Chris H. says, "I recently worked with Steve to get me ready for a half marathon. I personally benefited from his experience and the training program that he provided. He was very thorough and strategic when it came to getting me ready. He would check on my progress a couple of times a week and would make adjustments to the program as needed. Steve is currently getting me ready for the Buffalo marathon in May 2023. I would recommend using Steve if you are looking for a running coach who is passionate about the sport of running." Read more

Debbie B. says, "Hello, My name is Debbie Barenfeld and I have been an active independent fitness instructor for 26 years. Back in the day when I first became an instructor what was offered in the gyms was very limited, floor aerobics & step aerobics. About 1 year into teaching I took a master class in Boxing/Cardio Kickboxing and I was hooked and knew from that point on that was what I wanted to teach. I met Master Smyer at a gym that he and I were teaching at. He was teaching Martial Arts and I was teaching group fitness which included Cardio Kickboxing. I always had a fascination for Martial Arts, as a child I took Judo classes & as a young adult in college I enrolled in a coed Karate class. I would watch & listen to Master Smyer teach & instruct his classes & I thought I need to try and fit this into my schedule. It was the most AMAZING decision I have ever made. First beside being a coworker with Master Smyer, he then became my teacher. His knowledge is limitless and I wanted to learn as much as I possibly could from him. Second training with Master Smyer elevated my Cardio Kickboxing classes to a whole other level as well as my stamina & fitness. Third I have a true understanding for Martial Arts. It definitely grounds you as well as it teaches you respect, focus, breathing techniques & discipline. It is meant to be learned in a safe and healthy environment. It helps in building self confidence, self esteem & self awareness. Whether you have a young child or you are an active adult Martial Arts does not discriminate against age. It is the perfect outlet for teens trying to find their way. Master Smyer is amongst the BEST OF THE BEST! " Read more

Your Personal Training questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

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?

Reviews for Bethlehem personal trainers

Recent success stories from people in the Bethlehem area.
Kyle A.
Charles is an amazing trainer, he knows the intricacies of the musculoskeletal system and how it coordinates with different exercises with different weights. He’s not a trainer that will leave you to your own devices and give you an exercise to do and that’s it. Charles takes the time and the focus to place it on your through every rep and movement, he guides you on the focusing of the particular muscle being worked to achieve the highest quality of work done.

Steve is great, supportive, and encouraging coach for whatever you running goal you may have. He created a running plan that fit my goals, schedule, and was easy to follow along with the Nudge app. He is easy to contact for any questions/concerns you may have towards your plan or any challenges you face. Steve helped me accomplish one of my running goals and we are about to begin working on my second. I would highly recommend Steve, he is an awesome coach and motivator.

Master Smyer, Here is my testimonial for your website...it's kinda long!! My motive to begin training was really about being in the right place at the right time. When I was in my early 20's a new gym named CanDo opened in my hometown. They offered a Tae Kwon Do program and my cousin asked me to join with him. I was very interested because when I was 10 years old I studied Karate for 1 year but stopped for some reason and now was my chance to get back into it. Little did I know that I would train and earn my first degree Black Belt there with the best teacher I've ever known! The benefits that I received were many. Master Smyer's instruction style created an atmosphere that enabled me to build up my endurance, get stronger both physically and mentally, to persevere, and most of all, to be patient. Master Smyer was a role model not just a teacher. His display of patience with students of any age was truly inspiring. My overall experience was that this was a time in my life that I will never forget. I trained at CanDo for 6 years, which turns out to be most of my 20's, but then I moved to another state so I had to end my time in this program. I was in the best shape of my life, I wasn't afraid to challenge myself, and I learned that anything was possible. I will always have a love for Master Smyer and how me helped me become the person I am today. He will always be a prominent figure in my life!

Love always, Donna

The coaches have always been extremely helpful with teaching tumbling. They make sure that they are not only teaching you new skills, but how to do them with the proper technique. I’ve been attending Prime Time Tumbling for many years, and it’s the best tumbling instruction I’ve ever recieved.
