Therefore, fitness trainers should have a relatively professional knowledge of human anatomy, physiology, medicine, nutrition and motor skills, in addition, they should also understand psychology. Because the coach needs to be good at communicating with the customer to accurately understand the customer's needs and provide assistance.

Being well-informed is the minimum quality of a fitness trainer. For example, in order to achieve the best results of fitness exercises, the coach should also be a "personal doctor" who has a certain amount of health knowledge, understanding the member's diet, the nature of work, sleep quality, etc. Different training methods are developed for different people.

However, at the same time, the fitness coach only provides guidance for the members' health exercises, and provides certain guidance for some post-illness or postoperative recovery, but cannot replace the doctor's treatment function. A fitness coach should be good at communication, and even be able to operate and promote; Not only to be in good shape, but also to be eloquent.
