Customized personal training with results

A healthy lifestyle is becoming increasingly important in our society. We watch our diet and check our pedometer daily. Instead of 'sponsoring' the local gym every month, we clean up our workplaces at 5 pm and leave for the gym. We work through our schedule about three times a week. But after a while we don't see the results anymore and we get bored.

The answer to this is Personal training. Personal trainers focus on different target groups and are increasingly accessible these days. They focus on health conditions, professional athletes, entrepreneurs and also on gender. There is now also Personal training especially for and by women. Women have different needs, such as toning or post-pregnancy. Let's Do It Personal Training has developed such a tailor-made personal training program for women. The great thing is that these women are also guided by a female personal trainer. Let's Do It PT originated as a sister company of Your Health PT, which has been helping both men and women to achieve and maintain a fit lifestyle since 2007.

Training from home or near you

You may have seen it on television or social media that celebrities are working out with a personal trainer. In the past it was indeed the case that only the rich used these services, but nowadays it is a lot more accessible and also a lot more interesting for everyone to use a personal trainer.

One of the reasons is that many personal trainers now also operate separately from gyms and offer their services outside of them. It is of course very easy for people to use a personal trainer at home, because you no longer have to go to the gym but can train at home or, if the weather is nice, go outside to the park or the forest around the corner. Another reason why personal training is increasingly preferred over a gym subscription is that the PT acts as a big stick behind the door. You are less likely to resist or cancel an appointment with a dedicated advocate of your health goals than a non-binding visit to the impersonal gym.

The personal trainer is waiting for you, so to speak. Is familiar with your personal situation. The bottom line is that you no longer have to argue with yourself 'should I, shouldn't I, otherwise I will go tomorrow', but that you just go. And it is precisely this regularity that is necessary to achieve results.

Nevertheless, personal trainers are flexible in the day, time and location of the appointment. So you can train whenever it suits you. The personal trainer comes to you, with all the necessary sports equipment.

Personal training cost-cutting:budget tips and hacks

Although personal training is now also affordable for a wider audience than just celebrities, it can be made even more affordable by using the following tips:

  • If you are seriously interested, both Let's Do It PT and Your Health PT offer a free trial lesson.
  • By purchasing a strip card, you pay less per training. The more training sessions you book in advance, the lower the price per training. The strip card is valid for an indefinite period of time. This way you can fix the price and you don't have to worry about price increases in the future.
  • Duo workouts allow you to train together with a sports buddy or partner, two for the price of one.
  • It is good for entrepreneurs to know that personal training may be tax deductible.
  • When you introduce a new member, you will receive 1 free training.

Holistic health:support under 1 roof

If desired, you can also receive lifestyle coaching. In addition to the Personal training, you will receive lifestyle and nutritional advice that is listed in a special Lifestyle workbook. You will find coaching questions here that have been prepared by a Motivational Interviewing trainer, so that you can gradually draw up a plan of approach that is feasible for you. So that you can gradually improve your lifestyle.

In addition, you will find shopping tips, tips on how to look at a menu when you go out for dinner, a daily schedule and information and advice about mindset, sleep, relaxation and balance. Everything is connected with each other. During the training you can discuss with your Personal Trainer how you are doing, what you encounter and how you could possibly do things differently. In this way, the trainer keeps a finger on the pulse, you really have a big stick behind the door. In addition, you save the costs of a dietitian practice or a lifestyle coach and you have all your vitality under one roof.
