If you can afford it, a trainer at a good gym will make a big difference. That’s how I got started and I really got results. They can make a program that’s setup for your goals and tweak it to keep it interesting. Plus the social pressure of having the appointment was what I needed to get out of bed early and get to the gym on time, especially when I didn’t feel like doing it.

- generalenvelope 5y agopreface with: I am not against trainers. I think they can be very valuable for the reasons you mentioned - encouragement, "managing" the technicalities, instructing your technique/nutrition. With that said, I would recommend using a trainer in combination with at least one separate resource - like barbell medicine. I've had personal experience with trainers that pedaled pseudo science (or sometimes straight BS) as fact, or recommended methods that weren't aligned with my goals.
