Would you hire a personal trainer to come to your house?
Hi chickies,
I recently read about a personal trainer that would come to your house to train you.
It got me to thinking 'would I want a man in my house training me ?'
I think I would be too uneasy--and my hubby probably would too
Nope, I don't think hubby would go for it at all.
I am unsure as to how much it costs. But I would if I had the money. It would be lovely. And it doesn't have to be a man if that makes you uneasy. But my house has no facilities so I would rather meet my personal trainer at a gym or something.
The website that I was looking at says it's $50 for an hour and he brings the equipment to you: exercise ball, medicine ball, step, resistance bands, bosu ball, dumbbells.
I have been a personal trainer, I guess technically I still am, just not in shape anymore. I trained people at their homes and brought all the equipment if they didn't have any, or much. I think $50 is very very reasonable!
I think it's ritzy...
but I think if i had that kind of deal he's offering I would go for it...i'm a male though...don't know if that's supposed to make me less uneasy lol. I'm not the hugest fan of strangers in my home...
I don't think it would make me uneasy; but, out of respect I would honor my husbands thought/concerns and wishes. After all, I might feel a bit uneasy of the roles were reversed. That said, I think a trainer in a gym lends more to the feeling of dedication and personal responsibility. Each time you go; youre making that decision to take a proactive role. Plus it's a bit cheaper and u can spend the savings on new clothes. :-)
I bet you could find a female trainer that makes housecalls. Back in the day I had a trainer come to my condos gym to train me... we ended up dating a year, yeah use your imagination to how that started.
edited to add that I was single at the time, didn't want people to think I was cheating on a husband or anything!

I'm single, so I might consider it if I had workout space at home. But really, I'm a pretty private person and so I'd probably be more comfortable meeting a trainer at the gym, just because I my house is my private space and I don't really want a stranger traipsing through.
