Personal Training – Can it truly be for anyone? — From the Personal Training Blog of David Hansey
So, you ask yourself, is it possible to make personal training an option for anyone? Well, actually yes. Not that everyone needs or wants personal training all the time but it can add to everyone’s life.
I had a great new client last week who reminded me of this. One of my earliest clients was a wonderful lady who was having medical issues that were preventing her from walking. And I mean AT ALL. She came to her sessions in a scooter and really worked hard. We did a lot of corrective training and she still trains with me and walks — WALKS. It is such a dramatic change in a personal training client that it really touches your heart.
Well I was reminded of how important it is to have quality of life with my new client last week. She is a very nice lady also with medical issues that make day to day living uncomfortable and at times difficult. And when I have a client whose daily life can be so improved by personal training and I watch how hard they work — and how hard they want it — it is always dramatic.
Now I enjoy all my clients on many different levels and I love watching them succeed. But it is these clients who struggle with just their daily life that truly make my job rewarding and make me so happy to be a personal trainer so that I can help them to find a way to make that daily struggle easier.
