Delivering The Perfect Gym Session | Ep 5

Little Gym, Big Heart with Devin Gage

“The secret to delivering the perfect training session in this phase is to tell them what they need to hear while giving them what they need.”

Welcome to the Little Gym, Big Heart podcast! Today, Devin Gage highlights a three-phase process to ensure a perfect training session: The Engage Phase, Training Phase, and Disengage Phase. The notion of 'pattern interrupt' which involves snapping clients out of their existing routine or state of mind, and engaging them into an intentional training mindset, is discussed under the Engage Phase. Different micro-pattern-interrupt techniques such as abrupt language, humor, and unique interactions are explored, alongside ways to incorporate environmental factors like varying the session structure. The Training Phase touches on agility and specificity in coaching based on clients' skill level, goals, and current phase in their workout program.
