How much does a personal trainer costs in santo domingo?
I am looking for a cheap or affordable personal trainer in santo domingo, anybody knows one? How much they usually cost there?
I used to have a personal trainer that charged $100 per month, i wonder if i will find that kind of deal in SD.
In Santo Domingo you have a couple choices of gyms. Gold’s (no nonsense and the best), Body Shop (lots of high tech stuff and a pool), and Body and Health. Oh yes, Body Shop actually has two location. So, if you want to go to a gym, those are you best choices.
There is no such thing as a licensed personal trainer in the Dominican Republic. Generally, a personally trainer means a meat head, that’s pumped up really big on steroids, and knows nothing about physiology, kinesiology, or nutrition. Then there is also about a 50/50 chance that he knows anything about proper form when it comes to lifting weights.
The price of these guys, I’m not really sure. But they are cheap. I’m sure it’s way less than $100 USD per month.
Now, if you want a “real” US certified personal trainer I know of one. And one only. Yep, that’s one in the entire country that I’m aware of. But I dont know everyone, so it would be safe to assume there may be 2-3 more in the whole country.
She charges about $100USD per hour. I know she comes to your house and it’s 1 on 1. I also know she only does women at the moment. Maybe that will change in the future, I’m not sure. Remember, the rich here are very very rich. And money is no object.
If you want to lift, go to a gym and make some friends. Find someone to work out with that’s at about the same level as you. I wouldn’t waste my money on a personal trainer if I was you, unless maybe you are just starting out. If you’ve been lifting for any time and know what you are doing. Dont hire a personal trainer here. You’ll just be throwing your money away.
