You might not know it, but regardless of the sport you practice or wish to learn, you can hire a private instructor to learn at your own pace and achieve the goals you desire.
For example, if you dream of obtaining your sailing license but have never sailed before, you can get in touch with a private sailing instructor and together agree on a training program to achieve this goal.
Or, if you want to get back in shape after a period of inactivity but need the support of a personal trainer, you can get in touch with an instructor and together establish a daily or weekly program to train at your own pace.
As a final example, if you want to prepare for a marathon but are unsure of how to set up your training, contact a private coach and work with them to establish all the steps to reach this important goal.
Remember, if you don't have sufficient availability for in-person classes, you have the option to take private lessons online.
How do I choose the perfect sports and fitness instructor
Finding the motivation or drive to consistently train is not easy, even though we all know the enormous benefits of physical activity for physical and psychological health. Furthermore, the risk of injury is often underestimated when training alone, especially in sports like yoga, which involve unnatural poses, or in activities requiring significant physical effort, such as running or crossfit. In such cases, turning to a private trainer can not only help structure workouts better but also protect our joints and articulations.
Let's look at the benefits of classes with personal trainers or private instructors:
- Establish a personalized training routine. When we go to the gym on our own or head out for a run, we don't always follow a consistent and precise pattern; instead, we often leave the training to the spur of the moment. However, this kind of approach doesn't allow us to train all muscle groups, and it can lead to early abandonment of workouts or not fully reaping all the benefits.
- Set goals. To see the results of training, both in terms of performance and physical outcomes, it's essential to proceed with goals and small steps. If you want to run a marathon, you can't immediately aim to run 1 km from day one. Similarly, if you’re engaging in sports to lose weight, you can't risk jeopardizing your health: it's always necessary to have goals in mind and know what methods to adopt to successfully achieve them without harming yourself.
- Prevent injuries. Engaging in sports is a delicate moment, even in more recreational disciplines like yoga or pilates. The risk of injury is always present, which is why, especially in the beginning, it's important to perform exercises under the supervision of a vigilant eye that can correct you as many times as necessary.
- Keep your motivation high. The percentage of people who start a sport and abandon it after a few weeks or months is quite high. Often, this is also due to all the aforementioned mistakes, which lead you to become discouraged instead of persevering.
- Additionally, a private trainer will provide you with all the mental and emotional support you need to see and appreciate your improvements, thus helping you develop self-confidence and a passion for the sport you've chosen.
How to choose the perfect personal trainer for you
Our advice for finding the perfect personal trainer for you is to get in touch with as many trainers as possible to compare their training style and experience, so you can find the one that suits you best.
Take advantage of a free initial class or an introductory session with your trainer, so you can meet the instructor and see if there's good chemistry between you. Don't be afraid to share your weaknesses and goals, also explain your daily habits and whether you usually exercise or tend to be a sedentary person: all this information is valuable for your private instructor to design a customized exercise routine for you.
