From Level 3 Knowledge To Real-World Coaching
Since 2012, Parallel Coaching has helped thousands of people gain their fitness qualifications and take their first steps into the industry.
And over the years, we’ve noticed something.
Getting qualified is one thing.
Feeling confident enough to actually coach someone is another.
You can understand anatomy. You can answer your coursework questions. You can learn the principles of programme design.
But then a real client sits in front of you...
What do you ask them?
What should you assess?
How do you turn their goals into a programme?
Which exercises and training systems should you choose?
How do you progress them over the next 4, 8 or 12 weeks?
And perhaps the biggest question of all...
“How do I know I've got this right?”
We’ve worked with trainee, newly qualified and experienced Fitness Professionals who have asked these exact questions.
That’s why we created FIT-PROGRESSIONS.
It takes you through the complete client journey, giving you a clear framework for putting your knowledge into practice.
You'll work through real-world scenarios and practical examples covering consultation, assessment and testing, goal setting, behaviour change, programme design, training systems, progression, periodisation and nutrition.
You'll learn how to take a client from “This is what I want to achieve” to a structured 4–12 week programme designed around their individual goal.
Along the way, you'll learn how to make decisions about exercise selection, sets, reps, tempo, time, training methods and progression... and understand why you're making those decisions.
