6:54 I just rated all of these for myself as if I were the client... And I rated them from bottom up 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Postural Improvement is most important to me because I think of it as the foundation; if it's screwed up, so is everything else. Mobility is next because I'm stiff, crunchy, and tight all over the place and if I can't move - it doesn't matter how ripped or strong I am. Muscle Gain is third because I won't get it optimally unless I have the first two taken care of, but also third because more lean muscle means more Strength (my number four) and (five) a higher metabolism to 'burn' more (fat) Weight. Am I a nerd? Or just think I'm a nerd but really don't know wtf I'm talking about? But if I would have rated them correctly, I think I'd say they all rate a "1" because all of them are really important to me. Also, question: at 8:15 - is your phasing system from bottom up? Stability first and phasing up to Total Body Lean the 49th week?

I’m not looking to lose or gain anymore weight. I want to remain around 50-56kg. My main goal is to lose upper body fat especially my shoulders and waist and grow muscle on my lower body whilst improving my endurance and flexibility. I mainly do cardio at home without gym equipments but I haven’t been consistent lately cause of school etc. Idk if I should get a personal trainer. Money wise I could afford 2 times a week only depending on the trainer. Also I’m more looking at long term and want to grow my glutes slowly over time. I’m pretty knowledgeable when it comes to nutrition, it’s just that having guidance and a personal workout plan would help me get started as well as boost my confidence and discipline to be consistent

Hey Jeff, Thankyou for the helpful video. The other vids I checked were also very valuable :). So...I am currently working as a freelance personal trainer in my local gym. I am thus responsible to find my clients. My current strategy is to introduce myself to members, talk to them about things like their fitness goals and then I offer a free session to get some advice about exercises, nutrition for their goals. I currently send them a list of questions to answer and then we plan the session and after the session we talk about how the session went and if they would be interested to take PT. What I want to know, is this a good strategy or would you do it differently? I really struggle with my sequence of events right now. Things like: Should I ask these people after the first encounter if they want to have a free session? Should I send a question form to them before this session? In your consultation, you ask if people have barriers and when they answer that question, you'll give them information how you'll help them overcome these barriers. Can I ask this question? The people I approach in this way are not necessarily looking to buy PT, because I approached them and they did not come to me... I hope that you see my thought process here, haha.. Could you maybe draw a 'timeline' for me? Like: first you talk to people, then you ask them if they want a session, then do the session etc. I hope you understand my question ;')...Thanks in advance!
@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation Жыл бұрын
I would personally rework this a little bit. So, the first step should be a face to face consultation. During that time, you’d go over all of the things I’m guessing you do in your question form-goals, history, barriers to success, etc. This should be a conversation where you both connect with the client, make it known you understand their goals and show them the value you may provide them. At this time, you’d also go through a detailed health history and required paperwork for training. At the same time as the consultation, or another time, you could offer them a sample session. You don’t have to do this but it’s certainly helpful. I usually do this as a shortened session just to give them a taste of what a session might look like. I very much explain that this is just a sample, their programming would be more specific to them should they sign up. At the end of the consultation/workout, you could then ask if they have any questions and if they’d be interested in coming back in and seeing packages/pricing. By this time, you should have a pretty good idea of whether or not someone is interested in signing up. Explain pricing if necessary and let them tell you what they want to do.

Would you charge on the initial consultation ? 2) If you had them try a session would you charge in this market , thanks . If so how much ?
@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation4 жыл бұрын
My consultation is always free. Even when I trained people in their homes I would still offer the consultation for free. Tbh it’s probably one of those things that would work either way, free or charged depending on how you frame it though. They would be charged for their next session for sure though. I would charge anywhere between $1.00 to $1.50 per minute for training in an affluent area. In really affluent areas you may even charge a bit more. I would also charge a little extra on top of that for a travel fee. Hope that helps! Thanks for the support!

@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation4 жыл бұрын
That would make sense for an affluent area where you’re traveling to the client. You’d be right around that $1.50 a minute plus travel fee. That’s assuming they’re averaging 12-13 sessions a month and you’re charging $1500 a month.

As far as marketing help with affluent clients goes, you definitely need to present yourself as high end and qualified. I would certainly make it known that you have all those years of experience. A professional website goes a long way too.

Hi Jeff, extremely helpful videos! Just want to ask when we write programs for clients. Do we send the clients the program that we have designed for them or do we just go through it with them without showing them? I know PT's that do send it and some that don't. I just started personal training and I am unsure. Hope to see your view on this :)

Hi there, I'm studying online for my PT exam (as I have no other financial option) and I am still confused about some things, for example: at which point do you talk about the nutrition part, motivation - do you do that at the screening or after the fitness tests when you do the goal setting (it makes more sense at the goals because we were taught the screening is about clearing them for exercise, but since they also a the general an lifestyle questionnaire there it confuses me a bit.) Also, how does the single-leg squat assessment compare to the OHS and when do you do the push/Pull assessment and single-leg squat? (I was taught you always do the OHS unless the client can't). What exactly does the V02 max number mean to you as a trainer a how does it influence how the person will be trained. Lastly, when you o screening you o the PARQ, General, Lifestyle and Medical Questions, but I am unsure what to do with the info - PARQ as far as I can tell identifies major signs and symptoms an you send them for clearance an the medical form can tell of further signs or symptoms, but what about the risk screening (HR, BP, BMI, WHR), your not gonna send the client for clearance for smoking or having a sedentary life (Do you just send them for the bigger risks eg high BP or HR - I mean what does it mean for me as a trainer if they have for example 3 risk factors?). Thank you for the videos so far. I find them very helpful in terms of the practical flow of things an the way to talk to clients.

Hopefully your studying is going well! I'm sure it is! -I talk about nutrition through the entire consultation. I talk about it most during short and long term goal setting and of course the full nutrition section of the consultation, which is about 2/3s of the way through the sit down portion of the process. -We talk goal setting and motivation through the entire consultation process. More of it specifically happens before the physical portion of the consultation, but goals should be talked about the entire time because they're seeing you and potentially paying you to help them achieve a goal. -I'm not sure I understand your question about the single leg squat and OHS. I have all of my clients, who can do an overhead squat, do it. I also have my clients due multiple different single leg movement screens as those are part of the functional movement screen that I use. These tests are done in the assessment after the consultation. There are multiple right ways to do all of this though. - VO2 max or maximal oxygen uptake will mean almost nothing to you as a trainer, unless you work in a laboratory. You wont have any accurate ways to test your clients VO2 max nor will they care about VO2 max. -In the United States you have to have your client fill out the PAR Q, Healthy History Questionnaire and the informed consent. If they say yes to anything on the PAR Q, you have to send them to a medical professional before doing a training program. As far the health history goes, if they present any heart, lung, or other dangerous potential symptoms/problems, they should consult with a doctor before beginning a training program. Good Questions! Let me know if you have any more! I'm glad that you're finding them helpful!

@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation Thank you! For me ot seemed like the single leg squat is like a more zoning down of the muscles and would be better than OHS but I understand now you do both. My main fear for the exam is that I might forget something, leave something out and fail. Thank you for all the help and info. Im gonna use your videos as refreshers and info in the future

You kind of have to find a balance between the two things. If they both have the same goal and similar physical capabilities then this is easy. If they don’t then it can be pretty hard. I’ll be releasing a video on this soon!

Ya you can turn anyone down if you don’t want to work with them. I’ve personally never done it but it’s always an option. In pretty much any job you’re going to have clients who are easy to work with and ones who aren’t. Training is certainly no different.
