Implying people need to start with a trainer is pointlessly exclusionary.
When I started training I couldn't afford a gym membership so primarily did bodyweight training at home, so a trainer was just completely off the radar as an option.
Sure, once I could afford the gym I could train a lot better, and the may have neen true if I could afford a trainer on top, but I couldn't.
- ikr678 5y ago'get a trainer' is proxy for 'get a form check', which is fair advice to prevent long term injury. There are many beginner friendly lifting resources online, and communities who will help you review videos of your lifts without needing a specific trainer.
- Aicy 5y ago"Get a form check " is definitely good advice and if that's all the person I responded to said I would have agreed with them.
