I remember this lady approaching me 5 years ago. After a 5 minute chat I Referred her to her GP. Her symptoms were those similar to early signs of Parkinson’s.
A few days later she came back in and confirmed what I had first thought. She was scared, upset and very depressed.
I have now been working with her for 5 years. We see each other for 3 x 30 minute sessions per week.
We work on fitness, motor skills (balance, co-ordination, speed, power, reaction time) mobility and adaptability.
It’s my job to try and prevent her Parkinson’s from worsening and receiving messages like this is one of the best feelings you can ever experience as a Trainer. Knowing that my time and skills is helping someone get the most out of life.
My niche is specialising in older clients, health related goals & post surgery rehabilitation. Working on things in the gym that will help people outside of it, in everyday life.
I wouldn’t change my job for the world 🌎
