Placards Please…
• Here is what members get on their own…
Questions
• “Does everyone do the same exercises?”
• “With all of that capability, where do I begin?”
• “How do I know which exercises to use?”
Answer
• “You must know the person you are working
with.”
• 2 key behavioral components to ‘knowing the
user’:
• Aspirations
• Preferred style of training
Aspirations
• The person’s motivation behind their goal
• Goal-based training produces a
workout
• Aspiration-based training
produces a personalized
movement experience
Aspirations Research

personality and lifestyle
• Aspirations fit into 6 core
categories

Recap…
• Aspiration provides you with “WHY” they are
exercising
• Style will tell you “HOW” they want their
training to look and feel
• Together they:
• Personalize the movement experience
• Increase enjoyment and compliance
• Promote renewals, resigns and revenue
The Dilemma
• Kinesis Full Gravity Technology allows us to
have an endless variety of exercises
• So many choices can be scary
• Would you like a movement development
system?
