True or False: If a client looks healthy and athletic, the PAR-Q can be filled out quickly or partially.
FALSE
Your assessment didn't show up and there are no notes on the calendar. What went wrong?
Whoever booked it didn't leave a note (could be trainer, sales or front).
You also did not reach out the day before to confirm and to get to know the person before they came in. This would have prevented a no show.

What important step is often missed during Kickstarts that affects client success?
Supplement hand off. If you're taking supps- your clients should be.
A client says, “I didn’t know I had workouts in the app.” As the trainer, what should you have physically watched the client do during the Kickstart to prevent this?
Open their app- go to their program.
True or False: Supplement recommendations should be skipped if time is short.
FALSE
A client says they only came to do a workout not fill out the Par q with you. How do you handle that?
Be understanding and ensure the client that this is a part of the assessment to get to know their physical readiness in order to partake in the assessment.
Your hand off should be a 5 minute summary of the persons life, the entire workout you just did and recommending to book out sessions. True or false?
FALSE. Handoff should be quick- 2 min MAX. Only summarize things that need work NOT the entire workout. We NEVER recommend- we say I NEED to see you 2 times a week for an hour.
