What’s the Cost of An Online Personal Trainer?

Share:

In today’s ever-changing digital age, traditional gym settings evolved, paving the way for online personal training. Aspiring fitness enthusiasts and pros now have access to a myriad of options that better meet their schedules, goals, and needs. Let’s explore some factors influencing the cost of an online personal trainer and discover how it can work for you!

The Price Factor

The cost of online personal training varies significantly based on several factors, including:

Level of Trainer Expertise

Just like seeing a trainer in person, the cost of an online personal trainer can vary based on their experience level. For example, renowned trainers who work with celebrities, pro athletes, and others will likely charge substantially higher rates due to their expertise and reputation. This level of trainer may not be accessible to most people. But for the rest of us, finding a trainer with the right certifications and experience is possible without breaking the bank. Here at Forge, we bring 60 years of combined experience, and every coach is fully certified and licensed through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), the American Council on Exercise (ACE), the National Exercise and Sports Trainers Association (NESTA), and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA-CSCS). And you get that at a price that works for your lifestyle and wallet.

Frequency and Duration

Online trainers may charge per session or offer packages based on weekly or monthly commitments. One of the best parts of online training is that it’s possible to tailor to your needs and goals. You’ll probably need more intensive and frequent training if you’re training for a marathon. If you want to get back into a routine after a break, you may want to ramp up slower with less intense workouts. The key is finding a program that meets your budget’s needs. Another factor to consider in pricing is how long a commitment you want to make. Some platforms, like Forge’s, will let you go month-to-month, while others may ask for a longer-term commitment. Crunch the numbers before you crunch your abs to make sure you’re getting the biggest bang for your buck.

Type of Services

Depending on the platform, you may be able to pick the type of workout you participate in, which could affect how much you pay. One-on-one sessions with an online trainer will probably come at a higher price because you’re getting personalized attention, which could be worth it, depending on your goals! But if you want to save a few bucks, finding a platform offering group sessions or specific programs at fixed prices might be the better option. Understanding the cost of online training isn’t just about finding the cheapest option but the one that is right for you and will help you meet your goals.

Additional Features

Are you looking for a bare-bones workout routine, one-on-one training, or a complete program with workouts and meal plans? Online training makes just about anything possible, so you can find what you’re looking for, depending on your budget. Not to toot our own horns, but at Forge, we can offer individualized workout plans, nutritional guidance developed by a registered dietician, and regular access to your trainer starting at a low monthly price. You really can have it all while still keeping your wallet happy.

So, is it Worth it?

At the end of the day, only you can determine your budget and fitness goals and how online coaching can fit in. Benefits such as personalized guidance, flexibility, accountability, and access to expertise anywhere in the world can all make online training the right choice for you. With the right amount of research, finding an online coach that gets both your body and your wallet into great shape is possible.
