#6 - The Danger in DIY: Why You Hire a Coach for Your Fitness

Robert Santana and Trent Jones are no strangers to the DIY concept, and embrace the idea of learning and trying things for yourself. With any do-it-yourself endeavor, however, you're going to encounter a fair amount of mistakes and setbacks in the process of learning a new skill. Fitness is no exception, and while a few have successfully DIY'd themselves to a high level of fitness, most people fail to achieve their fitness goals, especially over a long period of time (how many people do you know that have lost a significant amount of weight, only to gain it back in a year?).

This is where a coach comes in. Just like any master teacher or instructor, a coach has a solid grasp of a cohesive system or model of training. With this system a coach can effectively evaluate a person and determine their deficiencies, and devise with a plan to address them. A coach has both the knowledge and experience to evaluate an athlete and draw up a training program.

So, if you want to take your fitness to the next level, or have been struggling for years to make progress and achieve your goals, hiring a coach -- even for a few workouts -- can help you figure out where you are going wrong, and what you need to do to correct your deficiencies.
