Problem
Clients often express fairly general exercise related goals such as wanting to get in better shape or lose some weight. You as the personal trainer should help clients define goals in more specific and measurable terms so that progress can be evaluated. Effective goals are commonly said to be SMART goals, which means they are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time bound.
For the case study, you have a new client that came to you with a goal of losing a few pounds and having more energy to play with their grandchildren throughout the day. In length and explanation how might you help your client structure her goals in a way that best facilitates her long term success by using the SMART goals principal?
The case should include at least one credible journal entry.
