Hi John,

AN interesting post. One reason because of the post itself and the point that you raise about a good session needing to "click" for the trainer as well.

Interesting on another level because I remember you saying you would not pay more than $75 per hour for anything. So I wonder is the $100 session is a figure of speech or if inflation has caught up with you.

I do think that charging $100 or more per session is not out of line if you (plural you, as in anyone) can manage it. There are many professional fields that charge much more than this, but trainers have more issues to deal with in the perception of value. I think this is not just from the clients perspective, but also from the trainers.

Cheers

Peter
