“It’s very important for me to break down what the individual
wants versus what they might need. Through observation
and communication I am able to develop a program that is
effective and efficient – it’s an evolving process.
There is a special uniqueness to each individual and I
want to influence his or her activities outside the
facility as well. When people explain to me they
strained a muscle bending over to pick up a pencil, then
I know their functional strength needs development”.
I make a point of getting to know my clients well, so I
can anticipate what will make them succeed or not.
Helping my clients discover their range of abilities and
building their training strength translates into helping
them build muscle and perform everyday tasks with more
ease”.
If the client feels ownership of the program, then coming
to work with me is more than just having an
appointment. It represents their having incorporated
changes into their lifestyle, from what they eat to how
they exercise. When this happens they express pride in
the changes they’ve made or, better still, tell me I
need to add some weight to the machine. It’s not about
pounds, it’s about how they feel.”
