5 Reasons to Buy a Custom Fitness Video in 2020

Posted On January 15, 2020

First of all, what is a custom fitness video? A custom fitness video is a video that is made especially for you by a fitness professional (such as myself). Have you ever gone to a yoga class and just “fell in love” with the teacher? Their voice, their style of teaching, the way they make you feel? It’s not a surprise that people become attached to their fitness instructors. Exercise creates a similar chemical response in the brain as falling in love.

So what if you could take that teacher with you? Perhaps you could hear their voice pushing you to exercise in the comfort of your own home. Perhaps you could exercise along with them everyday. The reality is, you can. Technology exists to make this happen. Rather than logging into online fitness class where you are one student among many, you can log into your own phone and pull up a class made just for you.

Custom videos can be tailored to your fitness level

Just starting out and not sure where to start? Nervous about going to the gym? Have knee issues that prevent you from certain classes? A custom fitness video can meet you where you are in your fitness journey. They can help you to feel more confident when you decide to set foot in the gym.

Perhaps you have been exercising for a long time, and some of the basic fitness videos available online are not for you. You want some new exercises and a new challenge. A custom fitness video can help you spice up your fitness routing.

Custom videos can help you get practice in certain areas

Have you always wanted to understand a particular exercise? Do you want to walk into a class and feel like you know what you are doing? A custom fitness video can help you gain strength in a particular area. You can ask to have them go into detail about the form of a specific exercise.

For example, say you really want to develop your chest muscles. You can have a custom fitness video to go through the details of a bench press and it’s different variations. And also the details of various other chest exercises, such as correct form, which part of the chest is most developed by the exercise, etc.

Custom videos are great for traveling

As a yoga teacher, I am sometimes asked to record some yoga classes for my students who travel. They want to practice yoga in their hotel room while they are out of town. Guess what? This can be done. If you are a frequent traveler and want some exercises that you can perform in a hotel gym, or even your hotel room, you can commission a custom fitness video to meet your needs. Rather than searching through thousands of videos on YouTube, you can pull up the a video that was made just for you.

Custom videos can be made with injuries in mind

Have you been avoiding exercise classes because of an injury? Do you want to go to a yoga class but feel like you can’t participate in the class because some of the poses trigger an injury? You can have a custom yoga video that works around your injury. Or perhaps you could have a custom video that helps strengthen your muscles that need developing.

It’s like having a virtual personal trainer

Have you always wanted a personal trainer, but you are too nervous to work with someone face-to-face? Nearly everything can be done virtually. It is 2020 after all. If you don’t have the energy to go to the gym and find a personal trainer you like, you can find someone online that works for you. Perhaps the go-go/push-you-to-the-limit attitude that is generally associated with personal trainers is a bit of a turn-off. A custom fitness video can provide the gentle encouragement that you need in the comfort of your own phone.

Perhaps you are not someone who enjoys fitness classes. Men are especially apprehensive about attending fitness classes. And that is okay. Fitness classes are not for everyone. Perhaps you have heard that Pilates is a great core workout, and your goal is to work on your core strength. But you do not want to go to a class. Perhaps you want to challenge yourself to try something new and mix up your fitness routine. But you don’t want to do the research. Have a virtual personal trainer do it for you!
