Healthy (Helf) Influencing

By Eric Bugera

Choosing reality over rigidness.

• Health and fitness pursuits are not mutually exclusive.

• You provide direct influence over the habits of current and future clients.
• Leverage your influence to shine a light on the real process, not the reel process.

Controlled Influence

Your impact over clients, whether you want it to or not, gives you the distinct designation of influencer. You have become a person of influence in the lives of all those who you would work with and even those you do not (as of yet). The message(s) you deliver through social media platforms, check-ins, marketing and promotion, or any other avenue of communication are all outlets to provide an authentic representation of what fitness truly is. The fanciest and most marketable content is typically the victory laps of life. Championships, competitions, personal records, cheat meals, and on and on it goes. The true measure of influence that you wield is on the truth yo...

The discussion provides considerations for working with individuals of the NARP (Non-Athletic Regular Person) orientation, navigating allostatic load, recovery, and developing training adherence.

Communication Is A Skill

Don’t fumble the ball, marble mouth.

By Eric Bugera

• Communication is a key component of every fitness industry position.

• You’re tasked with taking a physical skill the way you understand it and translating it verbally in such a way that another human can perform it.
• This takes time, trial and error, and commitment. Start practicing.

What’s Your Job, Really?

You’re a trainer, coach, or clinician. Your skill set is primarily in the realm of physical fitness, rehabilitation, or performance; but, the unifying skill that overlaps any of these vocations is the ability to deliver your scope of practice to another human. Whether teaching a squat, stabilizing the core, or learning to jump – the ability to translate your knowledge in a way that properly lands with any individual person is the most important part of your job. What you know is a powerful asset, but if you lack the capacity to articulate your knowledge to the audience you serve – someone else...

It’s a Matter of Priority

You can’t have it all, at least not quickly.

By Eric Bugera

• Training is a long game, integrated into a lifetime and not one single training cycle.

• The body adapts quickly to what is prioritized, but a low ceiling from underdeveloped clients can undermine their ultimate goals.

• Invest early with multiple attributes and a diverse training plan – raise the ceiling of their capabilities such that when the time to prioritize comes they are ready to work.

The Long Haul

Most meaningful goals in training will take time. Thankfully, it’s becoming much more common for trainers to preach the long, sustainable path to their clients; however, there still seems to be a gap in comprehension for just how long the path might be. Although planting the seed of a lifelong pursuit of fitness is a step in the right direction, many beginner and intermediate level goals actually fall in the same boat. Things take longer than anticipated, almost every time. If you...
