with small group training, 3-6 clients once a week, do you give them a copy of the workout
I have a small group of clients that I meet with once a week. They are all mom’s that like small group training for the social interaction, as well as the lower cost. They all have the same obvious goal of losing weight and getting back in shape after having kids. Because they are only able to meet once a week, would you suggest giving them a copy of the workout I put them thru so that they can perform the workout at home during the week?
I think this is up to you!
I consider how well they perform when we are together. If the group is advancing well together I sometimes offer them modified take home w/o’s.
I only do modified as most will not observe the stringent techniques I require when they are present on session.
I want my people to advance! I don’t want to be their crutch, keeping their training dollars flowing while they receive minimal benefit. Call me crazy but, I want them to advance and blow away the program’s I give them to speed their TOTAL advancement.
My thought is; they will remember who helped them, they will communicate this fact to whoever is giving them a complement, they are MY WALKING BILLBOARDS! IF THEY DON’T LOOK GOOD, I DON’T either.
If this is something you decide to do. Center the “take home” w/o around core strengthening, some isometric’s. I t will definitely get them in tune with self and make them more aware of personal limitations while offering them info to pass by you on the next visit.
B WELL…
PEACE
