Low Priced Dallas Personal Trainers - Does a Low Price Mean the Quality is Bad?
Having just given some of my thoughts on expensive Dallas personal trainers, I will now give my thoughts on cheaply priced trainers as well.
In general, fitness professionals with low prices are not very good. Think of it this way: if a trainer has been training in Dallas for 10 years and yet has extremely low prices, why have they not raise them to a normal level? Why do they remain low?
Is it because they do not get referrals from existing clients? If so, that is a bad sign that their existing clients may not be satisfied with the results they are receiving. Is it because they have a bad reputation and other trainers do not feel comfortable recommending them? If so, that is a bad sign as well.
At the end of the day, low prices from an experienced trainer generally mean that the quality will be bad. That is unless there are some odd extenuating circumstances that are the reason for them temporarily having low prices. Maybe they stepped out of the training business to stay home with their children for a few years and now that their kids are in school they are back in to training full time and are just offering discounts as they are launching their business back up. Maybe they had several clients move to another city all at once and they are having to quickly fill some spots in their schedule so they are offering discounts.
They possibilities are endless.
If you find an experienced trainer who is in such circumstances then you may very well have a great opportunity to get an excellent price on excellent training.
The other possibility is that the trainer is relatively new to the business and is still building up his clientele. If this is the case and the trainer is truly knowledgeable and passionate about fitness, then you may be able to get in with a very high quality trainer at a great price. And if you are lucky, they may even "grandfather" you in to a certain extent and let your training rates stay at a level that is well below their normal rates in years to come. They will probably not keep you at the super low rate you started at, but still, you may stay $5-$10 an hour cheaper than their other clients for years to come which will really amount to alot of savings over the years.
