Great personal training session today in Peterborough! Made some real progress with clients goals and motivation seems to be on the increase. Just shows the importance of setting small goals to start with really does work!
We started with a warm up then looked to build on the previous sessions time on a treadmill, working within an aerobic zone, we tired to increase time to ten inutes and 30 seconds rather than just a straight ten minutes. With success, both myself and the client were extremely hapy with this achievement and the motivation continued through out the session. Well Done!
Next up we looked at resistance work aimed at muscluar endurance. Looking at problem areas such as the back of the arms and legs. Keeping it light and our form to a high standard, the client felt the benfits straight away and had really motivated her to continue with body weight exercises between sessions! We discussed a body weight circuit that could be completed at home and everthing seems on the up.
This is our third session and the measurements we took at the start of our training already look like a distant memory!
The client has stuck to the little changes we have made to their diet and we discussed future changes such as reducing half a sugar in their tea to none, adding a protein to carb based foods to help reduce blood sugar levels, and increasing their water intake by drinking two extra cups. Making small changes seems to be working, if we made too many drastic changes then the client would find this harder and harder to stick to. Thats why crash diets seldom work, if we are all truthful everyone has tried this type of diet and they are so difficul sticking toot! Eventually you just slip back into old habits, I know in the past I have!
We finsihed with some core work such as plank for sets of 30 seconds and used the fit ball for sit ups and some balancing exercises, even had time for a dead bug! What a session, really pleased with the clients progress and has put a real smile on my face!
