Answering The Question Why

I came across this blog post by Jocelyn Martin and felt that it speaks volumes. Enjoy!

There are so many ways to answer this three letter question. When I started in the sales business, I was instructed to ask this question at least four to five times in order to get the potential client’s real objection to purchasing the product.

As a trainer, I find this simple one word question to be a very important one to ask to get behind the real reason behind their fitness goals. Why that specific goal? Why that workout routine? Why that particular weight goal?Why?Why? Why?

I have found that most times, my clients often times give the answer that they think they are expected to give and then give the answer they want to give. I have found that after a few more whys, they then give the real answer; the truth behind the goal, that number.

In most cases, not only do clients need help with their workouts, but they also need help vocalizing the real reason behind their fitness goals, which, once realized, could be used as motivation during workouts. People should not feel ashamed to vocalize their goals. Vocalizing them makes them real. Makes them open to scrutiny. Makes them open to ridicule. Making you more likely to have them achieved.

Introducing ProGFit!

It has been a long time coming, but I have finally taken the big step and started ProGFit Personal Training.

I have been in the fitness industry for over ten years and have grown as a trainer to deliver a service that not only maximizes your potential but brings out the best in all of my clients’ capabilities.

When I train, I focus first on general mobility and finding where you stand in strength and endurance. I have found that the sooner that I find what motivates you, the sooner I can begin the journey to discovering the athletic inner voice that will drive you.

I have worked with ex-athletes, (soccer, basketball, football, and even figure skating) pregnant women, the un-motivated, even those who simply didn’t like working out.

Some additional qualities include:

                                                             ISSA Certified

                                                                   Experienced in Dynamic Exercise

                                                                   Body Mechanice

                                                                   Corrective Exercise/correction of imbalances through the body

                                                                   Core strengthening

                                                                   Group Class  

Many personal trainers are focused on getting X amount of fans because it's the "cool" thing to do.  I wish to earn X amount of fans through motivation and innovative exercise with a keen sense of when to inspire, advise, and educate.  All the while you are becoming close to making your fitness goals a reality.
