Purpose•Demonstrate how behavior and movement can impact the enjoyment of a Kinesis One training session

Kinesis

• Movement

Movement

• Enhanced by Full Gravity Technology

Placards Please…• Here is what members get on their own…

Questions

• “Does everyone do the same exercises?”• “With all of that capability, where do I

begin?”• “How do I know which exercises to use?”

Answer

• “You must know the person you are working with.”

• 2 key behavioral components to ‘knowing the user’:• Aspirations• Preferred style of training

Aspirations

• The person’s motivation behind their goal

• Goal-based training produces a workout

• Aspiration-based training produces a personalized movement experience

Aspirations Research

• IULM University in Milan• 10,000 fitness members• 3 countries

• Italy, Netherlands, UK

• 90 questions about their personality and lifestyle

• Aspirations fit into 6 core categories

6 Core Categories

Aspiration & Movement

• SHAPE • Client:

• Highly results-oriented

• Trainer• Show a high level of interest in the individual’s

training results• Emphasize the well-being and enjoyment benefits

of exercise• Intensive coaching and frequent assessments

Style of Training• Aspirations are the “WHY” a person

exercises…

• The “HOW” a person wants to exercise is their Style of training• Based on their personality and behavior

Your Style is…

• I prefer:

• Challenge or Structure

• Routine or Variety

• Practical or Adventurous

Styles

• 3 Styles• Traditional• Progressive• Hybrid

Traditional

• Safe and controlled environment

• Known, common and simple movements• linear • body part specific• uni-planar • fixed path of motion with

more external support

Progressive

• Freedom of motion and challenge• Variety and complexity of

movement• 3-dimensional• movement-based • total body • multi-planar• User defined path of motion • minimal external support

Hybrid

• A combination of Traditional and Progressive

Map it to the Member

• 2 clients• Aspiration – SHAPE

Aspirations, Styles & Movement

• Client 1: • Style = Traditional

• Basic, common exercises in the stable position plus some cardio training on a treadmill or stationary bike

Aspirations, Styles & Movement

• Client 2:• Style = Progressive

• Dynamic, total-body movement patterns from a standing position

• Games, drills• Burpees, agility

drills, etc.

Recap…

• Aspiration provides you with “WHY” they are exercising

• Style will tell you “HOW” they want their training to look and feel

• Together they:• Personalize the movement experience• Increase enjoyment and compliance• Promote renewals, resigns and revenue

The Dilemma• Kinesis Full Gravity Technology allows us

to have an endless variety of exercises

• So many choices can be scary

• Would you like a movement development system?
