NEW STUDY SHOWS THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER

Over the course of our 7-year career in the fitness industry, we have trained more than 995 people totaling more than 9800 hours of training time. During that time, it has become obvious to us the benefits that come from using a personal trainer, especially when it is combined with a proper nutrition plan. Clients lose fat, look better, feel healthier and have increased energy. As you can see from our many client success stories, testimonies, and before and after pictures, our clients also see that benefit.

While we see these benefits on a daily basis when working with clients, a recent study conducted by supplementcritique.com to gauge consumer perceptions of personal fitness trainers reinforces that. The study found that an overwhelming number of people are satisfied with their experience when they worked with a personal trainer. The survey, conducted in the United States, targeted consumers that currently workout at least three times a week.

Key Takeaways: 83% of people that have used a personal trainer were satisfied with the results. Experience is the most important factor people consider when choosing a personal trainer, with 35% of respondents stating this was their most important consideration.

Satisfied Customers

Of those surveyed, 56% of respondents who exercised three times or more per week stated that they had used the services of a personal trainer in the past. Of those that had used the services of a personal trainer as part of their workout regime, 83% were satisfied with the results, underlining the value that personal trainers bring to those looking to achieve their fitness goals.

Of those respondents that had not used a personal trainer in the past, there was a clear understanding of the benefit of using a personal trainer as evidenced by the fact that 68% of respondents believed that working with a personal trainer would help them reach their fitness goals.

Experience Matters

Consumers were asked what the most important factors they would consider when hiring a personal trainer. 35% of respondents said that the experience of the personal trainer was the most important factor followed by 27% of people saying that personality and likeability were most important. 26% of respondents cited cost as being the most important factor they would consider when choosing a trainer to work with.

Education

The study asked respondents what they thought was the education level of the average personal trainer. 61% of those surveyed believed that the average personal trainer has less than a college degree. 15% believed that the average education level was high school, while 46% believed that the average personal trainer had some college. 38% believed that the average personal trainer had obtained a college degree.

We found this part of the study interesting as we have both Masters in Exercise Science and Bachelors degrees in Sports & business Management, along with numerous certifications. Plus we have built a caliber staff of experts all of which have diplomas, degrees, certifications, and all are continuing their education currently. What is striking about this study is the satisfaction level that people have when they work with a personal trainer. Working with a personal trainer that you can connect with is far more likely to lead to you having success while also increasing your enjoyment level. The study was conducted in April of 2015 in order to understand how personal trainers are perceived in the marketplace by consumers who make fitness a part of their daily lives.
