A few years ago, I aggravated a pre-existing back injury that sent me to the emergency room… which ultimately ended in surgery. Although my back pain has subsided, I have permanent nerve damage which makes it extremely difficult to activate certain muscles. I lost a lot of strength and have fear around re-injuring myself.
This week I wanted to share with you a raw, unedited session I recently had with my trainer Rudy. With a splash of Abdominal work, this workout primarily focuses on safely strengthening my Back and Shoulders.
“Wait… hold up!! Did a personal trainer just say she has her own personal trainer?”
Most people are surprised when they learn that I work with a trainer each week. They want to know why someone with my credentials and experience would need someone to guide me through my workouts.
Some benefits of working with a fitness professional include:
Hold you accountable
Help you overcome plateaus
Help you stay motivated
Help you prepare for a sport or event
Help you exercise safely and keep you injury-free
A personal trainer can help create a unique workout plan to fit your individual needs and goals, and can accommodate an injury or other obstacle that might otherwise prevent you from exercising.
