Why is exercise so important.   Exercise Professionals use the phrase, "exercise is medicine."  If it is medicine, how are we dosing it? More importantly, why are still focused on arbitrary exercises, sets, and rep schemes instead of individually dosed challenges? Properly dosed challenges may be the difference between a client feeling great, or ending the session early.   This is the dawn of the modality of exercise being used as force diagnostics.   Instead of making claims to what is happening, this episode is about observing and documenting.  Then asking what the client perceives.   This, along with establishing baselines, build the direction of where to intervene or not with any client.  Enjoy the episode.

Join us as we chat with Francis Neric, Associate Vice President for Certification and Credentialing at the American College of Sport Medicine and President of the Coalition for the Registry of Exercise Professionals (CREP).

Was your schedule full when you opened your Personal Training Practice?   Did you have a waiting list?  Do you still have waiting list? Do you wish you had a wait list?   So many Exercise Professionals open their practice only to wait for people to come.   How is that working out for you?   Tell me if this sounds familiar.   Not enough clients?  Take more exercise certifications to learn to be the best trainer in your area. Do you think your potential client cares what certifications you have? I would say less than 1% do.   They only care if you can solve their problems.    This is exactly what Brandon Green has spent the past decade focusing on.     Brandon is the creator of Fitness Pro Mentors.  A system dedicated to filling your schedule and sustaining your Personal Training business.     We talk about the reason Fitness Pro Mentors was created, and were the in-person exercise process is evolving.  Are you ready to evolve with it?   Brandon is a gym owner, trainer and instructor for various organizations.  He is a wealth of biomechanical and physiological knowledge.  Now, he gets to apply that knowledge into client-centric results because he has clients.  Brandon has also built a team of trainers for his gym, Strata Internal Performance, in New Market Ontario CA.     We are fortunate that he shares some experiences and wisdom with us in this episode.   Check out all the highly useful masterclasses on his Facebook group that will help you start filling your schedule right now.     Brandon Green Links: Fitness Pro Mentors Facebook Group Strata Internal Performance

Where can I do less reps? [Might not be what you're thinking] We're on a mission to help one million people RISE by 2030 - join the movement at www.myrise.co.uk We've talked a lot recently about ‘reps'. Not of the exercise type (although they are cool too). But just about getting the repetitions in at stuff we want to get better at. Getting the reps in at booking sessions. Getting the reps in at turning up for those booked sessions. Getting the reps in at making better food choices. Getting the reps in at things that might help with our sleep. Or our stress levels and mood. Realising that we start by being pretty rubbish at anything. And practice ourselves onto mediocre, through to ok and, maybe, eventually, pretty good. All through reps. Just doing some of it, even if we don't feel like it. And getting a little better at it each time. More reps can be the answer. But so can less reps. Where in our lives would we benefit from getting less reps in? Some might seem obvious? Less reps of snacking, maybe? Less reps of drinking alcohol, perhaps? Less reps of those extra few hours binge watching that means we don't get enough sleep? Maybe we keep those reps in and get less somewhere else? Still snack, but get less reps of breakfast in? Still watch or favourite programmes but do less reps of something else so that starts and ends earlier? Still have a drink (or several) but less reps of calorie intake elsewhere to ‘balance the books'. Where can you get less reps in? Much love, Jon ‘Register of Exercise Professionals' Hall

Living, breathing, and communicating the components of exercise is Tom Purvis’s obsession. Tom Purvis is the owner of the Resistance Training Specialist (RTS) & ExerciseProfessional.com. His attention to detail on every component of the exercise experience, and continuum is paving the way to a completely different conversation about exercise. That conversation, is one of taking exercise out of commoditization and into a moment by moment experience. Understanding the mechanics, tools, and human dynamics can make all the difference in training the majority of the population. (the majority of exercisers walk into gyms or programs with prior injuries or medical conditions.) This conversation goes deep into the history of exercise, and application to differentiate yourself in a flooded exercise market. Tom specializes in mentoring and educating Exercise Professionals. Exercise, dosed correctly, can change lives. That is not done by chance. Enjoy. See what Tom is up to.

Reed Handley is a PhD student and Stacy Fritz is a professor and director of research at the University of South Carolina. Their focus is promoting physical activity for people with disabilities. As part of the curriculum, U of SC DPT students carry out research projects.

Listen To Episode 009 As Graham Uncovers Why 72% of clients are asking for advice and feedback from activity trackers  Why the exercise professional is moving into health coaching space to manage large groups Group Exercise Programming: Growing diversity and opportunities in the space Program offerings around the health coaching space   Understanding the programmatic based delivery models for personal training vs. session-based delivery model What national programs are moving health progress forward by blending the activity data and prevention programs with and without government reimbursement Why programmatic based delivery service models reach more members than session based delivery models (3-5%) How the perception of the public health community about the fitness professional is now changing Community health: How new wearable activity technology is being used to geo-target for ROI in infrastructures for walkable communities Health literacy: Do average people know if they are or are not meeting activity guidelines? Correlations between physical activity and disease in affluent countries Life insurance: How will this industry give discounts for activity tracked through wearables?

How the YMCA’s are a core portion of the delivery for the CDC’s diabetes prevention program, which was just approved for reimbursement through medicare/medicaid (to the resistance of big pharma)  Graham's featured contribution in the 2017 FIT-C Tech Trends Report Top 3 Takeaways From The Show The data is showing from ACE and other Industry reports that health coaching is emerging in our space where the non-member programs are becoming a lot more common. People are moving from early adopters and into the next group of facilities that want to build on the success that their peers have had. In 2017, technology and devices are not the competition for the fitness professional, they are a tool that can be leveraged to help manage a larger client base, stay in contact with clients, and to manage a group of individuals towards better health. The perception of the public health community about the role of fitness professionals is now changing via the use of accreditation and new technology that taps into the potential of aggregate data that can be used to increase population health. Power Quotes From Graham "Technology devices are not competition for the exercise professional, they are a tool that can be leveraged to help manage a larger client base, stay in contact with clients, and to manage a group of individuals towards better health." - Graham Melstrand on the Fitness + Technology Podcast "We believe that health coaching is rapidly emerging in the health and fitness space while the non-member programs are becoming a lot more common.
