I know you asked @georger, but I’ve worked with different trainers before and after cancer. I think the most important thing is finding a trainer you click with. Normally trainers list their qualifications, so find someone who has a certification. There are many certifications, I would look for someone that specializes in things you like to do. Watch them when they train others. Do you like what they are doing? Do they train a similar demographic as you? Let them know your goals. I started out needing to work on balance and stamina. Strength came later as did my confidence.

I would look for someone with the education and experience with training and ideally someone with cancer experience. Thats what I have and I would be happy to work with you but ideally it would be someone living in your area but I will be glad to help long distance.
