helps you get through the tough days when you just don't feel like training. An appointment with your personal trainer holds you responsible to show up and stay committed to your goals. Over time, it gets easier and easier until training is part of your lifestyle and something you look forward to.
Progression. Your personal trainer ensures your program challenges you, but does not push you over your limit. You progress safely and steadily so your results are sustainable.
Support. We all need support in the process of transformation. At Vida Movement we are on this journey with you every step of the way checking in, providing weekly action steps, and cheering you on.
Time efficient. 50 minutes of focused work that is completely personalized to you is better than 90 minutes of random movement.
Effective. Train for your goals, your body, your lifestyle every training session. Each and every session is designed around YOU. There's no random exercises that aim to simply impress or entertain you. Everything is backed by science and intent.
Safety. Safety is always our first priority. At Vida Movement we progress you and regress or modify exercises as needed.
Privacy. Big commercial gyms or jam packed group classes aren't for everyone. Vida Movement offers a warm, welcoming environment that offers privacy and personalized training.
Coaching. Movement is so much more than exercise alone. It's forming a mind-body connection and discovering how to integrate the lessons learned in your training session to your daily life.
Fun. “Play is the highest form of intelligence.” When we are comfortable, feel safe, seen, and heard, we can let go of tension in the body and mind and be open to creating new neural connections and movement patterns that facilitate progress and growth.
