I agree, be honest…no answer is wrong. I worked with other trainers back in the days when I was learning the ropes. In this profession, we all learn from each other.

Best,
Harris

If you haven’t ever worked with a Personal Trainer, I highly recommend that you do from time to time. You cannot see everything about your form in a mirror. You may have fallen into a routine that is not really progressing your fitness. You will probably learn something you don’t know or learn that something you thought you knew is incorrect. You might just be able to help some of the other trainer’s clients with your expertise and vice versa.

There are just as many reasons for a trainer to work with another trainer as there are for someone that is not a trainer to work with a trainer. We are all really just human beings and we have the same issues in life. An outside opinion can be a breath of fresh air, so to speak.

I answer truthfully.

Yes, I’ve used a personal trainer for 10 sessions and I had a bi-weekly health coach for 6 months.

Always answer truthfully, that way you can build rapport with the client and they can trust you.

I personally have worked with a trainer, as well as trained many trainers. You learn a lot from each other that way. Also, sometimes you just can’t push yourself as hard as someone else can!
