I do quite a bit of cardio (three days a week - some sprints, some longer distance up to a 10k) and play basketball and volleyball fairly often.

My main question for trainer I guess would be whether a 24 hour fitness trainer would be worth the time (if anyone has any knowledge on that). I know I probably need to change diet but don't really know what would be most effective.

I have never really lifted so I'm kind of teaching myself at this point. I use dumbbells but don't do much with bars since I workout alone and I don't like having to find someone to spot me.
I also never have a spotter. This is my strength week (low rep sets). Last night, I wasn't on my press day, but asked my trainer if I could switch. I wanted to try to press as much as I could, but I'm always afraid to without a spotter.
