What's a fitness training session like?
Basically, the easiest way to describe it is it's like a news broadcast, except you can talk to the person inside your TV/computer monitor. We broadcast our sessions LIVE over the Internet. In your sessions, you follow along with what your trainer is instructing you to do, when you have questions, just ask because they're answered in real-time. There's a chat interface for you to ask questions; when you ask a question, your trainer sees it and answers it right then during the broadcasted session. The LIVE broadcasted sessions have LIVE audio and video; you can see your trainer, but at this time, your trainer can't see you.
How does training with Your Live Trainers work?
First, you need to log into the "Clients Only" section of the website. Next, on the client website, you'll see a link that says "Log into session". Once you click that link and sign in, you'll be redirected to the training session homepage. On the left-hand side of the training homepage, you'll see a cell phone tower/radio tower icon that says "Shows". Click on this icon. You'll then see the session on the air along with the Your Live Trainers logo. When you click on the logo, you'll join the training session with your trainer. Since there will be a group of you training at one time, you can communicate with your trainer by typing a question in the chat section of the training page. Your trainer will see your question and will be able to answer it as you train together. You'll also have the option to answer any poll questions your trainer asks. You can also make the training video display full screen by clicking the computer monitor icon below the training video section of the web page. When in full screen, press ESC to return to the smaller screen. When the session is over, click the "End" icon. That's it! It's really simple once you start your first training session and see for yourself. Hope to hear from you soon. If you ever have any problems, contact us and let us know what you need help with. Keep up the hard work!
What are the benefits of being a client?
Your program will consist of live, online training which allows you to communicate back and forth with your trainer during your sessions. We'll also help you develop healthy eating habits to get you to your goals. Also, you'll receive a personalized cardio program that'll anticipate when your body will plateau from working out. If you don't switch up your exercise routine, your body will become efficient at the exercises it's doing, and you won't get the results you want. We'll provide you with a cardio and resistance training program that changes to allow your body to stay on track, without plateauing, and achieve your fitness goals as fast as possible. You'll also have 24/7 access to a personal training staff no matter where you are. As a client, you'll receive the guidance you need in all 5 essential components of fitness to help you reach your goals as fast as possible.
Will I be able to talk with my trainer during the session?
Yes. This is what makes Your Live Trainers such a neat concept. During your session, you'll be able to communicate back and forth through a live computer chat just as if your trainer was actually in the room with you! Once you type a question, comment, suggestion, etc., your trainer will be able to see it and address it while in the training session. You'll hear and see your trainer live through your computer screen and speakers during the training session!
How many people can workout together?
Buddy sessions are for two clients at a time. If more than two people want to work out together, then more buddy session packages would need to be purchased. For example, if 5 people want to work out together, then two buddy session packages and one individual session package would need to be purchased. Sorry, we cannot have more than two people assigned to a buddy session package. We encourage as many people to work together as possible because it'll be more motivating and fun for each friend to be able to work out together.
If I sign up with a buddy, do we both have to train at the same time?
No. You'd be able to train at different times if you wanted to. You each would get the number of sessions the training package says. For example, if you chose the 12 session package, you both would have 12 sessions to use whenever you wanted.
Do you ship the training equipment out of the U.S.?
Unfortunately, we can only have the start-up equipment shipped within the 48 contiguous states of the United States.
What type of Internet connection is best for training?
A high-speed Internet connection is required in order to utilize our online training sessions. One other note is that wireless connections don't work very well.
