I mean social media didn\u2019t exist back then. Or Warby Parker for that matter!<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say in the 20+ years I\u2019ve been in \u201cthe biz,\u201d I\u2019ve seen my fair share of good trainers which make me proud to be in the industry, and bad trainers who make me sometimes want to light my face on fire.<\/p>\n<p>I could sit here and type endlessly about the traits I feel any \u201cgood\u201d trainer should encompass: a basic understanding of anatomy, movement, and program design would be a swell start. Do they look the part? As callous and nebulous as it may come across \u2013 <em>what does looking the part even mean? <\/em>\u2013 my friend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bryankrahn\/\">Bryan Krahn<\/a> hits the nail on the head:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIn the fitness industry, appearances matter. Now, that doesn\u2019t mean six-pack abs or muscles the size of boulders need to be prerequisites for the job. But your trainer should be healthy with a physique that suggests some level of mastery in his chosen field. If they talk the talk, they should walk the walk.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Do they dress professionally or as if they just stepped out of an MMA class? Are they punctual? Are they prepared and organized? Do they take the time to ask questions and perform some semblance of an initial assessment? Unfortunately I\u2019ve witnessed a few trainers in my time do nothing more than demonstrate how to insert the pins on various Cybex machines as part of their \u201cthorough assessment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why not just make paper airplanes for an hour?<\/p>\n<p>Are they friendly, personable, able to exhibit some empathy, and maybe most important of all, just generally a non-douchy person to be around? Because, lets be honest, no one wants to train with an asshole, much less pay for it.<\/p>\n<p>All, I believe, in a slightly tongue-in-cheek way, are relevant questions and observations to note when deciding who to hire as your personal trainer. I find it weird how some people are more diligent with who changes the oil in their car more so than who\u2019s in charge of telling them what to do with their own body.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Some Other Stuff to Consider<\/p>\n<p>Finding the right personal trainer that fits your goals and needs can be just as much of a nuisance as car shopping. Granted few things are as annoying as car shopping \u2013 save for an uncontrollable eye twitch or yet <em>another<\/em> Taylor Swift song about breaking up with a dude (all of our fingers are crossed Travis) \u2013 and you (generally) don\u2019t have to deal with the shady salesmen antics when seeking out a <strong><em>quality<\/em><\/strong> trainer.<\/p>\n<p>However, this doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t be on guard and go out of your way to be a more proactive consumer when hiring a personal trainer. Consider many people shell out upwards of $60-$90 <em>per session<\/em> (sometimes more depending on one\u2019s location), it only makes sense to try to get the most for your personal training buck.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Two Questions to Ask a Trainer<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-460338\" style=\"width:546px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/jonathan-borba-R0y_bEUjiOM-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Omitting the obvious questions such as \u201care you certified?(1)\u201d or \u201cdo you have any references\/testimonials to share?(2)\u201d or \u201cwhat\u2019s your favorite hip hop album of all time?(3)\u201d here are a handful of less common (albeit no less important) questions to ask a someone you\u2019re considering in hiring.<\/p>\n<p>(1) = Being certified is a \u201cmust have\u201d when vetting a trainer. Gold standard certifications in the industry are NSCA, ACE, ISSA, NASM, and ACSM. Also, I believe any trainer who has gone through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/showupfitnesscpt\/\">Show Up Fitness<\/a> course(s) is more than qualified as well.<\/p>\n<p>(2) = Just having a few letters next to their name doesn\u2019t mean much. Do they place a premium on continuing education? When\u2019s the last time they attended a national conference? What\u2019s the last book they read? Do they have a list of current clients you can contact about their own experience with this trainer? All are pertinent questions to ask, and questions any trainer should be able to answer without hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>(3) = anything by Tribe Called Quest, Wu-Tang Clan, Gang Starr, or not anything past 1996 are acceptable answers here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">\u201cDo You Workout Yourself?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I understand it comes across as a bit uncouth or oxymoron(ish) to ask a trainer\/coach if (s)he workouts. It\u2019s analogous to asking Jason Bourne whether or not he knows where all the exit routes are when he enters a room, but it\u2019s unsettling how often this happens.<\/p>\n<p>Before co-founding my own facility in 2007 I worked in numerous commercial gyms beforehand, and it amazed me how many colleagues never worked out.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not referring to looking the part (I.e., fit), which has already been covered above. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m referring to personal trainers who <em>literally<\/em> do not exercise themselves!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a blunt question to ask, but if you\u2019re going to spend good money hiring a trainer, do you really want someone to be in charge of your body who doesn\u2019t practice what they preach?<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">\u201cWhat\u2019s Your Training Philosophy?<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, it\u2019s also smart to ask what a trainer\u2019s general training philosophy is.<\/p>\n<p>Are they someone who places an emphasis on strength training or are they more endurance based?<\/p>\n<p>Do they include a thorough assessment \u2013 movement screens, going over injury and training history, etc \u2013 as part of their approach? If not, I\u2019d say \u201cbye, Felicia\u201d and shop elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, if they\u2019re a competitive powerlifter, bodybuilder, figure competitor, or CrossFitter (to give a few examples), do they have the ability to separate their own training preferences to yours?<\/p>\n<p>What good does it do you if you\u2019re interested in improving your deadlift and squat numbers and your trainer has you performing a \u201cbicep day\u201d because it was <em>his<\/em> bicep day?<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-460339\" style=\"width:337px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/tonygentilcore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/colynary-media-yWd6Mb1y1P0-unsplash-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Or maybe you\u2019re goal is to add some strength training to help you prepare for a half marathon.

Not their own<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Bonus: One Question a Trainer Should <em>Never<\/em> Ask You.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t begin to tell you how many times I heard this question being asked when I worked in various commercial gyms.<\/p>\n<p>A client would walk in, greet their trainer, and the trainer would then ask\u2026.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cSo, what do you want to do today?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Um, isn\u2019t that what you\u2019re paying THEM to figure out? That\u2019s like me walking into my accountant\u2019s office and him looking at me and saying, \u201cso, you read up on all those new tax codes?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This comes down to my comment above regarding organization and preparedness. Whomever you hire should have a game plan. <\/p>\n<p><strong><em>They should be writing programs not workouts!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t to say they shouldn\u2019t ask for your feedback or insight on any given day \u2013 maybe you were up late the night prior with a sick kid or you had a long day at work and were thiiis close to ending your boss\u2019s life \u2013 which may require tweaking that particular day\u2019s session.<\/p>\n<p>However, in the grand scheme of things, they should be prepared a head of time.
