After a few years of being in a lifting slump, I finally broke down about 15 weeks ago and hired one for 2x a week. It's a very expensive decision but 100% worth it in my book.
What I've found is we're creatures of habit and unless you're super disciplined to the point you'll push yourself to your real limit, we never reach our true potential. We always stop short.
Mine is kettlebel certified (and this is a russian exercise that's a special sort of torture) and is currently teaching me all sorts of routines and moves. I'm flabbergasted how far I've gone. I went from a 8kg bell to 20 in about 12 weeks. My endurance and strength is increasing and inches and pounds are decreasing. ;-)
