Carol’s Fitness Journey – January 25, 2012

Written by Carol Cain on 27 January 2012

I’m back to vlogging. Thanks for your emails and notes requesting that they return. Who knew seeing me all sweaty post workouts would be such a hit?

No, but honestly, I have missed “talking” with you all about this journey I am on. I’ve learned and am learning so much, about my body, about what works for me what doesn’t, about the state of my overall health and about what I am capable of physically. It’s been such a wonderful experience. If these videos can inspire just one of you to seek ways to improve your overall health I am happy to keep doing them.

In this week’s video, I share with you my opinion on having a personal trainer. Some have asked about it, and I realize it can be an investment.

I once had a trainer, many years ago, that I couldn’t afford to see regularly. So, I met with him once a month and he would put together a workout schedule (reps, sets, what machines, what classes, how often, etc.) for me and I would follow it. Every month would we get together and assess where I was and he would modify as needed. It worked wonders.

So if you are considering a trainer, this video is one you want to check out. I share how it has worked for me and tips on how to make sure your experiences with your trainer, instructor, or anyone you work with in this process is as positive as possible.
