How to tell a client no
I feel like a client is taking advantage of me. She only signed up for a limited number of sessions and doesn’t want to continue because she feels she doesn’t come often enough to gain benefit. Yet, she wants me to give her a list of all of the exercises I’ve done with her and provide a second routine. I want to tell her no in a way that will maintain a relationship with her even though she doesn’t want any more personal training. Any suggested language?
This happens all the time. I train at a Y as well as on my own. When I am at the Y people just don’t have the money to see me on a long term basis. While it is nice(understatement) to make money, this is not the reason that I do this as a job. I try to teach clients how to create their own workout and supply them with a list of exercises broken down to body part category, ie. upper body, lower body, etc. I am also open to any future questions if they need help. It’s just right.
