Question:
I’ve been following your videos lately and figured I’d ask a question regarding how systemic factors (for lack of a better term) play into your treatment and training approach and how you might address this in dialogue with those that come to see you for help.
For example, you may find some limitations in movement capabilities either in a movement assessment or a table test, but you notice from their history that they are a smoker, have poor markers of aerobic fitness, have a high BMI, and/or have a reportedly high level of stress at work, etc. Although I’m sure assigning some movement-based interventions may be helpful to this person, how might you address these overarching factors as part of your treatment/training paradigm. This question is motivated by observing some trainers and therapists doing what they feel most confident or competent in and not always addressing issues that may need to be addressed first (or concurrently). Thanks for considering and, should you choose to answer it, I hope this question is even more useful to your followers than it is to myself.
In this video:
I discuss the concept of a circle of competence for trainers, coaches, and therapists and some effective and foundational elements of behavioral influence to improve client outcomes when clients may present with complex issues.
