Feb 9, 2019 at 4:15 comment added CJ Dennis I have a PT for many of the reasons you mention: I lack the motivation to exercise regularly on my own, I lack the motivation to research routines and techniques, I can't tell when my form is good or bad, I am likely to stop too soon without someone encouraging me, I would be likely to focus too much in some areas and not enough in others.
Feb 9, 2019 at 2:20 comment added Chris I'd add to this, that a good personal trainer should actually tell a client to stop the exercise when their form starts to deteriorate. When people start working out on their own, most people will not have the experience to know when it is time to stop an exercise.
Feb 9, 2019 at 1:11 comment added Cort Ammon I will add to this that it is often difficult to observe how one is doing an exercise while doing it, especially when the exercise is pushing one's limits. Not only do personal trainers have a great deal of experience and education, but they're also not distracted by exercising while they do it!
