Last week I was working with a client and during this particular session she was working very hard, I mean she always works hard, but during this particular session I wanted her to really feel like she worked out and accomplished something by the end of it, because on that day I could feel that she needed an accomplishment pick me up.

We went for a 20 minute walk where I set the pace so she could just barely keep up. After that we got into strength training and I had her do a lot of corrective exercises for her posture, which she finds incredibly challenging and compound or full body movements so her entire body was engaged. I thought she was having a really good session, her form was good and she was keeping up with the torrent pace that I had set for her, then with about 10 minutes to go as she transitioned from one exercise to the next she said she needed to take a break just to catch her breath for a second, which was of course fine she’d hardly taken any breaks up to that point. But as she was catching her breath she said this, ‘I’m really out of breath, why isn’t this getting any easier, I’ve been doing this for a long time it should be getting easier, I bet you never get out of breath like this.’
