As a Georgetown fitness boot camp trainer, it's important that you remember a couple of principles. Georgetown fitness boot camp training involves you, the trainer, focusing on your client and having him or her get the best results possible. However, a lot of trainers make mistakes, which is that they put all the responsibility for success or failure on the client. In fact, that's wrong. Chances are, with a Georgetown fitness boot camp client, success has a lot to do with you -- and so does failure.
Let's take a look at some principles a Georgetown fitness boot camp trainer should always keep in mind when it comes to helping clients succeed.
It's YOUR responsibility to help a client get good results.
If your client doesn't make progress, it's really easy to blame your client for being lazy. However, take a look at your own behavior. Are you really a good "coach"? Is your advice truly sound? Why isn't your client following your advice? It's really easy to say that your client IS not following your advice because he or she is simply "lazy," but it may instead be that your advice is completely wrong for that client. Maybe it just doesn't get results and is therefore worthless, or maybe it's unrealistic, which is just as bad as useless advice.
Design a program for good results.
Don't just throw cookie-cutter advice at your client at a Georgetown fitness boot camp and expect it to work. If you want results, design them. That is, set your client up for success. Treat workout programs like a recipe. Customize each "recipe" to each client. Don't just "work out" mindlessly and expect to get results. Plan everything.
Efficiency counts, too
Let's face it; most of us don't have three hours a day to work out -- heck, it's tough finding just one hour a day to work out. So, design a program that's really going to get results but be efficient. That takes careful planning (see above), and it's going to require some motivation to get your client going, too, because that's pretty intense. However, it's also going to produce results, because once you client sees that he or she can really work out (and really be done) in about 45 minutes, that increases motivation.
Write everything down
In other words, print programs out on paper. You and your client should sit down together and plan out your "plan of attack," and then commit it to paper. Putting things on paper increases accountability, both for you and the client.
The program needs to be sustainable
In other words, that workout you design has to be something you client can do long term, and can actually live with. Change out exercises to avoid burnout and minimize risk of injury, too. Just as importantly, though, any weight-loss/exercise program has to be based upon "enough," not deprivation. So simple "eat less and exercise more" advice is not going to work long term. Instead, work out a plan where the client WON'T be hungry physically and won't feel deprived, but will feel energized by both the eating plan and the exercise plan set up through the Georgetown fitness boot camp.
Final result: Put your client in charge
At the end of all of this, your client should be the one in charge of getting results on his or her own. You can be a coach, motivator, a teacher, and so on. However, the plan has to work such that ultimately, the client takes over and takes charge, and becomes empowered. That's the most important end result of a Georgetown fitness boot camp success.
