Breaking the Mould! - Article by Lee Scott of Personal Training UK

The days of being run into the ground and not being able to make it down the stairs after an hour of Personal Training are quickly changing. Now we are beginning to see a more calculated approach to personal training, both from the customer and the trainer.

You the customer are more in tune with your personal requirements than ever before, due to television, internet, magazines and celebrities. You are now able to go to your trainer and ask for Madonna’s arms, J-Lo’s butt or Britney’s abs.

We as the trainers have a clear understanding of both the result and how to create it. The science of exercise and the physiological developments allow us to sculpt the areas required, rather than force into shape.

This I feel is a major change for us all, as we are able to work more specifically on weak areas rather than just a general overview.

For instance we at Personal Training UK carry out a number of detailed pre training tests to establish with you, the client, exactly what areas need focus.

Pre test as follows:-

• 15-20 min chat regarding the clients goals.
• Our initial feedback on the above, and areas we feel need addressing.
• Bodystat Test if necessary to confirm detailed internal areas of improvement i.e. body fat and lean tissue ratio.
• Postural Analysis Test to determine tight and weak muscle in accordance to postural distortion of the body, i.e. forward shoulders or weak core muscles causing lower back pain.
• Cardio Testing to determine basic level of cardio fitness and understanding of cardio training elements.
• Then having gathered all this information, sit down with the client to discuss the order and approach to the training.

Our more specific and sports medical approach allows us then to deliver the difference. Unlike some personal trainers we start by using the National Academy of Sports Medicine’s OPT model of training, which stands for the Optimum Performance Training Pyramid.

This ensures that for all our clients they receive detailed and specific training for their needs. Each section takes between 4 -8 weeks depending on the client.

The following areas are included:-

• Corrective Training
• Stability Training
• Strength Training
• Power Training

After we have worked our way through these areas with you, you will have achieved your goals in a quick but effective manner.

If you have any questions or are in need of any advice please contact Lee Scott on 07900 035979 or alternatively email www.personaltraininguk.net.
