Kinesis Specialty Workshop:
Kinesis Bootcamp & Kinesis Corrective Exercise
Purpose• Learn the fundamentals of implementing
the goals and likes of these populations into a workout, and learn how to translate this knowledge into an effective workout that is suitable for every client.
Movement• Enhanced by Full Gravity Technology
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
6 Core Categories
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
• Relaxing or Adventurous
Styles
• 3 Styles• Traditional• Progressive• Hybrid
Map it to the Member
• 2 clients• Aspiration – SHAPE
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
How do we program in a boot camp setting?
-Match the exercise with the aspiration and style.
-Organize the group prior to movement.
Managing a Group…
How do we coach their style and engage
everyone?
The Dilemma• Kinesis Full Gravity Technology allows us
to have an endless variety of exercises
• So many choices can be scary when programming for a group.
