About Personal Trainer
A personal trainer is an individual who creates and delivers safe and effective exercise programs for healthy individuals and groups, or those with medical clearance to exercise. They motivate clients by collaborating to set goals, providing meaningful feedback, and by being a reliable source for accountability. Trainers also conduct a variety of assessments beginning with a preparticipation health-screening and may also include assessments of posture and movement, flexibility, balance, core function, cardio-respiratory fitness, muscular fitness, body composition, and skill-related parameters (e.g. power, agility, coordination, speed, and reactivity) to observe and gather relevant information needed to develop an effective exercise program and support client goal attainment. These assessments may be performed at the beginning of and after an exercise program to measure client progress toward improved physical fitness.

The Story
Device recording data from workouts into personal computers
The Pitch on Dragons' Den UK
Personal Trainer appeared on Dragons' Den UK (Series 2, Episode 6) in 2005. Dave Raewlinson pitched the product to the Dragons. No deal.
Where they are now: Personal Trainer's pitch failed due to the dragons' concerns over connecting workout devices directly to computers to activate the device whilst also alleging the concept was not new and already in a failing market.
