As a trainer who cares you'll want to be friends with your clients, you'll want them to be happy, and, in times of them not being happy, you'll often struggle with the balance of pushing them as a trainer needs to, but, also comforting them as a friend would do.  How do we find the balance between being a friend and a trainer?

How many times have you intended to do something but when the time came... you "just didn't feel like it"?  Often in life the things we know we should do, the things we know would be good for us if we did them, aren't things we often "feel like" doing because they'll take effort and require us to do things different than our normal ways.  Our feelings towards those types of things are NOT what we should use as determining whether or not we do them... just because we don't "feel like it" shouldn't be a determining factor.  If we know they're good for us, whether we feel like it or not, we should just go ahead and do them!

Feeling stressed out but you know you need to workout... or, you're not sure if you even should???  In today's podcast we discuss how to adjust your training based on your stress levels.  What's most important, how to modify if you don't feel mentally safe, and what are quick and easy structures we can use to be efficient and effective.
