Guest Guest Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Especially when you're a newbie to gym stuff and bulking up ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tacos Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 for bulking up, you just need proper nutrition, but for trimming down, you would need a personal trainer to help you with those last few reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aeiou Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 or just get a buddy with proper gym knowledge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yup Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Yes as form is extremely important. Those who carry heavy weights but have bad form will suffer as they get older. Back pain, neck pain etc... they wont get it now they will know hell 10 years later lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Benji Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I think it is. I was a personal trainer and you must let them earn by making you look good. Sadly im no longer a pity due to injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I’ve never used one and manage to get into pretty decent shape (yes 6-pack) without one. I get my info from magazines like Men’s Health and websites like Bodybuilding.com, and also blogs. Useful to mix things up to see what works. But I think it really depends on the individual. If the following applies to you, maybe you can consider getting one: - lack discipline or determination - don’t have basic information on training and nutrition / don’t know where to look or got no time to look for such information - not creative in designing your own workouts - complete newbie to any form of exercise However, if you speak to different PTs, they can hold vastly different perspectives. That’s because their opinions is an aggregation of their professional education and experience with different clients. My own experience is that mixing things up, both nutrition and exercise, is necessary to discover what YOUR body responds most to. A PT, being a professional, may save time and help to zoom in on what works, but people’s bodies are very different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomorrow Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Any good recommendations on PT (that you may have tried) - looking at form and eating right as getting older ! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudakFit Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Honestly speaking, anybody can be personal trainer. With intenet revolution anything is possible in the web. For a start, google, YouTube and have confidence in yourself. Feel motivate and u will get hang in there. So you do not need a personal trainer for bulking up etc...

thepresentfitness Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Information on internet and youtube is not reliable as there are overloads of information, some of which is not even correct. It is a good investment to get a PT if you desire results. Alternatively, why not invest in the knowledge yourself by pursuing Fitness Instructor or Personal Trainer Courses (which is what i did). Arm yourself with the correct Human Anatomy and Exercise Physiology knowledge to help change yourself, and maybe u can also carve out a career in the fitness industry. Quote Calm Relaxing Music.

azimuth Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 I found it useful to have a personal trainer for a while to kick start your training regime. Once you have understood the training methodology and know-hows, you can go solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
