RE: The Attraction of Forcing Others

in #fitness7 years ago

I Have and Do Have the Same Situations Where Clients Have No Scale Successes and are Essentially Eating Their Workouts. Some Times They Like the 'Status Symbol' of Having a Personal Trainer, Perhaps They Feel Better About Food Knowing That They've Worked Out and In Their Minds 'Earned it' ? It's Too Exhausting if You Get Yourself Emotionally Attached to Reaching Someone Elses Goals if They aren't Willing to Put in the Work Behind the Scenes.

I get called backwards a lot. It's tough when they don't meet us half way. Frustrating when the most effort being put in is from their wallets.

I encounter that in physical therapy a lot too. Diff profession But similar in some ways. Give them an exercise program, they don't do it. Yet they claim they want to "get better "

I think it's overwhelming for some. Then again preventable health conditions are pretty overwhelming as well.
