This is great. As an online fitness behavioural change coach, I really appreciate this video, which consolidates the currently used major models in this space. Thank you.
Thanks for the lecture 😁 I Ihave a question what are the convenient exercices( apart from swiming) to help lose weight if someone is having an arthritic knee??
40:00 you mention that it’s important that the clients define SMART goals. I’m in two minds in this and I’m not sure this is necessary and can in fact be counterproductive. What I mean is that goals out of necessity only define a motivation for a short period and then become irrelevant - it engenders the opinion that the regime they’re on (diet or exercise) is a short term intervention until the goal is reached, rather than being a chronic lifestyle change that they’re commuting to. Is it not better to actually to concentrate rather on making a prescription that is fun and engaging but open-ended and can contidnue indefinitely as part of a lifestyle change and constant challenge?
Hi X X. I see your point. To counter it: Setting a goal is designed to motivate people to initially adopt healthy habits like exercise. However, additional goals will be needed after the completion of the original goal to keep them exercising. Based on the transtheoritical model of behavioral change, people are less likely to stop exercising (even after completing a goal) if they have been exercising continuously for 6 months or more. Whatever it takes to get them to this point is worth doing (whether it is a goal or some other motivator). Check out this video for additional information: ua-cam.com/video/GLHXyP4-5nw/v-deo.html
