Does anyone know of any affordable personal trainers in downtown? Everyone I find is minimally $80, which is a lot! Any suggestions?

    What are you looking for - someone in your home or a private room in a gym?

    Pre-wedding I bought personal training sessions at my gym, Xsport.  It was $52 a session.  I used some of my tax return and bought 20.  My family thought it was stupid  and a poor use of my money (I work-out/run on a regular basis anyways), but I definitely saw more toning and definition having a trainer than doing stuff on my own.

    However, I will say the frustrating thing was that I went through a few different trainers b/c they kept getting promoted or moved.  I did complain and get a few free sessions to make up for it though.

    Ha, seriously?!  Why am I not surprised!  Seriously! Maybe it depends on the location?  I go to the one on Ashland in Lakeview.

    I don't know if you have someone who's interested; but you can also do it with a partner; so 2 people with 1 trainer per session.  A friend and I looked into doing that and it was like $13 cheaper per session (so for me - single session was $52, but with a friend it dropped to $39)
