Do I need a personal trainer to get started?

When you first walk into a gym, the sheer amount of information can be overwhelming. You've probably heard about different training splits like "bro splits" versus "full-body every other day" or "upper-lower" programmes. You'll see people using both machines and free weights, and you might be wondering about all the different ways to train, from basic sets and reps to more advanced techniques like circuits and AMRAPs.

The truth is, you don't need a trainer to start, but you do need a plan to succeed. All the information you could ever want is available online and from AI tools. But, the real question is, do you need a personalised plan to truly succeed?

The truth is, all of this information can make it difficult to know where to begin. A generic plan from a website won't take into account your starting point, your busy lifestyle, your personal goals, or the simple fact that you might be feeling a bit gym-shy.

A bespoke training programme, on the other hand, is designed specifically for you. It simplifies the entire process by taking the guesswork out of it. Instead of spending hours trying to figure out which exercises to do, how many sets and reps, and which days to train, someone else has already done that work for you. All you have to do is turn up, and get to work.

Online personal training offers a great way to get this personalised experience without having to find a trainer at your local gym. It gives you the expertise you need, with the flexibility to train on your own schedule. The beauty of it is that whether you have a small window on a Monday morning or a longer session on a Friday evening, your programme is designed to work for you, not the other way around. With weekly check-ins, your coach can adapt your plan based on your progress and provide the nutrition coaching you need to get the best results.
