🏋️‍♀️💪 How to instruct any exercise. Use this 4-step acronym to include all the right details, for every exercise you teach your clients I - INTRODUCE the exercise: Include the name of the exercise and the muscles worked D - DEMONSTRATE the exercise: Show them the exercise, and be sure to show them from two angles so they can understand. E - EXPLAIN key teaching points for the exercise: Use a couple of clear teaching points that support your demonstration. External cues like "imagine you are sitting on a chair" are often easier to understand than complex internal cues like "hips back and down". A - ACTION. Get the client to start the exercise whilst ANALYSING and CORRECTING their form. This is also the point whereby yo can check intensity, reinforce teaching points and overdeliver as a coach.
