Benefits of Personal Training
MercyCare is excited to offer personal training services to help individuals meet their goals in a safe fitness space. Personal training has several benefits that can have a positive effect on your life well beyond the time spent with your trainer.
If you are new to exercise or are having trouble reaching your goals, a personal trainer can help make you feel comfortable with new exercises or push you a little harder to help you get past your plateau. A trainer can help you build confidence in the gym and give you a place to start if you are new to fitness by setting reasonable goals and giving you the tools you need to reach them. Your trainer can even help you develop a routine that you can do from home or wherever you prefer to exercise.
Another great time to start working out with a personal trainer is if you already work out but are getting bored with your routine. Perhaps you are a novice when it comes to running or doing cardio, but you are not as familiar with lifting, whether it be free weights or machines. A trainer can help you develop something new that will keep you engaged in your fitness journey.
Working with a personal trainer can help improve your accountability and motivation throughout your fitness journey. A standing appointment with your trainer is a constant reminder on a weekly or monthly basis that you have invested both time and money in yourself, helping to keep you motivated on days where you are exercising alone. Perhaps your week threw some curveballs at you and you couldn’t get all your workouts in, your time with your personal trainer is a weekly fresh start to getting back to your goals.
Now is a great time to get started with a certified MercyCare personal trainer. Call (319) 369-4455 or email mercycarebhs@mercycare.org for more information on our affordable pricing.
