Results probably the biggest. With money being second. However, I feel as if results are attained efforts will be taken to put up the money.

From my prespective, I would put money as the first reason, particularly when personal circumstances change such a job loss or other situations that suddenly require that resources being allocated for other purposes.
That's what I would do myself. If I were in a financial crunch, I would immediately look at all my expenses and eliminate all beyond the essentials. Personal training would be on the chopping block with others. It is not that it could not be re-instated later when things change for the better.

As the others have stated: results and money.
From a results stand point it could be both results achieved or a lack of having achieved results.
A third reason that I've seen a lot of recently is moving due to a job. With the economy being what it is, a lot of people have had to change jobs or more altogether to get a new job. The trainer they were seeing may not be close to their job or home any longer.

results and money are the deal breakers. Why would somebody want to pay for something if they aren't getting better results then they could get on their own?

Money, time, and results. I try and turn over my clients ASAP by getting them to their goals or forging a doable path for them to complete on their own. I feel that once (most) my clients are really in the swing of things its time to cut the leash and let them try and fly solo. Normally they keep the results coming on their own and this lets the cost of their training be more manageble without me having to formulate some kind of "special deal" (which almost always costs you money.)

I agree with Karin that money is the reason that many clients stop training. Money is oftentimes also viewed as the reason that many potential clients never START training as well. Second would be their "perceived" lack of time. I say "perceived" because I'm a firm believer in the fact that we all have 24-hours in our day and it's how we allocate those hours that matters most. We each FIND or MAKE time for things that we perceive as important to us. I've worked with very busy surgeons, or business owners who have MADE the time to train because of its importance to their health, while you have others who will find any reason or excuse NOT to have time for their own health.
So, in my opinion, the answer is money (first), time (second).
I hope that this helps.

Hello Curtis,
Goals accomplished! Is what I have experienced. However, a majority of my clients do re-revisit every 90 days to change their programming.
Sincerely,
Michael
