I've been trying to look up on Google what a trainer is but I can't seem to find out what it exactly is? I am very interested in using a trainer so I need somebody to explain to me in the most noob friendly what a trainer is, how does it help you, and how to use it. Thanks You!

A trainer is an application that intercepts and alters the memory addresses of a game that you have running in the background.
Trainers allow gamers access to features similar to cheat codes, but these may not have been programmed into the game by the developer.
The trainer will need to run while the game is being played as closing the trainer will disable the cheats.

well a trainer is someone or something that help you train something... (jk)

seriously though...
a trainer is a tool that gives you unfair advantage in a game... most of them allow for certain things like unlimited money/health and stuff like that to be activated by with a click of a button...
some others are always active... depends on how they are set up or programmed...
that's the most basic answer you can get about these trainers... i think ^_^'

depends on the platform... ^_^'''
on pc... start the game and the start the trainer... some require an activation button to be pressed others work right away... some others have to be started first and need to be in the same directory as the game itself... those most likely will start the game by them selves...

for the xbox360... well they come with instruction as to how to use them
mostly you will have to place the trainer in your game directory and start the trainer it will start the game automatically
but here you need a jtag/rgh/dev xbox to be able to use them...

for the ps3 (well they aren't really called trainers here) they come as packages... where you star the game through the package...
some others are just elf modifications

on other consoles they are referred to as cheat devices or programs that have a collection of offsets for different games
