Mark Scudder was playing adventurist,
rock climbing in Alaska. Then his foot
gave out, he slipped, took a fall; when
he quit tumbling, he noticed this
aching sensation.
Diagnosis: broken foot.
For three months Scudder was
immobilized. His only exercise was
remote-control presses. That, and hob-
bling into the kitchen for chips and a
brew.
As his energy decreased, Scudder's
waistline increased. He gained 30
pounds in three months.
"And I wasn't in shape to begin
with," said the 53-year-old San Diego
home builder. "I went into a slight state
of depression."
Rather than go to a counselor to
help him break out of his emotional
funk, Scudder did what hundreds of
professional athletes and thousands of
workout buffs do.
He hired a personal trainer.
When Scudder began working out,
he could do 10 minutes on the Stair-
Master. That's not counting the three
rest breaks.
months later, he hits the
machine an hour a day, five days a
week. He endures three hourlong
weightlifting workouts a week. He has
dropped 30 pounds to 240 and says he
won't slow down until he weighs 215.
Scudder pays $35 an hour to work
with a personal trainer and considers
the fee a steal.
"I'd pay $50 without blinking," he
says.
Plenty of other people are seeking
out personal trainers, too.
"Before, they were just for the stars
or the super rich," said Lisa Strassmann,
fitness and programs director for the
Sporting Club in San Diego. "Now,
everyday people realize it's part of their
everyday fitness routine."
Strassmann said the percentage of
clients using personal trainers at the
Sporting Club has increased 15 percent
this past year.
