Can exercise programs and diets online really work, and is it comparable with real, live personal trainers? In this article I am going to compare the two and I hope to give you an objective opinion.
First a bit of personal background. I come from a family of big people. My father was six feet six inches (195cm) tall and weighed around three hundred pounds (136 kilograms). Myself and three of my brothers are also over the six feet mark and weigh around the 260 pounds mark. I was not a great sportsman at school. I only started playing rugby in the last two years at school and in the army the year after. Then followed a break for seven years, before I played my last season. I was a tight head prop, and quite unbeknown to me, I injured my bottom two vertebrae. In my job I traveled a lot, drank a lot, smoked a lot and exercised little. Resultantly, I slowly but surely gained weight. I did go to gym for two short stints, encouraged by my brother who was a championship bodybuilder. Each time I had reasonable results, but then my work would transfer me, and I would stop again.

I did not have money for a personal trainer. Here in SA they charge around $200 for twelve sessions. I see in the USA, they charge as much as $60 for a single session. So I used a program that my brother gave me and went on a low carbohydrate diet. The training program consisted of two components: A cardiovascular part and a weight-training part. The first day, after the cardiovascular training, I thought I was going to die. I had to rest three times in the 100 yards I had to walk back to my car. But slowly but surely I got fitter, and I could run, row and cycle for longer periods. At first I lost weight very quickly, but after about twenty pounds, I stopped loosing weight.

I do not believe in taking diet pills and other appetite suppressants. Even if they should work, which is debatable, you have to stop using them sometime. Your appetite will return and you will regain the weight lost. One may use a bit of a protein substitute because it is handy when you are at work and cannot cook, and some vitamins and minerals, but that is all. Personally I believe that one should not loose more than two pounds a week, as that much, combined with the exercises, will result in your skin shrinking with you, and leaving you smooth and unwrinkled. I also told my trainer that I do not want to look like a bodybuilder, just have a reasonable physique. My objective was to loose weight and be healthier.
