12 Week Training Program for Personal Training
This is a detailed 12 weeks training program for Steve Rogers who is a 27 years male who is a avid runner and has been quite slim his whole life. He runs moderate to long distances three to four days per week and running is the only physical activity he engages himself in. he has never been interested in resistance training because it is not his strong suit. The main thing when starting a therapy session with a new client is to build a strong positive relationship. Positive relationship is achieved through good communication with the client, interactions at the personal level and a sincere concern for the achievement of the client’s personal goas. It is vey important for the therapist to know the health history of the client well, the current health status and the level of fitness, and their future health goals. Fitness trainers have a professional responsibility to the clients and so the clients must take the sessions serious. The therapist’s main goal should be to help the client to achieve their health goals successfully and after that, lead a healthy and knowledgeable life style.
The first step that will be taken to bring Steve into a healthy lifestyle and therapy session will be conducting a small interview at the beginning of the session. In this meeting, we will talk with Steve about the activities that will be happening in the 12-week period, get a chance to know each other better and develop a good rapport. In the first meeting, Steve will read and sign the Informed Consent Form and after the signing, I will read his Health History Questionnaire. In that period, we will also review his medical history again, encourage Steve to tell me if he has any concerns and from the concerns, I will decide whether to take any medical screening sessions will be necessary. I will also measure and record some basic data which will be important in the therapy like his resting heart rate, body fat percentage, weight, and his height. We will also talk about his personal fitness goals, the methods he should expect me to use in evaluating and assessing his progress, my personal philosophy that guides me in training and major ISSA training principles. We will also look at his current diet habits and decide the changes he needs to make. I will inform him that he needs to take a 3-day report of the diet he has currently shifted to, so that I can use it for necessary nutritional assessment. Lastly, we will talk about the necessity of keeping himself while exercising, the importance if always communicating in case of any problem and intensity (HR vs RPE scale). The first meeting will also be a chance for me to show Steve around the gym and teach him about the equipment mainly used. In the process of touring Steve in the gym and throughout the whole interview process, I will try to gauge the level of knowledge Steve has about the gym.
