1. A Personal Trainer Diary 2
A Personal Trainer Diary 2, Focus
Meet Jim. He is 34 and I got to know him 5 weeks ago. He became a
member in our fitness club because he wanted to shed some weight. When
I looked at his body, I didn't find him over weight but he showed me his
lower abdominal and upper hips have shaped into a tube like form.
He said that although he is active, he's been packing the fat only in that
area. He felt whatever he ate, packing up right into that tube. Jim was tall,
slim built with no muscle pack. He looked balance except in his middle
body.
In his first consulting session to discover his goal, he mentioned he needed
a quick weight loss program. He said he read many articles on loss diet
and fast weight loss. At one point he took some weight loss supplement,
which in his scenario, caused fatigue and weakness. Right away, I
informed him of his wrong approach. One of the most important step
when deciding to start working on your body is to know what you need to
change and have a focus.
As a professional personal trainer, I take notes when i consult with my
2. client and give them a notepad to answer some important questions.
I have decided a change and joined a fitness program for:
- Weight loss
- Building muscle and balance the shape of my body
- Focus and work on certain part of my body
- To gain weight
These are few examples of what clients can put their focus on.
In Jim's case, I knew he was in the wrong path to lose fat in his lower abs.
Lets talk about the fact that each body's functionality is different and need
different style of diet, work out and weigh loss exercise. Jim only had fat
in his lower abs and taking a rapid weight loss program was wrong for him.
His only remedy was working out to build lost muscles in that area instead
of any supplement or diet list. He had only spot of fat in certain area which
spot reduction is only possible with liposuction. But, the best way of
reducing the spot fat is by certain effective workout exercised.
This exercise not only reduces the fat in that certain area, but also helps
build extra muscles in other areas and keep the overall balance. When we
discussed this option, it was like a weight off his shoulder. I gave him a list
of proper exercise and provided him with his daily program including his
diet routine.
Result:
It has almost been 5 weeks and his lower abs is almost flat and as a matter
fact, he has built some extra muscle packs in his upper abdominal. Of
course we'll not going to stop there as I am working fully with Jim to grow
his strength and to find those lost muscles in every part of his body.
Here I'm sharing 2 exercises I recommend Jim to lose the lower abdominal
fat. Lie down on a Yoga mattress and gather up your knees. With your
hands straightforward along with your hips, do crunches. Do this in
periods of 10.
3. To follow, lie down straight and place your hands right by your body on the
floor tightened on your sides. Now, keeping your knees fully straight, lift
your legs up 90 degrees and take them down again but don't place them on
the mattress. Repeat this in period of 10 and go back to the first exercise.
Very important hint: breath from your nose.
