For losing weight and maintaining a good shape, many women choose fitness classes. To make the workouts fun and give the desired result, you need to choose the right club and a good fitness instructor.

How to find a professional?

Today in many clubs, the post of coach is occupied by ordinary sports fans who have no education and as a result will not be able to help you in anything. What you need to do to find a real instructor:

  1. Every professional should have documents that indicate his education, for example, a diploma of an educational institution that is relevant to the sport. People with this education should know the basics of physiology, which means that the coach can correctly choose the load for each person. Another instructor should have a certificate that he has completed special courses. But sometimes in this case you can expect disappointment, as the diploma and the certificate can be simply bought.
  2. Go to the test lesson, where you can observe the work of the coach, evaluate his knowledge and capabilities. Pay attention to how he starts training, if the coach went into the hall, greeted him and immediately started to practice, it is not right. A professional in his field must pay attention to beginners, tell him exactly how the training goes, how to perform this or that exercise. If this is not done, then you can get a serious enough injury already in the first lesson.
  3. If you come to a qualified coach, he will definitely take the time to find out all the detailed information: the purpose of the parish, how many kilograms you want to lose, how much time you can spend on training, whether you have health problems, etc. In addition, the coach in order to choose a good set of exercises, you need to know what your work is: active or passive, how much time you spend on sleep and what you eat. If this did not happen and the instructor simply began to tell you about his achievements and give millions of examples, how happy women lost weight thanks to his studies literally in front of him, it is better to thank him for the information, turn around and leave and not come back.
  4. A good coach must speak the truth and be realistic. If he promised that for a month you will lose 20 kg and more, then run away from it, since this is impossible without harming your health. A professional trainer will tell you how many kilograms a week you can lose with your weight, and how long it will take.
  5. A good instructor should observe all the trainees and pay special attention to the newcomers. In order for lessons to be useful, exercises must be performed correctly, this is the work of the instructor. If you are in the gym, you can first ask for a personal trainer so that he can tell
  6. to engage in that or another simulator .
  7. Ask all questions interesting you, the real professional always has an intelligible answer in which all the necessary information will be stated.
  8. Well, probably the most important recommendation - follow your feelings, if at the first meeting you did not like the person, and the impression after communication was not very good, then it is better to abandon his services initially, as it is still a long time with such an instructor it will not work.

If you are convinced of the professionalism of the coach, have received answers to all the questions, and he is ready to help in the realization of your dream, then you can safely buy a monthly or even a semi-annual subscription and go to the center for training.
