Has anyone here used a trainer they would recommend? I'm a little hesitant to go in to the health club and just pick someone at random.. Would like to use someone that someone else would advise.
You may also want to consider some of the local Crossfit affiliates, like redstickcrossfit, geaux, or tpg crossfit. I'd recommend red stick it's a class environment but for me bridges te gap between a personal trainer and going to the gym alone. The program is highly adaptable, I've seen women 8 months pregnant train through the same conceptual workout as strong athletes with minor modifications to their programming.
I'm looking for someone to train with me to drive down cost & get extra sessions. It's a good deal if you "buddy train". I know the trainer......he's legit. I think it'll be $150 per person for 5 full body sessions; that may be a months worth of training. Are you a member of Anytime fitness?
