A few years back I wrote that one of the most important things a personal trainer does for you is answer the question, "What now?"
You plateau. You stop making progress - or make negative impacts on your fitness. You change your goals and don't know where to go. Or you get hurt.
That is when having a personal trainer and a coach helps.
You can see this with Ryan Nie and his client in the post below:
One of my Olympic Weightlifters hurt his ankle [. . . ]
Hurt ankle, but a sport that is exclusively performed on the feet?
You get lift variations that take the ankle out of it without sacrificing practice of the essential elements of his sport.
That's a perfect example of what we do - he with a weightlifter, myself and others with out clients. When everything is straightforward, you can wonder, why do I need a professional to tell me what to do? When things go wrong, that question is answered.
Getting stronger, fitter, and healthier by sticking to the basics. It's not rocket science, it's doing the simple stuff the right way. Strength-Basics updates every Monday, plus extra posts during the week.
