How effective are you at motivating your personal trainer clients?
The key to being a successful personal trainer is the ability to motivate your clients to meet their fitness targets and keep them coming back to your sessions.
It’s your job to help your clients overcome fatigue and moments of pure laziness and encourage them to change their habits and continue training towards their own betterment.
So, here are our top 5 motivational tips to help you inspire your personal trainer clients.
1. Set Challenges & Goals – Goals help us stay on track, they give your clients something to work towards and more importantly, something to celebrate when they achieve it. If your client is feeling defeated, reminding them how close they are to their goal can make all the difference! Challenges are also a great way to motivate clients, while also showing them that training doesn’t always have to take place in the gym. Why not consider registering your client for a mud run, distance event or race? You might bring out a competitive side you haven’t seen before!
2. Monitor Progress – There’s little point setting goals if you’re not going to track them. Surprising your personal trainer clients by revealing the improvements they’ve made can help them to see exactly how their hard work is paying off and encourage them to keep at it.
