I was doing physio for a number of years, and it use to piss me off so much. The therapist would say 'do this, this, and this', show me, then leave to go flirt with the secretary for 30 minutes.
Of course I realize not everybody is like that, but it really soured my experience with trainers.
On another occasion, I had a personal trainer come to my home six times, one-on-one, and it was amazing. Night and day experience. She did an assessment, showed me a bunch of different things and what to work on. We went to the gym in my building and she showed me what was of most benefit to me.
I would have someone come over again if it weren't something like $140 (~2011 dollars) each time.
