The Challenge
The specific skill set of gym floor-based small group training, which sits between personal training and class instruction, continues to grow in demand. Many instructors and trainers currently have the opportunity to develop their communication and interaction capabilities in this area.
The Solution
Excelsior was brought in help build the team’s confidence and capabilities in the design and implementation of small-group training. In addition, a particular focus was placed on utilising specific exercises and how to execute various barbell exercises.
The Result
The team’s overall confidence, specifically in teaching new movements and then coaching them, was significantly lifted. The instructors are better trained in programming sessions/workouts, especially when using barbells.
“It was a pleasure to work with Andy; in fact, we invited him back within the month to continue working with our staff and on all occasions the feedback has been great. Would highly recommend Andy and the Excelsior team and look forward to working with them in the future.”
