Your Personal Training questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much does a personal trainer cost near me?

A personal trainer costs $40 to $70 per hour on average or $250 to $400 per month for two sessions per week. Prices depend on the session length, location, trainer's experience, and if you buy a monthly package or book individual sessions.

Personal training rates at popular gyms are $50 to $110 per session, with most sessions lasting one hour. Many gyms offer a free initial fitness assessment with a certified personal trainer.

Is hiring a personal trainer worth it?

Hiring a personal trainer can be worth it if you need accountability, are having difficulty achieving your fitness goals on your own, or are returning to a fitness routine after an injury. A personal trainer can help you set realistic expectations, design a custom fitness plan, measure your progress, and boost your motivation.

A personal trainer can suggest activities that work best for your body and your schedule to maximize your results with the time and equipment available to you. Trainers also provide critical guidance for proper exercise form and movement, reducing your risk of injury.

Can you pay for a personal trainer with insurance or an HSA?

Health insurance typically does not cover the cost of a personal trainer, and you can only pay for a personal trainer with your Health Savings Account (HSA) if your physician or nurse practitioner prescribes an exercise regimen.

Your doctor must write a letter of medical necessity (LMN) confirming the personal training sessions are intended to treat or prevent a medical condition, and you must provide a copy to the IRS when filing your taxes.

How often should you see a personal trainer?

You should meet with your personal trainer 1 to 3 times per week, depending on your current fitness level and experience, short-term and long-term goals, and how often you're able to train solo during the week. Most trainers recommend beginning with 2 to 3 sessions per week for at least six weeks to establish a routine.

  • If you're on a budget and can only meet with your personal trainer once per week, you'll need to train on your own at least one to three times per week to make progress toward your fitness goals.
  • Consider seeing your personal trainer up to 4 times per week to work on short-term goals, like dropping a dress size before a wedding or training for a sports competition.

What does a personal trainer do?

A personal trainer starts by evaluating your current fitness level, strengths and weaknesses, and skills, then develops a customized exercise plan to help you meet your goals. The trainer works one-on-one with you to monitor your progress and provide guidance and encouragement.

A trainer will ensure you're working each muscle group correctly and at the right frequency, and that you're using proper form for each exercise to avoid injury.

How do I find the best personal trainer near me?

For the best results, aim to build a long-term relationship with your personal trainer to help you get in shape, stay in shape, and achieve your fitness goals. Follow these tips to find the best personal trainer for you:

  • Look for an NCSA Certified Personal Trainer (NSCA-CPT) or Certified Performance and Sports Scientist (CPSS).
  • If you have specific goals, such as bodybuilding or running a marathon, select a trainer with experience in that area.
  • Read their reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Meet with the trainer to discuss your goals, workout preferences, and any health conditions.
  • Ask them how the exercises will change and progress over time. Be wary of trainers who offer only vague answers, as this may indicate a lack of experience.
  • Confirm the personal trainer has liability insurance and training in CPR and first aid.

What questions should I ask personal trainers before hiring?

Ask these questions to ensure you choose a personal trainer with the right experience and skills:

  • How long have you been a personal trainer?
  • Which certifications do you have?
  • What is your fitness specialty?
  • What is your teaching style?
  • How do you assess a new client?
  • What experience do you have working with clients at my fitness level?
  • Do you have any client photos or video testimonials?
  • What does your program include?
  • What results should I expect to see?
  • How long will it take to reach my fitness goals?
  • How do you track fitness goals and progress?
  • How will the exercises change over time?
  • Do you have liability insurance?
  • Are you trained in CPR and first aid?

Amazing trainer got me mentally and physically stronger . Tailored every workout to me and my needs for weight loss and strength training and mixed in some boxing to switch it up . So happy to find Anthony .

Nicole is absolutely incredible! Not only is she an exceptional yoga instructor, but she also went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and confident in our sessions. Her attention to alignment and flow was impeccable, and the beautiful studio location was the perfect backdrop. What truly sets her apart, though, is her kindness, patience, and willingness to teach self-defense moves and tailor the experience to my needs. She's more than just an instructor - she's a true gem. I'm so grateful for her expertise and warmth, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a nurturing and empowering yoga experience!

After years of weight cycling and failed attempts to stick to an exercise program for longer than a few weeks, I finally realized I needed help. I trained with Jamil for 6 months and made more progress with him than I ever could on my own. He encouraged me to push myself to reach my goals. He provided advice on healthier eating habits. He did not judge me when I told him about rage quitting during my workouts. He encouraged me to take my time and try again when I was ready. Training with Jamil also helped me build the confidence to get me out of my comfort zone (hiding away in my apartment with limited equipment) and into the gym, around other humans. I truly believe he helped me make the lifestyle change I needed. While I still have a long way to go to meet some of my goals, I now have confidence in myself to get where I want to go. He helped me shine through the excuses and finally realize my potential. I encourage anyone who has struggled to meet their goals on their own to train with Jamil.

Shoko's classes are relaxing, knowlegable and she was very patient with everyone in the class. She taught me me the correct way to stretch my lower back and hamstrings.

This gym has the ‘personal’ touch. Never mind the fantastic workouts-my body has never been more toned or sculpted-the encouragement and sense of belonging is a welcome change to the gym scene. Never once have I been made to feel bad if I didn’t know how to do something or was doing it wrong. The encouragement to finish those last reps and push yourself beyond what you thought possible is uplifting. The personal connections to the trainers and other members is priceless.

Laz is an AMAZING instructor ! He has 20+ years experience in the fighting industry & it shows. He’s knowledgeable, super effective, knows when to push you & when not to. His lessons are intense but if you’re serious then it’s absolutely worth it. One of the most challenging but exhilarating things I’ve ever tried.
