Choosing the Right Tools for Training

It’s essential for trainers to understand that they cannot impose their preferred training methods on clients. While trainers often believe in certain tools, such as kettlebells, and see their benefits, client comfort and preference must come first. Some clients may have negative experiences with specific equipment, which can hinder their progress and willingness to engage in training. Therefore, flexibility and adaptability in selecting training tools are crucial for fostering a positive client experience and achieving effective results.
