In today's fast-paced world, juggling work, family and social commitments can often leave little time for personal well-being and the ability to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

One of the most effective ways to achieve your health and fitness goals as well as staying on track is by choosing to use the guidance of a Personal Trainer, a Vision Personal Trainer!

Vision Personal Trainers offer more than just exercise, they provide personalised support, motivation and education that enables you to grow your knowledge so that you can implement what you learn outside of your Personal Training sessions!

  • Personalised Approach to Health and Fitness. No two individuals are the same and this is the same in health and fitness. A person’s goals and needs can be totally different to another person. A Personal Trainer takes the time to understand your specific needs and circumstances: your fitness level, medical history, body type, lifestyle and what you enjoy with exercise. These in turn allow for the designing of a tailor-made exercise and nutrition plan to meet your short and long term goals.
  • Expert Guidance. Personal trainers are experts in the health and fitness industry. Their expertise enables them to coach resistance training, cardio exercise and nutrition. They also ensure that you are performing exercises with the correct form, reducing the risk of injuries and optimising your exercise results.
  • Motivation and Accountability. Staying motivated can be one of the biggest challenges in maintaining consistent exercise habits. Personal Trainers are always at the top of your support network, providing encouragement and motivation you need to exercise when you are really not feeling like it and making sure you stay on track with your goals. Accountability is also very important and having a scheduled exercise session with your trainer will make you more likely to show up and give it your best!
  • Goal Setting and Tracking Progress. Setting SMART goals is crucial for health and fitness success. A SMART Goal is; specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time (the goal has a timeframe). A Personal Trainer helps you establish short-term and long-term goals that match the above criteria, allowing you to have ‘milestone’ achievements along the way to your ultimate goals!
  • Variety and Creativity. Repetitive workouts can lead to boredom and plateaus in your progress. Personal Trainers keep your routine fresh and exciting by introducing a variety of exercises, training methods, and equipment. Blocks are also implemented so that an exercise routine changes after 4 weeks so that your muscles don’t get used to doing the same thing over and over again. This will not only keep you engaged and motivated, but it also challenges your body in new ways, prevents plateaus and promotes continual improvement
  • Education. An important aspect within the role of a Personal Trainer is to educate you about the health and fitness, nutrition and overall well-being. This helps you to make informed choices that extend beyond your training sessions.
  • Stress Reduction and Mental Health. Exercise has huge benefits for mental health. These include stress reduction, increased self-esteem, increased confidence, helps your brain produce endorphins and serotonin that helps improve your mood. 

Personal trainers help you incorporate physical activity into your routine, which can have a positive impact on your mental well-being and overall quality of life.
