choosing a trainer

where to start?

On a number of occasions recently I have seen people post a request into a local group along
the lines of “I’m new to the area, can anybody recommend a Personal Trainer for me?”
Inevitably every trainer in the area shouts “look at me, look at me” and a few of the really good
ones get recommended by their clients. But is this answering the question, and in particular
the last two words “FOR ME”?
