Every time a client visits our personal training center for a consultation, I always ask them what their top 2 goals are. It may be to drop 10kg of fat, it may be to fit into an old dress or pair of jeans again. It may be to rehabilitate a shoulder or knee to full strength and function, it may be to improve running, jumping and athletic performance to win a athletic contest.

No matter what it is, one of the important aspects of coaching, is to help that personal training or fitness boot camp client to break their goals down from the “outcome goals” that that want, into the daily “process goals” that will help them get the result.

A set of process goals for fat burning or weight loss might be…(written in present tense as that is most “recognizable” by our brains)…

• “I eat a breakfast of meat and nuts for maximum energy and immune system function everyday”
• “I eat 8-10 servings of veggies and fruits to make sure that I have all the fiber and nutrients that I need”
• “I will take 12 (or more depending on body-fat levels) grams of fish-oils per day”

etc…

Making the weight loss or fat loss outcome happen is easy when the process is in place.
