The two major types of clients and how to train them
This thread is about a revelation that occured to me. It is the two major types of clients and how to train them, in a nutshell.
[u]Group 1[/u]: The Performance Oriented Crowd
Includes Pro Athletes, aspiring athletes, or dedicated recreational trainees
[b]How to train them in a nutshell:
"Just get em' strong"[/b]
[u]Group 2[/u]: The Health/Aesthetics/No-clue-what-they-want crowd (i.e. everyone who doesn't fall into group 1)
Includes housewives, coach potatoes, the terminally obese, weekend warriors, 99.8% of women, seniors, and all the types of people who usually buy personal training.
[b]How to train them in a nutshell:
"Just get em' lean and ripped"[/b]
You train the first group like powerlifters and the second group like bodybuilders.
That is all you have to do to be a successful trainer. This is my revelation.
