I'm curious about this, as a PT myself. I'm sure there's billions of people out there who are too shy or not financially able or... well, I wonder what else stops people. I train beginners and my aim is to get non-starters started, and build confidence.

What would help you get started?

A combination of

Expense.
Having chronic conditions which I worry I would be encouraged to push too hard and make them worse.
I want to exercise, strengthen and lose weight, but even walking is tough.
Shyness / awkwardness.

Probably more I can't word too.
