Sample interview questions
I would start with a conversation to understand their current activity level, any health concerns, and their specific goals. Then I might conduct simple fitness tests like bodyweight squats or a timed walk to gauge baseline fitness, and use a questionnaire to track progress.
I would remind them of their initial goals and celebrate small victories. I might also adjust the training plan to make it more enjoyable or set short-term milestones. Positive reinforcement and being a supportive listener are key.
I once helped a friend start a daily walking routine. We started with 10 minutes a day, gradually increasing. I used a habit tracker and checked in daily for accountability. After a month, it became a natural part of their day.
I would focus on bodyweight exercises like squats, lunges, push-ups, and planks. I could also use household items like water bottles as weights. For space, I'd design a circuit that uses a small area efficiently.
I would demonstrate the exercise slowly, then guide them through it with verbal cues and corrections. I might use mirrors or video feedback. Emphasis on form over intensity to prevent injury.
