Thread: How to find a good trainer?

I guess GoPro is a personal trainer. I just don´t know where he lives.

That's a good question. Are there any "fitness studios" in the area? Those are small gyms that you only train at if you're paying a trainer there to train you. That is what gopro used to run, he no longer does, he now works for VPX. I would think something like that would be your best bet at getting a qualified trainer.

As far as the goons at places like 24-Hour Fitness, the majority are going to be worthless. I am sure there are a few good ones, but it would be difficult to find one unless you were very knowledgable yourself (in which you would not need a trainer).

If I could interview each trainer it would take me less than 5 minutes each to find out if they're worthy or not.

i cant really find "fitness studios" in dallas...but maybe i dont kno where or waht to search. I was thinkin about maybe lookin and seein if a retired or ex-dallas cowboy trainer could train me. Or some old sports weight trainer.

it will be pricey to get a good one that understands where you are comming from as a body builder. unless you get lucky, most of the ones I find teach that you have to "tone" an area with high reps, eat using the food pyramid blah blah blah.

You can go to the acefitness.org website to find a cpt in your area, they will give you a list of trainers with their contact info. Good Luck

I would go around and talk to the trainers at your gym. That is what I did.
