1. YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF WORKOUT WILL HELP YOU REACH YOUR GOALS

Different types of exercise will lead to different types of results. But sometimes it’s tricky to determine what style of workout is right for you.

Maybe you’re trying to lose the baby weight. Maybe you want shredded abs. Maybe you want to slim down without bulking up. Maybe you want to increase overall strength.

Those are all awesome goals, but they require different workouts, diets, and timelines to complete. If you team up with a personal trainer, they can give you knowledgeable advice, personalized recommendations, and a customized plan to get you on the right track towards your goal.

2. YOU SKIP AT LEAST ONE WORKOUT EVERY SINGLE WEEK

We’ve all skipped workouts before. Sometimes it’s because of illness or a family emergency…other times it’s because we stayed up too late watching Netflix.

It’s normal to miss a scheduled workout every once in a while, but if you’ve developed a habit of skipping workouts once (or twice…or three times…) every week, it might be time to bring some extra accountability into your life.

Sometimes, your life circumstances make it difficult to find the time or energy to make it into the gym regularly. You’re dealing with a busy season at work or you have a demanding family life, and you just don’t have a whole lot of willpower left over! And that’s okay.

But if you still want to stay committed to your fitness goals, despite the busyness in your life, a personal trainer can make that happen. They’ll provide the extra support and accountability that you need so that you’ll never have an excuse to skip a workout again.

3. YOU’VE HIT A FITNESS OR WEIGHT LOSS PLATEAU

You’ve been working out consistently, eating clean, seeing great results…and then it happens. You hit a plateau.

Even though you haven’t changed any of your healthy habits, you stop seeing results—and start feeling stuck, frustrated, and discouraged.

If you want to get back on track with your fitness and weight loss goals, a personal trainer can help you identify what caused the plateau and create a customized workout and diet plan that matches your goals. Problem solved!

4. YOU’RE RECOVERING FROM AN INJURY (OR DEALING WITH A HEALTH ISSUE)

You may be at a point in your fitness journey where you’re recovering from an injury, dealing with health complications, or restarting an exercise routine after pregnancy or some other doctor-enforced break.

In any of these situations, it can be difficult to find a safe exercise routine that also promotes weight loss, muscle gain, improved endurance, or any other goals you might have.

A personal trainer can help you find the perfect workout for your needs and abilities, and they also will be there to provide insight, support, and encouragement as you face this uphill climb towards your goals.

5. YOU GIVE UP ON CHALLENGING WORKOUTS (OR DON’T GIVE 100% EFFORT)

Okay, it’s time for honesty hour. How often do you quit your workout before completing that final set of reps? How often do you slow your pace when it starts to get hard? How often do you bail out on the last interval round?

It’s important to listen to your body—we don’t want you to risk injury or overexertion in any way!

Study: fitness boosts brainpower in adults

Physical fitness has been associated with better brain structure and brain functioning in adults.

The findings of a study, led by Dr Jonathan Repple of the University Hospital Muenster in Germany, suggests that increasing fitness levels through exercise could result in improved cognitive ability – such as memory and problem solving – as well as improved structural changes in the brain.

A group of researchers led by Repple used a publicly available database of 1,200 MRI brain scans from the Human Connectome Project and combined it with physical testing to assess the subjects’ physical fitness. Each one’s cognitive ability was also measured. The researchers excluded subjects with pre-existing conditions, such as neurodevelopmental disorders, diabetes or high blood pressure.

The results of the study showed that physical endurance was positively associated with the global cognition scores of the subjects taking part.

In its conclusion, the group of researchers said the results of the study suggest that physical exercise could be used as a form of preventative healthcare.

“The observed pattern of results appears to support the notion of a beneficial effect of physical fitness on cognitive function,” the study reads.

“This notion is supported by the few available experimental studies indicating that physical exercise leads to increases in memory performance and brain structural integrity.

“This concept might be of relevance for a wide range of domains in health and life sciences including prevention, clinical care and neurobiological research.

“Along with previous findings, our findings point to the potential of physical fitness as a modifiable factor that might be applied as an intervention in prevention and clinical care.”

The report was simultaneously published in the Scientific Reports journal and presented at the ECNP Congress in Copenhagen, Denmark.
