We're happy to have you here with us as we take you through a lower body personal training session.
In this video, Jeff will be taking Alexis through a lower body session. Throughout the personal training session, you will be able to gather some cueing for major exercises, tips and tricks for a smooth session and an idea of flow throughout a training session.
This video does not depict a full personal training session, but rather a sample. Your sessions are likely to be much longer with more exercises and overall sets.

I’m a personal trainer, have been for almost 6 months. I’ve been an athlete and in a gym setting since I was 12. I have to say man, you have some very high quality information and are spot on. You have been an awesome source of information & validation for some of my own practices. Thank you for holding the fitness industry accountable and doing everyone a favor!
I really appreciate the support and comment! Hearing things like that is definitely what keeps us making content!
Wish this was available when I first started training people, I appreciate all the content you put out here, thank you
Thanks that’s really great to hear! I appreciate the support!
Starting to personal train people now and your videos are a god send. Thanks man, love the content!
Thank you! I’m really glad to hear that! Welcome to the field!
I am a new CPT, and your videos really help me put together all the info I learned, and create good sessions! Thanks
Of course! Thanks for the kind words and letting us know! It’s always great to hear!
You are a great source of information, and I learn something new every time I watch your videos. Cannot thank you enough!
So glad you find them helpful!
thank you for ur great content
Thanks for your support!
I'm just coming to the end of my course, and once I've completed it I'll be going into the Fitness Industry to become a personal trainer. I'm a little nervous but I'm 22 and have been training power/bodybuilding casually for 3 years and decided to try out something I enjoy which is something gym related, hopefully its a good experience!
Congrats on getting to the end of your program! Training is a grind in the beginning, but stick with it! This job certainly rewards people who are willing to go outside of their comfort zone consistently!
Would you do a video on a strp by step guide on determining a clients sub-max amount?
Thanks for the support! It’s something I could see myself covering at some point! Though, I don’t know that I’d do an entire video on that. It’s not something I do to often with actual clients.
I love your videos .. it’s been 2 years that a personal trainer and your content help me to improve my job so well thank you .. love from Belgium Europe
Thank you so much for the support and letting us know! We really appreciate it!
In the last year I got my certifications and became a personal trainer. Your videos have helped me a lot. Thank you!
Congrats on getting certified! Thanks for the kind words! Im glad you’re finding our content helpful!
Love your videos man! You may have already, but could you do a walk through on how to do an effective 30 min session with a client if you haven’t already! Thanks 💪🏼
Thanks for the support! I haven’t done a 30 min session video yet, though I might in the future! I don’t know that I would structure things differently but I’ll have to think about that!
I agree! Most of my clients are 30 minute sessions at the gym.
another great video, thanks guys keep it up, trying to get where you guys are
Thank you! I appreciate that! Keep working hard and you can get there too! It just takes persistence!
good professionalism and teaching, and another valuable video!

