You may feel intimidated when you think about your health and fitness. Many people do not understand proper nutrition or how to exercise. At Oxygen Fitness O3, we offer a variety of services to help you improve your health. Read on to learn more about how you could benefit from a custom personal fitness trainer in Durango, CO.

Nutrition

Whether your health goals include losing weight, gaining muscle, or maintaining your current lifestyle, nutrition is an important part of your health. The internet is full of different diet plans, such as Keto, Paleo, Whole30, and many more. Some people choose low-carb, vegetarian, or gluten-free diets; others do juice fasting or intermittent fasting to lose weight.

However, all of these options can be overwhelming, and many people find these diets to be unsustainable in the long run. A personal trainer can educate you about nutrition and customize a diet for your goals. Also, a personal trainer will help keep you accountable and stick with it.

Exercise

Many people are intimidated when they walk into a gym. Without a workout plan, the number of machines and options to choose from can easily distract you. Also, you may not know how to use the machinery properly, which can lead to injuries or lack of progress.

For example, some people focus on cardio for weight loss without realizing the benefits of weightlifting for both strength and weight loss. While many cardio machines at the gym like treadmills, ellipticals, and bikes are easy to figure out for the beginner, weightlifting machinery can be much more dangerous if you are not familiar with them.

A personal trainer can walk you through the gym and demonstrate how to use each piece of equipment. They can correct your form and spot you as you lift heavy weights. They can also help you come up with a workout plan from the exact exercises to do to the amount of time to spend doing so each week.
