Fitness GYM

Actually this is my second career and neither of my jobs lived up to my childhood dream of racing car driver (it took me three attempts to pass my driving test so obviously it wasn't meant to be!).

Well my only goal is to make your gym reach the top... Having a good communication skill with clients will indeed increase the gym sales because explaining someone about something will do attract them.

Activity which involves short bursts of high intensity exertion, causing the body to demand more oxygen than it can take in. Examples include sprinting or lifting heavy weights.

Chest exercise performed on a bench, but can also be performed on a cable machine sitting upright.

Take one dumbbell in each hand, and extend your arms out to the sides. Perform a rep by lifting the weights up in each hand so they meet in the middle, keeping your arms straight, and slowly lowering back down to your sides.

Arm exercise which works the biceps, performed using dumbbells or a barbell. The weight is raised and lowered, bending at the arm and keeping the back straight.

Group of muscles (adductor brevis, adductor longus, pectineus, gracilis and adductor magnus) situated in the upper thigh. Hip adductor exercises work out this group.

I would be very approachable and likeable. I would always keep a smile on my face and approach clients where I see fit and engage in conversation.

Establishing rapport with a client is paramount to keeping them coming back. To prepare for this important question, review the fitness trainer materials you used when you obtained certification, so the basic tenets of client rapport are fresh in your mind. That includes taking time to learn the client's likes and dislikes and maintaining good communication, reminds the American Council on Exercise.

A series of exercises performed in a cyclical process, to develop endurance and strength. For instance, a participant may perform once set each of five different exercises (either ‘total body’ or focusing on one region of the body) then start again at the beginning once complete.

Term used in weight training to describe failing to keep perfect form when performing a rep, and having to use another body part to complete the rep.

An example might be not keeping your back completely straight when performing a bicep curl, or pushing your hands on your legs to complete a leg press.

Cheat reps might enable someone to lift a heavier weight or perform more reps than they would be able to if they weren’t ‘cheating’.

Muscles situated on the forward portion of the upper arm. Consists of the short and long head biceps brachii. Utilised in shoulder, elbow and forearm movements.

The term ‘t-shirt muscles’ is sometimes used to refer to the biceps (along with deltoids and pectoralis muscles), as these are particularly prominent when a short sleeve t-shirt is worn.

The practice of consciously consuming more calories than your body requires as part of a weight training programme in order to help gain muscle. For bodybuilders, it is often followed by a period of ‘cutting’, in which someone will consume fewer calories in order to lose fat mass and increase their lean mass percentage.

The term ‘clean bulk’ might be used to denote a calorie surplus using healthier foods (such as high quantities of lean meat or fish).

The term ‘dirty bulk’ might be used to describe bulking which involves any and all food, whether they’re healthy and nutrient rich or not.

Be honest here -- but also keep in mind that the employer might be trying to understand what you're passionate about and what you'll be well-suited to do at the facility. If the employer is looking for someone to do extensive weight training workouts with clients, for example, it might be a good idea to tell him that you enjoy weight training.

The muscle which drives the movement in an exercise, and is met by resisting torque from the antagonist muscle. The agonist muscle contracts (gets shorter), while the antagonist lengthens and helps to regulate the movement.

For instance, during a bicep curl, the bicep muscle is an agonist, while the tricep is an antagonist.

If the fitness center caters to people with special medical conditions or an aging population -- as many do -- you'll need to be well-versed in how to handle special circumstances. If you're aware of how to handle the medical condition the employer has mentioned, outline the steps you'd take to ensure the client can exercise safely, including using props or modifying the program, for example.

If you don't remember how to handle that particular situation, don't make something up. Tell the employer that you'd use your exercise science books and consult other trainers for guidance and that you'd be sure to gather all the necessary information before starting to train the client.

Bodyweight exercise performed with the help of a chair, stepper or bench. It works the tricep muscles, and is a modified version of a tricep dip.

Stand with your back to a chair, place your hands flat on it close to the edge, and place your legs out in front of you. Start with your arms fully extended, and perform a rep by lowering yourself down so that your elbows reach a 90 degree angle, then raising yourself up again.

Following a clean, the participant raises the barbell above their heard using a combined squat and military press movement and bending the knees (positioning one foot slightly to the rear behind them, and one in front of them).

First of all I will come talking to you in a friendly way like hey man wassup how are you tell me a bit about your training then I will be like what say if I train you and give you up some session to help you build your body.

I would first sit down with the client and have a conversation with them about their goals. I would then get them to fill in relevant forms e.g. Screening, health questionnaire and fitness testing and design the program on the information I have gathered.

Just do it! Work hard, learn what you need to and just get on with it. I wish I had straight away.
