MILLIONS SEEK WEIGHT LOSS ON NATIONAL PERSONAL TRAINER AWARENESS DAY
Stanhope,
NJ -- December 6, 2005 -- -- Every January 2nd millions of Americans,
armed with their latest resolution they made the day before to lose
weight and get in shape, start their annual attempt at making this the
year they make positive, permanent healthy lifestyle changes. By
February most of the ambition has faded and virtually all have returned
to their familiar position - plopped in front of the television eating
God knows what. National Personal Trainer Awareness Day was founded
with the hopes of preventing this from continuing to happen.
"Personal
trainers play a crucial role in helping people actually achieve their
health and fitness goals", said Arnel Ricafranca, a fitness expert
based out of Stanhope, NJ. He went on to add "Trainers are highly
educated and are not the tank top wearing 'muscle-heads' many people
associate with the word personal trainer."
Ricafranca believes that today's fitness professionals are able to help
people in a number of important ways:
-- Designing fitness programs that achieve far greater results in much
less time than most people think possible.
-- Decrease their risk of injury while exercising significantly.
-- Keeping them motivated and help them set realistic goals.
-- Acting as a role model and support person to help them stay focused
on living a healthy lifestyle.
Ricafranca offers up the following suggestions for selecting the right
trainer:
1
) Ask your inner circle of friends, business associates or
family if
they know of any local trainers. The best trainers are usually found by
word of mouth referral.
2 ) Define your goals and interview
several trainers who specialize in working with people just like you.
If you want general fitness conditioning you are not going to hire a
trainer who specializes in training power lifters.
3 ) Try
several trainers before you make your final choice. Most trainers will
offer a trial period to see if personalities are compatible.
4
) Take the time to check references and learn about
the trainer’s
background. A good trainer will provide a potential client with
references of a few past and current clients as well as the sources of
their certifications or degrees.
