Are you just getting into your fitness routine, or have you hit a rut in your current workout regimen? You should consider trying a group-training workout to spice things up! Personal training can get expensive with prices for individual workouts hovering around the $100/hour price range, but did you know that many gyms give you the chance to split that cost with several other people in a small group training workout? With groups ranging from 3-10 people, a personal trainer is still able to give each member the attention they need, while spicing up your routine. Here’s several reasons to try out small group training today.
Exercise form correction – Even if you’ve been working out for a while, sometimes it’s hard to tell if you are doing exercises properly. In a group workout, you’ll have a certified trainer to take a look at your form, and offer advice as to how to keep yourself from injury, as well as help you get the most out of each exercise.
New exercises – Even the most experienced athletes take advantage of trying out others’ workouts. The gains made from doing the same routine day in and day out decrease over the course of time, so by getting into a group workout with a new trainer you’ll get the chance to learn a few new exercises, or a new twist on ones you already know.
Save some time! – If you are like many other gym goers, you tend to take a little extra time between sets and exercises if someone isn’t holding you to a clock. By joining a group you’ll get significantly more work in in a shorter period of time. If you are someone with a busy schedule but a need to get your sweat on, small group training is the thing for you.
Camaraderie – Great personal trainers grow a group of great people showing up for their workouts on a regular basis. By joining up with this group you now have a team to work out with that will help motivate you to higher levels. Plus, doesn’t it feel great to high five other people at the end of a great workout?
Accountability – By putting a portion of your fitness routine in the hands of someone else, they are taking some of the responsibility of keeping you on task with your fitness. Small group training coaches are known for calling or emailing their clients when they don’t show up for an extended period of time, an sometimes it’s that little nudge that you need to get back in the gym during a rut.
