Why Hire a Personal Trainer?

Are you getting the most out of your time at the gym…?

Why work with a personal trainer ?

When you hire a personal trainer you are not just purchasing their physical presence and guidance through your workouts but also their education, experience, knowledge and expertise with program development and design.

Our bodies have more than 200 bones, over 600 muscles and approximately 230 moveable and semi-moveable joints. Let's face it, our bodies are extremely complex!

Personal trainers have been educated in these complexities and therefore, are uniquely qualified to help you achieve your personal fitness goals as safely and quickly as possible. In addition, Personal Trainers are continuously re-educating themselves to make sure they keep up to date with the latest and greatest fitness programs, exercises, and techniques.

If you choose to hire a personal trainer, you might spend a little more up front, but you will definitely receive a far better return for your investment.

A personal trainer, will help you with the right combination of exercise movements and techniques to use while doing them. They will also help you with proper form, range of motion, and intensity necessary to achieve the results you want without hurting yourself. Proper nutritional components to fuel your body's needs are important on order to progress too.

A Personal Trainer will conduct an initial fitness assessment by gathering your lifestyle history and listening to what you want to accomplish. Your trainer will then create a personalized fitness program custom tailored around your specific needs and goals.

Once your program is created, your trainer will explain methods, principles and reasoning behind every aspect of your program's design and execution.

As you progress, your trainer will monitor your improvements and fine-tune your program as needed by making the necessary adjustments in order to help you advance to the next level.

Because your trainer has a vested interest in your success, they are just as motivated about your pending body transformation as you are. Together, you will work side by side as a team in a joint effort to ensure you achieve the personal and fitness goals of your dreams.

For those of you who already know your way around the gym, a Personal Trainer can be very beneficial as well.

If you find yourself at a point in your training where you have reached a plateau and can't seem to make further progress, or you are simply bored with your current routine, then a Personal Trainer is exactly what you need!

A personal trainer can take a close look at what you are doing in your current program and offer you a fresh perspective based on their professional knowledge of the most up to date health and fitness advancements.

After evaluating what you have been doing, your personal trainer can then recommend the appropriate adjustments to your current program that will jumpstart your workouts in order to help you to advance to the next level.

Whether your goal is to lose weight, increase lean body mass, or simply improve your health, hiring a personal trainer is the quickest and safest way to put you on track to a slimmer, stronger, healthier and more energetic you!

Don't allow time spent time gym to become wasted in the gym.

Let a personal trainer maximize your results!

A personal trainer can:

  • Provide an initial fitness assessment
  • Help you set safe and realistic goals
  • Help keep you consistent and accountable to your workout goals and progress
  • Create an enjoyable exercise environment
  • Motivate you to challenge yourself at every workout session for maximum results
  • Help you maintain your mental focus
  • Teach you proper stretching techniques to improve flexibility and range of motion
  • Show you how to warm up and cool down
  • Help you to prevent risk of injury

Regina Keil - Professional Level

Regina is certified as a Personal Trainer through the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and like Robin, has gone from a three-year Whole Body Fitness client to a Whole Body Fitness trainer. Regina is a member of the IDEA Health and Fitness Organization and is currently due to complete her Fitness Specialist Certificate at Irvine Valley College in October 2008.

Regina is committed to working with business professionals, Moms, Moms-to-be, and older adults ready to bring their health and fitness to new levels. Being a mother herself, Regina believes through first-hand experience that the expertise and guidance provided by a personal trainer prepared her prior to pregnancy and led her to a smooth delivery and fast post-partum recovery. She believes this is achieved through hard work and the dedication of a personal fitness trainer who can customize to the specific needs during each trimester of your pregnancy and post-partum period.

A personal note from Regina:
“The decision to have and raise a family doesn’t have to mean an end to a healthy and fit body. I know what it’s like to provide for a family, be a wife, maintain a home and wrangle a toddler day-in and day-out, and then find the time, energy, and motivation to exercise and take care of myself. I encourage anyone looking to improve their health and fitness to arm themselves with knowledge, seek out experts to help you with custom-tailored programs and help you achieve your goals. I am excited to have been able to ‘make the cut’ and join the Whole Body Fitness team and I look forward to enhancing peoples’ lives.”

After many years as an engineer in the aerospace industry Jennifer felt ready for a change from the office life. She totally understands the difficulty of staying in shape while at a desk job and is excited to start a career helping people improve their health.
