In the fitness world we are starting to see a shift away from the traditional gym visits. The ones that you drive to before or after work, check in and say hi to the front desk staff. Then you go do your own thing for a period of time. When people go to the gym they expect to feel inspired, they expect the community, and they expect new and exciting ways in which they can work out.
However in reality, in more recent years, we are all becoming busier and busier. With having families, jobs, and a life outside the gym and fitness world time becomes precious. And we are also entering the gym and hitting a blank within our fitness journeys.
This is where the development of online training is becoming more and more popular and this is why the development of JSWFitness online training began. With an app containing many benefits to the busy fitness enthusiasts or the ones needing guidance and motivation online training could change your world.
Below I have written about some of the key reasons why JSWfitness online training could be just for you:
1. Poor/ No program design
This is, probably, the most common mistakes I see in training. Most exercisers just go into the gym and just move from one machine/ exercise to another with no real plan or any real idea of what is best for them and their goals. Or get stuck on how exercises can be adapted to be carried out at home.
With JSWFitness online training all this guesswork is taken away. You will receive a personalised program that is specifically designed around your goals, fitness levels, training history and any injuries you have, to help reach your desired goals in the most effective and efficient way possible. No more wasted hours in the gym not seeing the results you want!
Programs are sent directly to your phone or tablet through the JSWFitness App, so they can be viewed by yourself anytime, anywhere! You don’t need to be a gym member to make use of JSWFitness online training, programs can be done at home, in a small home gym, inside space or outside! The program will be tailored towards you!
2. Poor Exercise selection
This is another common mistake I see regularly; a lot of people who train will try to shoehorn in exercises they think they should be doing without proper knowledge or the right level of mobility to perform it effectively.
With JSWFitness online training you will learn the proper exercise progressions and have only exercises included within your programs that suit your body, training history, fitness level, so that you can perform the exercises safely and effectively. As part of the app you will see vidoes of the exercises and have the ability to record yourself completing the exercises.
3. Lack of recording/ tracking
Again, a very common mistake within the fitness world and follows on from point 1. Without recording what you have done (weight lifted, number of reps, sets, level of effort, etc) how can you know how you are improving and without improvement you end up plateauing very quickly and never reaching your goals. Read my blog post on *progressive overload* for more information.
With JSWFitness online training there is no excuse for not recording your session. The JSWFitness App allows you to see your program, record how you got on (record reps, weight, sets completed) anywhere, anytime and allows me to check how you got on too.
Lack of tracking also effects nutrition too. A large percentage of people overestimate what they eat, how much they eat (portion sizes) and the number of calories they consume. As part of the silver, gold and platinum online packages you have the ability to integrate ‘My FitnessPal’ with the JSWFitness App allowing you to keep track of your food intake and for me to give advice on how best to improve your diet to reach your desired goals.
4. Poor exercise technique
This links with point 2, poor technique whilst training is one sure way of getting yourself injured and injury means a pause on your journey and pushing your goals further away.
With JSWFitness online training & using the app you can see and read how the exercise should be completed and even better than that you can record yourself completing the exercise directly to the app. From here I can see your technique and advice on any changes/ how to complete it more effectively.
5. Lack of motivation
This often comes with a combination of the points above and normally happens when you are not seeing the results you are expecting or wanting.
With JSWFitness online training you will receive regular check-ins to see how you are getting on, a private Facebook group to share your achievements and ask any questions you wish and email support to help motivate, support and ensure you reach your goals.
