Why to Use a Trainer
There is nothing worse than devoting months in a gym and thousands of dollars with a personal trainer, only to realize that you have not made any progress. You would be surprised that many people spend a lot of time doing vigorous training that does not match their fitness goals because they were using a trainer without the proper qualifications and certifications.
Everybody is different, and that means everyone’s capabilities and requirements differentiate when it comes to exercising. This could be anything from recovering after an injury, to having weak knees that need rebuilding the muscles or improving mobility. You are going to need a knowledgeable personal trainer who can help you develop a training program so that you can attain your goals!
Here at Built Strong Athletics, we have qualified and experienced Personal Trainers and Strength and Conditioning Coaches that can help you achieve your goals in more ways than you may have considered!
Our Personal Trainers and Strength and Conditioning Coaches can help with
1. Reducing injury risk - Ignorance and poor execution are common catalysts for injury. An educated personal trainer will enhance your execution and skill by teaching you the proper forms and techniques and get the most out of each activity. Not only that, our trainers and coaches will help you balance your exercises and focus on the areas in your body that need more support.
2. Motivation - Exercising can be a struggle sometimes, especially after a long day at work. Staying committed and consistent to your workout plan can be difficult. Having a trainer by your side can provide the encouragement, confidence, and motivation you need to keep chasing the vision you have in mind.
3. Personalized Plan - A knowledgeable trainer will conduct an evaluation of your particular needs, injuries, health conditions and training goals (that 15km race you’re dreaming about, for example). At Built Strong Athletics, you will go through an interview process and a full functional assessment, so that our PT and Coaches can understand the obstacles, movement patterns, activation issues, alignment issues, weakness, as well as goals and aspirations. Then our trainers and coaches will develop a customized program with clear timelines that will safely and effectively allow you to succeed.

Personal Training and Strength and Conditioning is so much more than lunges and burpees. The human body is a complex machine with thousands of components. We have different energy systems that are trained specifically, different muscle fibers that respond to certain stimuli and we have neurological pathways that need to be created. Training for sport involves a complex periodization training involving, alignment correction, transition work, stability, agility, power, speed, activation, mobility, strength, plyometrics, stretch reflex, endurance, oxygen recovery as well as so much more. Programming for an athlete is scientific and specific to goals and sport, there is absolutely no way an individual without the proper certifications could accomplish this type of execution.
