Coaching to Maximize Client Results : For Personal Trainers

Nutrition and Exercise are Not Enough

Use Coaching to Address Mindset and Improve Client Results with Self-Belief, Self-Motivation, Choice, Clarify, Commitment, Awareness, Responsibility and Action

Why should a Personal Trainer incorporate basic coaching strategies into his or her practice? Let’s think about a very common scenario – one that I have seen frequently in my own practice. 

You begin  working with a new client. The client is excited for the first couple of weeks and gives 100%. He does all of his “homework” between sessions and shows up on time for your scheduled meetings. During week 3, the client starts to lose enthusiasm. He cancels his session saying he has to work late. He later admits he went to happy hour with some  friends after work and slipped into his “old habits”. 

When he gets on  the scale at the end of week 3, he has gained back 2 of the 4 pounds he  lost in the first 2 weeks. He is devastated and says, “Here we go again.” What does he mean? How will you help the client get back on track and address those habits and negative thinking? 

As Personal Trainers, we use proven nutrition and fitness techniques, but oftentimes, they are not enough. As you learn the coaching strategies taught in this course, you can begin to think about the opportunities to expand your existing  practice and increase the success of your clients. This course is designed specifically for Personal Trainers to improve client results by focusing on the power of the mind and helping our clients to build awareness about their own self-limiting beliefs about their abilities. 

According to the International Coach Federation website (the main accrediting and credentialing body for coaches), 99% of clients are satisfied with the overall experience of coaching and 96% of clients would repeat the process. In this course you will learn the missing ingredient that has been holding your clients back from reaching their full potential.
