    It may be mostly semantics, but I think a trainer is a person who is out there with you, standing over you, and shouting "give me 100 more!", etc.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    My trainer only works with me on developing strength and power. We do weights and plyometrics and yeah, she's right there.

    I think a coach is more about developing a long term training plan. Although my trainer does know when my events are and adjusts what we do at each session accordingly.
