My trainer (wow, what weird thing for me to say) couldn't be more different in appearance. Derek is a big power lifter muscles on his muscles kind of guy. He's also been terrific about making me feel comfortable with the equipment. He's matter of fact about my not being up on all the lingo but he doesn't talk down to me.
I'd say maybe it's a trainer thing but I have heard some real horror stories. Maybe it's just a *good* trainer thing.
And aside from the feel good buzz you can get from working out I find a new satistfaction in becoming competent in a new arena. So, go you! You rock!
