(Looking for a personal trainer that will come to your home? Just enter your location into the search box on the ukfitness.pro homepage, then use the “Training location” filter to find a local personal trainer that will come to you. For example, here's a list of PTs in London that can come to your home.)

The past year has changed the way in which many of us exercise. 

If you previously trained in the gym, the lockdowns in the UK likely forced you to spend time at home working out. Many people are still unsure about heading back to their local gym and so have opted to continue working out from home for the time being. In fact, most people find this to be a much more cost-friendly and convenient solution, which works around their lifestyle and personal commitments. 

Keep reading as we explore the amazing benefits of personal training from home and why you should consider continuing with this type of training moving forward.

Personal Training from Home Rates

One of the great things about personal training from home is the lower cost

You’ll no longer have to pay for an expensive gym membership just to keep fit. Whether you are training with a personal trainer physically in your home or online, they won’t have to cover the costs of working out of a gym, and so they can pass these cost savings on to you. Many personal trainers are finding this to be a much better option for both themselves and their clients, and you’ll find that in the long term, you’ll save a good amount of money from training at home either with one-on-one training sessions or online group sessions. 

You can see personal training from home rates by going to the ukfitness.pro homepage, entering your location into the search box, then using the “Training location” filter to find personal trainers that come to you.

The Convenience of Personal Training from Home

The top reason that most people have continued to enjoy personal training from home even once gyms reopened is the convenience factor

After a long day at work, the last thing you often want to do is drive or walk to the gym for a training session. Instead, the minute you finish work, you can get ready for your training session in the comfort of your own home. You’ll cut down the time you spend commuting to and from the gym, which can be better spent elsewhere. 

So many of us are finding this benefit from working from home, and it’s something that can be applied to almost any activity you used to travel to before the pandemic.

Personal Training from Home is More Private

If you are someone who is relatively new to personal training or feels like they are constantly comparing themselves to other people at the gym, personal training from home will offer you improved privacy

Instead of having to compare yourself to someone working out on the treadmill next to you, you can focus solely on your training session. Many people find they are much more confident and progress further in a shorter amount of time when they start working out from home. 

You’ll no longer feel like you are behind on your fitness journey and can just focus on how good your personal training session makes you feel after.

Personal Training from Home to Fit Around Your Lifestyle

We’re all looking for ways to make exercise an effortless part of our lives, and personal training from home can offer you just that. 

Mums and dads of young children often find this to be an excellent solution, as they don’t have to worry about getting someone else to look after their child just to go to the gym. Personal training sessions can be booked to fit your current schedule and needs, so you won’t have to cancel any of your other plans just to fit this in. 

If you are lucky enough to have a flexible working schedule, you’ll be able to fit a personal training session in during your lunch break so that you don’t have to head to the gym after work when you’d rather relax.

Personal Training from Home is Tailored to Your Needs

As with any type of personal training, personal training from home will also be fully customised to fit your needs

If you are working through an injury currently, it’s a great way to ensure that you safely recover without pushing yourself too far. It can be so easy to feel like you need to compete with someone on spinning bikes or when lifting weights at the gym, but this won’t be the case at home. 

When you are having a low energy day, your personal trainer can also work with you to create a session plan that fits your needs for that current time.

The Comfort of Personal Training from Home

On a weekend morning, there’s nothing better than rolling out of bed, putting on your favourite workout gear, and training at home. 

Instead of feeling like you have to get dressed up for the gym, you can enjoy working out anywhere in your home with a personal trainer. Many of us find this type of workout to be so much more relaxing, and it often results in improved long-term fitness results. 

You won’t waste time getting ready to go to the gym and can still enjoy the benefits of working out from the comfort of your own home.

No Distractions When Personal Training from Home

It’s so easy to be distracted by other people at the gym, but at home, all you have to focus on is yourself and your training sessions. 

Neither you nor your PT will be distracted by noise or other people, so you’ll find this is such an effective way to train. Many personal trainers at gyms follow a set routine and don’t offer the fully personalised service you’ll be able to receive at home. 

On top of that, you’ll find that it’s easier to recreate your workouts at home on days when you aren’t training with a personal trainer, as you won’t be relying on the gym’s equipment and setup.

Final Words on Personal Training from Home

As you can see, there are so many reasons why individuals are continuing to exercise from home, even long after the gyms have started to reopen. The convenience and cost saving benefits of this type of training are well worth investing in working with a personal trainer at home, and you’ll find that you will quickly reach your fitness goals this year working out at home.
