Participants were briefed on their professional role as a gym instructor as well as their career advancement in the industry. Our facilitators shared the importance of verbal vs. non-verbal communication through effective meet & greet session as well as how to provide corrective feedback to members on floor. During the health & fitness assessment module, participants were told ways they can ensure safety of members by understanding common medical conditions and when to make medical referral. Some gyms require their gym instructors to perform basic fitness testing so the participants were taught on how to perform body composition tests, step test, push-up test, partial curl-up test and sit & reach test.
Participants were shown by Jerrican the proper technique.
Participants were briefed on latest general exercise guidelines (2010) from American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) which can help them make general exercise recommendations to apparently healthy members. The highlight of the programme was learning how to safe and effectively operate cardiovascular and strength machines or exercises as well as how to help members choose the most suitable machine/exercise. Before the test, participants had great discussions on how to make industry acceptable recommendations if a member would to ask them on how to lose weight or muscle up.
