Reestablishing the personal training standard

Think back about 15 years. When you heard of Personal Trainers you thought of a small group of elite specialized physical gurus. They were right there by the side of that postpartum celebrity, one on one, guiding them, teaching them and being directly responsible for making sure they achieved miraculous results and back in front of the camera, before pictures of the baby hit the news stands.
The problem then was, the reason only celebrities had personal trainers was, they were the only ones who could afford them. The general public were left being herded in to the “Big gyms”. Left to do their own research, experimentation and attempts at self motivation.
The problem now is that the personal fitness and training industry has exploded in the last 10 years or so. With such immense growth has come multitudes of "trainers” and as the laws of economics have taught us, as the quantity of optional offerings goes up, the quality of most goes down. To accommodate this trend there are countless agencies now who will "certify" individuals, primarily through online and correspondence methods. Some people have decent test-taking skills and can end up with a personal trainer certification in a couple of weeks, regardless of whether or not they have any practical application, experience, or are even in shape themselves. These are the types of "trainers" the gyms are hiring and this is the level of quality that the training industry is lowering itself to.
Symmetry Personal Fitness is reestablishing the personal training standard. By that we don't mean providing a privileged, out of reach service, but rather, putting that bar of quality and attention back up. At Symmetry Personal Fitness, we take your fitness very seriously. That goal oriented, motivated mentality is a requirement for anyone who works for Symmetry Personal Fitness. Fitness and a healthy lifestyle is not just a job for our trainers- it's our life, it's something that we love sharing and would really love for it to become a part of yours.
Our goal is to make every aspect of training with Symmetry Personal enjoyable and beneficial. We are extremely competitive and we hope that that will raise the bar for our competitors, forcing the quality of the industry to improve in quality and service.

Yours in health ,
