Tampa Personal Training at Driven Fit

Whether you’re struggling to reach a certain weight or you’ve hit a fitness plateau, hiring a personal trainer can provide the boost you need to push through and succeed. But, since hiring a trainer is an investment in both time and money, it is entirely normal to have apprehension. Here we list six really good reasons why hiring a trainer is well worth it.

  1. Accountability

Between inclement weather to not having enough time or energy and everything in between, there’s always an excuse not to work out.  Here’s the thing. We’ve heard every excuse in the book, and we will hold you accountable for the commitment you made to your fitness plan. Crazy life/work schedule? We get it and will create a workout program that works around any obstacles in your path.

  1. Motivation

Along with accountability comes motivation. As your personal trainer, we will be at every workout encouraging you to work hard, do that extra rep, and get you to the next level. We will check in with you throughout the week when you’re not at the gym and give you the self-confidence you need to succeed. And when you hit those PRs, we’ll also be at your side to celebrate!

  1. “Smarter” Workouts

Let’s go back to the investment in money and time. A certified personal trainer has the training and expertise required to create a workout plan that caters to your specific goals. You will have the guidance of efficient, effective workouts and avoid unnecessary efforts that don’t produce results.

  1. Personalized Attention

There’s a reason why we’re called “personal” trainers. At Driven Fit + Sponaugle, your personal trainer will develop an effective, sustainable workout plan that meets your specific needs. Throughout the process, we will adjust these workouts accordingly based on your schedule and fitness progression. We will keep things fresh and challenging without pushing you to the point of burnout or injury.

  1. Consistent Growth

At our South Tampa fitness and wellness center, we focus on achieving short-term goals as part of a long-term plan for consistent growth. We will help you see how each goal flows into the next and help you avoid the uncertainty and lack of motivation that comes along with hitting a plateau.

  1. Partnership

The road to health and well-being is a journey, and when you hire a personal trainer, you’re never alone. At Driven Fit + Sponaugle, we believe in creating a partnership with our clients – one that is built on trust, guidance, motivation, and accountability. Not only do we push you to move forward, but we also remind you of how far you have come. That alone is worth it!
