To achieve good results in the gym, it is important not only to regularly attend workouts and find the optimal workout for yourself. You also need to find a good coach who can help you achieve your goal - a beautiful figure and excellent health.
Instructions
Step 1
Do not rush to sign up for the first club you come across. Having decided to seriously engage in fitness, collect information about all the gyms that interest you, and, if possible, about the trainers working in them. City thematic forums can help you - in the headings "Sport", "Beauty and Health" there are usually many who want to share their successes and the coordinates of people who help to achieve such impressive results.
Step 2
After choosing a fitness club, go there. It is not necessary to purchase a subscription - many halls are ready to provide beginners with a trial visit. Take advantage of it.
Step 3
Choose the direction you are interested in - one or several. Chat with the girls working in the reception area. Specify which trainers are teaching classes, what are their diplomas, certificates and other achievements. Find out who is considered the local "star". Compare this information with what you have already collected.
Step 4
Talk to your chosen trainer. You should be comfortable communicating with him. Ideally, if your views on the frequency of training, the system of loads and other important points coincide. Decide if you like communicating with this person, because he should become an authority for you, a guru. This is the strongest motivation for training, and therefore, the key to future success.
Step 5
Make sure the coach understands why you came to the gym. If you want to lose weight quickly, and the teacher is trying to convince you that relief muscles are more important to you, most likely you will not be able to work together.
Step 6
If everything suits you, attend a trial lesson - it can be paid or free, depending on the policy of the club. In practice, you will be able to evaluate how the teacher conducts the training, how clearly explains and shows the exercises. A good specialist should carefully monitor the load, and during group sessions, devote time and attention to each participant.
Step 7
Assess the general atmosphere of the class. Too loud, annoying music, the smell of paint in a newly renovated hall, slippery floors, unpleasant people in the group - these little things are unlikely to motivate you to work hard. The atmosphere in the gym should be neutral so that you can concentrate on your workouts without interference.
Step 8
When you are finished, talk to your coach about your prospects. Ask him to determine which program is right for you. A good specialist will not send you to the front desk, but will offer his own solution to the issue - for example, supplement strength training with yoga classes, and recommend dance exercises instead of step aerobics. If this suits you, feel free to purchase a subscription - most likely, you have found your coach.
