A good program has amazing benefits that most of us can't get for ourselves. Someone observing and tracking performance tends to keep us motivated and work harder. A good trainer will know when to push and when to make someone back off a little. Psychology is a big part of developing a program and training someone.
Amen to that. I have been working with a personal trainer twice a week for about 8 months (and I go three other times per week on my own), and I have noticed pretty dramatic results. A trainer is expensive, but I think I'm worth it. She definitely pushes me beyond what I would normally do, and insures that my form is correct. As Leonidas says, I see people making tons of mistakes on form, not getting the most out of their time in the gym, or worse, risking injury.
I know that since I have improved my nutrition and have been a regular at the gym, I just feel a lot better. I hope I'm hooked.
