Stabilization First

I had someone come up to me at the gym today. He said he wanted me to show him what I was doing. I was doing my Men'sHealth Phase 2 circuit workout. He said he started working out and wanted to do some weight training.  He asked if he could see what I was doing. I wanted to help him but I also told him he needed to start at a basic level to avoid injury. The first level of the OPT, Optimal Performance 

Training model is Stabilization/Stabilization Endurance. It is the foundation of a successful workout regime.
I've just started studying for NASM's CPT and I didn't want to mislead him. It did feel good to be asked and I can't wait until I have clients of my own to train and help them achieve their fitness goals.
