Default Re: Hire personal trainer?

[ QUOTE ]
Is my friend getting ripped off? He's paying 80 dollars per session for 24 sessions which come out to be 1920. One session is an hour long. I think he's paying way too much but he really needs it. He's 5'11 and about 260 pounds. He is more motivated now because he's paying alot of money. Maybe that is the key? He's going twice a week so the whole thing is going to take 3 months. What happens after that though? Without the trainer will he stop going? If that is so he's going to have to pay someone for his rest of his life?

80 is on the higher side but is not out of the ordinary for a competent trainer... Some even charge upwards of 100 per hour. Hopefully after the 3 months your friend will have seen that he can lose the weight with hard work and have that as a motivation.
