Houston Personal Trainer – Maurice Walker

Why did you become a personal trainer?
I’ve always been active in sports and athletic activities; since my early childhood days throughout high school. However, once I got to college, more responsibilities and less freedom caused my activity involvement to slow down. This continued after graduating college and entering Corporate America, which promoted more laziness for me. Seeing myself slowly getting out of shape, I started working out again and getting more into health & fitness. The more I got into the healthy lifestyle, the more logical it became to me that I could profit off of the time I was spending in the gym. After that, I researched getting certified and obtained my certification and began training professionally.

What are your favorite things about being a personal trainer?
My favorite thing about being a trainer is seeing the changes and improvements in my clients over time. There is no greater feeling for the client and myself than seeing them accomplish something they couldn’t do before. Great trainers help their clients look and feel great.

If you could train one celebrity, who would it be and why?
If I could train one celebrity, it would be Denzel Washington. He seems like a wise and intelligent man and being able to train him would give me an opportunity to pick his brain and get some valuable guidance and information from him.

If you had one workout style to describe yourself, what would it be?
The one training style I think best describes me is high intensity interval training or HIIT. I am a very active and high-energy person, and I feel stagnant when I’m not working on something productive.

In your mind, what is the single biggest benefit for someone to hire a personal trainer?
The single greatest benefit to hiring a personal trainer is that it will SAVE you money in the long run. One medical bill from surgery is equivalent to at least 1 year worth of training with a decent trainer. Instead of being reactive to health problems, be proactive about your health and start doing something now.

What are your hobbies?
Training, reading, football, and sleep.
