All of the contestants of The Springfield Paper and Springfield Health and Fitness Center's Commit to Be Fit Contest lost weight in week 2. The big winner of the week is David Reeves who lost a whopping 6 pounds. David did that by cleaning up his diet. He had given up sodas, even diet ones, years ago. David did add more vegetables and water . David knows that finding an exercise and diet program that he can live with is key to making the lasting changes that he will need to continue his healthy lifestyle.
It is interesting to note that although David had the resources of personal trainers at his disposal, he did his weight loss on his own by coming to the gym every day and walking on the treadmill programmed for intervals.
As a trainer myself for many years I am the first say, not everyone needs to hire a trainer. If you are looking for specific training, or want someone to push you a trainer is invluable. Trainers are also good to help trouble shoot your workouts if you are not getting the results you want on your own. A good gym can help you get started without the added expense of a personal trainer and will have a knowledgeable staff to help you if you have questions.
