What are the benefits of an online personal trainer?
In general, working with a personal trainer allows you to have a totally customized fitness program, and the same is true when working with an online personal trainer. In fact, there are many ways that working with someone virtually is even better than face-to-face meetings.
1. Accessibility
In addition to being more affordable than in-person gym session with a trainer, an online personal trainer gives you the freedom to access your personalized plan wherever you go. I create workouts for you to do anywhere with minimal equipment or customize workouts that you can take into your local gym, while also incorporating activities like running and cycling. All of this adds up to a health and fitness plan that is catered to you, led by me.
2. Flexible communication
Unlike normal gym sessions, in which you really only have access to your trainer during your one-hour appointment, many digital fitness apps allow you to regularly be in touch with your trainer. With online coaching you have the ability to receive programming and communicate with me on an open platform and not be restricted by a set schedule and appointment time. Having a flexible schedule and communication option is key for building long-term success with your health and fitness goals.
3. Progress tracking
Since many online personal training platforms are connected to apps, you can easily track your fitness plan and your progress in one easy place.
4. Planning
With this type of all-in-one-place organization, you’ll be able to better plot and plan your workouts since you’ll know what’s coming weeks in advance. This allows a client to look ahead and ask any questions about workouts they may have in their programming.
5. Accountability
Having someone to answer to, whether online or in-person, will always make you more likely to show up.
