How Often Do You Perform Assessments?
Once in the beginning.
An assessment should be a comprehensive fitness test that gives you a better understanding of your client’s fitness level, instead of a generic list that must be checked off as a part of the routine.
Remember that personal training is not a profession that you clock in and out- most clients prefer a professional who cares about their fitness journey. As the time goes by, the results kick in, and your relationship loses its formalities, you’ll become in tune with their needs.
Keeping track of their progress is always a good idea, but you shouldn’t charge them and actually go through a full-blown assessment. You should not only be aware of their abilities and limits, but also know the rate of their progression.
You’ll learn as you get more experienced.
