Technicians and Tools
It is important to understand and accept this technician and tool relationship between a client and their personal trainer. Think twice before blaming your trainer if you fail to reach your goal. One’s trainer will help to set realistic fitness goals and provide a sound strategy to reach them. A trainer’s is a fitness tester, client motivator, educator, accountability partner, and periodic result tracker
Most people cannot financially afford however to work with their trainer on a daily basis. And of course the trainer cannot follow you around all day to see what you eat. The power sessions with a trainer can greatly improve your results. But clients still have to work out on their own and be responsible for what they put in their mouth. The client is the technician. The trainer is a valuable tool.
