Personal trainers do tend to be pricey. The ones at the gym I was going to were $100 for a week. At first you think, "That's not that bad." Well the catch is he only meets with you once in that week and only for 30 minutes. He tells you what you need to do on your own for the reminder of the week. After asking about it, I decided it was easier to just pop in a DVD at home and call it good. :)
