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. — Copley News Service.
