The perception of what constitutes a good personal trainer is subjective. Most people when they consider hiring a personal trainer don't exactly know what attributes they should look for.

Perhaps you find yourself in a similar position-is choosing a trainer about personality, age, or gender? Is it about work ethic or similar fitness ideals? What should potential clients need to know about the person they choose? Are there "deal-breaker" questions? Does it matter if a trainer doesn't actually possess any education in exercise fitness, physiology, or nutrition? If you are in the market for a personal fitness trainer, get answers for yourself and hire the trainer with the answers that most closely match the following suggestions.

First of all, fitness trainers are not workout buddies. Rather, a professional trainer listens to your personal needs and goals; assesses your physical fitness; designs a means of tracking your progress; motivates, pushes, or otherwise inspires you to keep moving forward; and then creates or builds a program specifically for you. The level of expertise, professional training, and education required by these tasks is nothing to sneeze at. Ask your trainer if they are a certified fitness trainer. Some highly regarded certification fitness associations include ISSA, the National Academy of Sports Medicine and the National Strength and Conditioning Association. If your potential trainer is a certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist or a Health Fitness Specialist and CPR certified, you're off to a great start.
