Tips on finding the right Personal Trainer for you

When it comes to choosing a personal trainer near you, always make sure they are aware of your specific fitness goals. Your personal trainer should be able to craft an exercise programme tailored to your needs and objectives, so it's important to discuss what you want to achieve early on. If you aren't sure what this is don't worry, your fitness expert will be able to help you set realistic goals in an initial consultation.

Your personal trainer is responsible for implementing an exercise plan to help transform your strength, fitness, and form. They can also provide nutritional guidance and diet planning. They must have suitable experience to ensure any fitness plan isn't going to hinder your progress or cause an injury. You should always hire a personal trainer who is suitably qualified, as this demonstrates they have the required knowledge to train you. Qualifications of fitness trainers can include Level 2 and Level 3 diplomas covering fitness instruction, certificates in sports massages, and diplomas in nutrition and healthcare.

Whether you’re aiming to win a triathlon, exceed your expectations in the gym, lose weight, or exercise around a pre-existing health condition, you can find local or online personal trainers with Bark, who are certified and ready to help you achieve your fitness goals.

A local PT will cater to all different types of exercise programmes such as spinning, free weights, or high-intensity interval training (HIIT), helping you to unlock your true performance potential.

Is it worth hiring a Personal Trainer?

What do you love most about your job?

There’s far too many things to pick from! If I’ve got to narrow it down to just one, it’s very rewarding helping someone on a potentially life-changing journey. I get to see real change in my clients, whether that be in their overall health, weight, or attitude.

How did you get into personal training?

I was always athletic at school. I was a part of as many sports clubs as possible and I would never seem to slow down – being active is simply who I am. When I first joined a gym I quickly learnt that I could set new milestones and beat them again and again. Being able to see progression was fascinating and pushing myself to new limits was great. I became friends with the personal trainers at my gym and the job they were describing was simply perfect for me. I then booked onto my first training course and the rest was history!

What qualifications have you achieved?

I have a Master Personal Trainer Diploma, certifications in sports massage, and even ante and postnatal instructing. I’m certified to instruct cycling, weight lifting, and circuit training.

What variety of training options do you provide for clients?

I can work with clients from home, at a local gym, in public areas/parks, from my private workout studio, or even at their office. Modern life is busy and can be difficult to balance, so we can discuss the most suitable options for your routine and budget.

Training with Matt has been an absolute game-changer. When I first approached him over a year ago, I was eager to reignite my love for strength training and had specific goals to meet. Matt listened intently to my aspirations and crafted a personalised training program that perfectly aligned to my goals. Our weekly sessions fast became a highlight of my week. They were more than just workouts; they were a source of endless laughter, motivation, and camaraderie. From strength training and running to exploring the world of quadruhiit, Matt always pushed me to be the best version of myself (even when I’d complain about burpees). Beyond his exceptional training expertise, Matt has become one of my dear friends. He's always there to lend an ear, offer advice, or have a gossip over coffee. I wholeheartedly recommend Matt to anyone seeking a dedicated, knowledgeable, and compassionate trainer. His ability to create fun and versatile workouts, tailored to individual needs, is unparalleled. Combined with advice around nutrition and a soundboard for all life’s antics - he really is a man of many hats. With Matt in your corner, you'll not only achieve your fitness goals but also embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal growth, and gain a lifelong friend in the process – it's a win-win!

I first found Sarah online after desperately searching for someone who could help me. I was having such a hard time and felt like I'd lost control. My husband is having chemotherapy and I want to be the most attentive and supportive wife I can be whilst myself suffering from multiple sclerosis and (at the time) undiagnosed ADHD. I was in a constant state of anxiety, feeling overwhelmed and using food to cope. I have always struggled with my weight and emotional eating but this was snowballing! Sarah was kind and understanding from the word go. She really took onboard everything I had going on and helped me make changes that were both possible in the first place but that I could also maintain. She understood that I come home from work exhausted and that I wasn't going to be spending lots of time cooking and exercising (not in any long-term, sustainable way anyway). She also understood that at times I have to pull back from exercise so as not to exasperate any MS symptoms. Sarah gave me tools to tackle sugar addiction. These tools are working very well and I will continue using them forever! I have also gradually reduced my intake of processed food, an ongoing process with no harsh set meal plans which would be too difficult to follow at this point in time. I have lost about half a stone and it hasn't been stressful at all. Sarah sent me workouts which focused on strength. They are short and high intensity meaning I can fit them in on my lunch hour from work and still feel like I've had a really thorough workout. This way of exercising has been a revelation. I never thought I could get enough of a workout in on my lunch hour. This frees up my evenings to be with my husband which is where I really want to be and I still feel stronger than ever. Sarah has me feeling stronger than I did a decade ago when I was first diagnosed with MS!!