I subscribed . Keep them coming👍🏾
Thank you I appreciate that!
Hey Jeff i recently started watching your Videos on Pricing and found them helpful. I notice you have knolledge on why you do certain work outs, but lack listening and visually seeing your client not be able to feel certain muscles while doing a lateral banded walk and then asking her if it was "easy, medium, hard." She said "hard," and you didnt listen and lied to yourself, Saying its "do-able."if its a warm up, shouldnt you focus on activaiting the muscle or regress the lateral banded walk to a Side clamp Shell or even a side plank Hold on her knees? curious on your thoughts... Also noticed you tried to talk to her in the middle of her set while shes doing about her PERSONAL LIFE... thats not a issue, the issue is that your taking her focus way from her actually performing this movent correctly.. i liked your explanation of the deadlift and on the goblet squat.. I love the transparancy and honesty in your videos, i hope to provide you with the same.. much love! just seen you posted this 2 years ago, hope much has changed..
Thanks for watching!
1. I disagree with almost everything you’re saying about the lateral band walk. Just because it’s early into the workout and it’s on the harder side doesn’t mean it’s any less effective at warming her up, activating glute medius, etc.
2. Some clients prefer to talk a bit when exercising. I know Alexis well and she doesn’t like silent sessions. If she was having a form issue, I would focus on that instead of talking. That said, you have to take session conversations on a client by client, exercise by exercise basis.
You also have to keep in mind that this is a UA-cam video. There’s extra talking and explaining because of that. In some sessions I’m pretty quiet, but of course I would be less likely to upload sessions like that to UA-cam.
you need to do posterior tilt in the hip flexor stretch no anteriro tilt
You’re right she’s leaning a little too far forward there. It was hard to tell when filming
Nice vid
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Nice Vid guys!
Thanks JD!
I wish we could email you. I just got certified. I wanna shadow a trainer as you suggested and even get trained myself but not sure how to interview trainers for that. Some are just money driven I noticed. Anyway if you gotta video on picking a trainer lemme know. Thanks for all your help regardless
Honestly, all you should have to do is email a few gyms and ask if you can shadow a trainer. Most managers/trainers will be ok with someone watching.
You’ll have to put yourself out there a bit to make that happen, but that’s what the job is all about in the first place.
Hi Jeff--great content as always. Did you receive any assisted stretching certification? Would love to do this for my clients but reluctant to do so without some formal education. Thanks!
Thank you! I’m a licensed massage therapist so I have more experience in a lot of assisted stretching related things. I’ve never done a certification on any of it though.
That being said I was doing these techniques before getting licensed and I’ve taught trainers to do them in about 15 or so minutes (they’re pretty easy tbh)
Honestly, practicing these stretches on some friends and family is probably enough to get started. I dont think you’d need a certification. That being said, it’s all about what you’re comfortable with!
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation cool, thanks!
Very hulpful
Glad you think so!
Hey Jeff, loving the videos! Thanks for making them :) I was just wondering how you manage to fit cardio into your personal training sessions? Do you include it in each session along with resistance training or maybe set it as "homework"? I have clients who have cardio and strength goals but I only see them once a week and find it can be tricky to include everything (warmup, cardio, total-body resistance (2-4 sets), stretches etc) without going way over time... any tips would be really appreciated :) Thank youuuuu!
We keep clients moving fairly quickly (depending on goals) with supersets and trisets. We also include some metabolic work such as battle ropes, plyometrics and other conditioning work throughout the session. Our sessions are structured for 45 minutes of personal training time and we recommend at least 15 minutes of cardio before or after the session. We also “assign” it as homework.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation Thank so much for replying - Sounds great! I really like the idea of the 15 mins before/after :) This channel is so helpful and interesting! Thanks for the advice! :)
have you ever had a client injured during a training session and if so what do you do in that case ? just wondering here from your experience.
Good question! I’ve never had anyone get seriously injured but I’ve had clients pull muscles, and have other minor things happen.
Basically the only thing you can do is work around the area that’s bothering them. Ask them if they’re feeling discomfort in the affected area for each of the following exercises. You can also try to stretch the area out after it starts bothering them and towards the end of the session too.
How would you modify most of these exercises (including the pre/post stetches) for a client who is not able to come down to the floor?
In a more recent video I show some stretches seated on a bench. You could do those. I’ll share that link here: ua-cam.com/video/OW2JlZX_E2s/v-deo.html
I’d probably do lighter Romanian dumbbell deadlifts with anyone who I was unsure of. I may just skip the ball brides all together and replace them with something else. The same goes for the hamstring curls and deadbugs. There are seated hamstring curls that you could do off of the bench instead. The same goes for core exercises. There are ones you could do off of the bench.
The rest of the moves would probably be fine if you keep them lighter.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation Thank you so much! Just recently found your channel and really enjoying it!
What would you recommend for clients who are extremely double jointed??? I had a client who said her shoulder popped out in a dead lift 🤦🏼♀️ freaked me out. But it didn’t hurt her
The only things you can do are to start light and really make sure she’s doing a good job of keeping her lats, abs, glutes, and other supporting muscles tight while performing the lift.
If those supporting muscles are contracted correctly, she should be fine, even if she is hyper mobile.
I just got certified through NASM. What are your best videos for getting started? Also, can you recommend any good reading material to help?
Congrats and welcome to the field! We’ve got a bunch of videos that I think would be useful but I’d probably start with this one: ua-cam.com/video/D1M7xAolq6I/v-deo.html
Thank you 🙂
Do you happen to have your programming sheet in an excel format? The website only has pdfs :/
Unfortunately, we don’t have the excel format available now. That could change in the future though.
Hi i have a question:
I was shadowing a pt named sanza at virgin actice and he was training a lady for 8 months and i cant understand why she stayed with him for so long and didn't go out on her own in the gym. He transformed her into a super athlete but im sure that after the first 3 months or so with sanza she could easily go out on her own and make progress. So why did she stay with him for so long if she had the tools to leave after the first 3 months? It seems like if you show a client the ropes theyll be gone on their own fast if you actually taught them something. So how do you retain clients for years if they already have the knowledge and experience?
She stayed with him because she liked training with him and felt like she still needed the accountability. Most people know what they have to do to get or stay in shape. That doesn’t mean they’ll actually do it though. Many people need the appointment time and accountability. It’s probably the main thing that we provide as trainers. The clients knowledge has very little to do with whether or not they stay training with you.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation ok cool thanks very much for the reply
i am a personal trainer and i give home personal training. i want to know ho can i train 100 clients. how can i manage all with hiring trainers also. how can i manage all ??? please make a detail video

It’s self study so you can go at your own pace. The cost starts at $600 and goes up from there depending on what option you want.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation thanks you sir
how to find personal trainer job in America what is the best way
I would start looking on indeed.com
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation thanks you sir
I mean this in the most respectful way possible, Alexis’s gluteus maximus is really well developed.
Lol that’s why I married her! I mean…it was her personality….hopefully she doesn’t see this 😂
Lol well kudos sir. Jokes aside, your content is really informative and I appreciate the free content.
She needs to work on her shoulders immediately
We’re working on them!
She has such long femurs.... Wouldn't it be easier for her to squat in an even wider stance?
It helps a little but her heels still lift a bit some days. Her tight calves or lack of dorsiflexion is really the issue.
