i 've been following my own weight lifting routine , rather than hiring a coach , and i 've been making great progress . i feel like research is better than paying someone to help you . definitely . if you can motivate and get on a schedule yourself , you can save a lot of money . absolutely . in today 's world where information is at your finger tips , a personal trainer is a waste of money , in my opinion . though i guess it 's good for those who do n't have time to do their own research . how long have you been training ? it 's been about 5 years now . i 've learned so much since i first started .
