xydboy Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Go google, there are lots of trainers out there. Do note that some do not come cheap. Consider the price, the experience of the trainer and also the constraints on equipment/training facility. melvinix 1 Quote Follow me at http://instagram.com/ytraymond =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost per PT session would be put upfront, and doubt the price is negotiable. Its unlike freelancers where they have nothing much to lose. People who sell PT sessions at the gym would earn part of the profit generated, and that cost is not set by them but the management. jdu 1 Quote Follow me at http://instagram.com/ytraymond =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with @ahp0ng and @xydboy, both has its points. 1) Depends on the PT who maybe a freelancer or someone working in the gym. Sometimes they can bend the rules a little if they want the biz and they want to do what they can to secure the biz. There are also the fitness books or online videos you can search for. But ultimately, is what kind of body type you want and also ur body shape that determines which direction to go from there. There also are some guys in the forum who are freelance PT Trainers. Maybe can look ard and ask them for some simple advice or take up a few sessions with them. Quote Life is like a river flowing into the sea, Love Life. Love, Joy and Peace.

If they are working in the gym and they bend the rules, it says a lot about the policies that the gym have and how much they "mark up" to allow people to charge cheaper. Just saying...

hunkchaser Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) If I am not mistaken, PT fees in commercial gyms depend on 'seniority' as well. Newbie trainers are cheaper than veterans of course. I got newbie trainer at Cali before (about two years ago), the rate was around $70 per 1hr session, excluding GST.

Guest Novice Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Yeah it is nice to hire a PT, form is so important to ensure u are squeezing the right muscle group when working out. My pt would always touch my muscles when I am working out to ensure I am activing them .. Mind muscle coordination is tough and it is good if you can find a PT that knows how to help u achieve that. If not, good luck.. May the muscle God bless you with gainz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 17, most likely don't have those sports science or anatomy degree/diploma, which is very important to help make gains quickly and avoid injury. They are also likely to train you like they train themselves - good for you if you are also a spring chicken but if you are uncle or past 30, your recovery pattern is totally unlike teens and tweens - these guys are like Wolverine.

Magenta_Lilies Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Heya all, I am morbidly obese and decided that I should really start a healthy lifestyle pronto! I have signed up for a gym membership at Energyone SAFRA and am wondering whether it will be good to get a personal trainer from the gym itself to help guide me on my road to a healthier me. OR is there anyone here who already is a member at Energyone SAFRA and is willing to provide me with some personal training in weight loss. Would appreciate the help!

xydboy Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Not sure if its appropriate for the person who is a member to train someone else at the gym. Under the rules and regulations, it should have stated on this point. If caught, it could ruined both his and your membership. Best if you could get the personal trainer from the gym itself. Firstly, you know what you are paying for, everything is black and white. The trainer at the gym is also qualified. So you can be rest assured that you receive whatever you are paying for.
