So I’ve been checkin out T-Nation for almost a year now and I have no idea why it only came to me now that I’ve got to be a member heh.
The reason I’m posting this is in hopes of possibly obtaining a personal trainer. I was wondering if anyone here would know any trainers in the Toronto (Canada) area, that have trainers that are at least to a certain degree or as knowledgeable, experienced, and wise as many of the authors for T-Nation.
I come from a background of competative dancesport- you can check that out on Youtube to get a better idea of what it’s all about. There are great levels of strength, dexterity, agility, and somewhat flexability amongst several other things that are involved in making what I do well and successful.
I had some experience working out and with a trainer in the passed. Last year I started working out and started with a trainer right away.
My stats went up quite well I must say but of course didn’t touch many weights in my life before and definately not as disciplined. When I started I weighed in at 136lbs with a bodyfat of 15% at a height of 5’9".
At the end of that 6 months I acumulated a total of 157lbs at 12%. I must mention though, when i started training at the gym I started with a personal trainer as well, however he relocated and realistically, his knowledge seemed rather generic and not to some of the precise detail that I’ve been reading here.
Usually everytime I check out an article here there’s always something in it that blows my mind away.
When I read “5 myths of training athletes” [Five Myths About Training Athletes] I knew that I’m in great need of the kind of personal trainer I mentioned previously.
Anyhow I think I’ve spoken enough about this, if anyone could recommend what I’m looking for in the Toronto vicinity I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks a lot.
-Good ol’ Herc.
