WHY I CHOSE A PERSONAL TRAINER
Instead of just joining a gym…
When I decided I wanted to get fitter, stronger and healthier, I could have simply joined a gym.
But I chose to work with Ian at Gorilla Performance Coaching.
And honestly? I think it was one of the best decisions I made.
Because walking into a gym on my own, I wouldn’t have had a clue where to start.
What exercises should I do?
How much weight should I use?
Am I doing it correctly?
What should I be working on?
And how do I actually know if I’m progressing?
With Ian, I don’t have to worry about any of that.
He knows where I’m starting from and what I want to achieve.
He pushes me when I need pushing, changes things when something isn’t working, makes sure I’m doing exercises correctly and — probably most importantly — he doesn’t let me give up on myself.
And there’s something about having that appointment in the diary too.
It’s accountability.
If I just had a gym membership, it would be very easy to say:
“I’ll go tomorrow.”
With Ian, I’m turning up. 😂
I’ve learned new exercises, got stronger, improved my fitness and, most importantly, I’ve started believing in what my body is capable of.
For me, it’s not PT vs gym.
It’s the difference between having access to a gym and having someone who knows exactly how to help you use it.
And that’s why I chose Ian. ❤️
