In today’s fast paced world our busy lives leave little time, energy, or motivation for people to focus on their own needs.
Those that do seek to improve their wellness traditionally turn to friends, family, specialists and published materials for support and information. All too often those support structures fail to make a lasting difference.
This happens for a number of reasons. Friends and family may not be capable of helping. Working with experts is time eating and costly and very few of us are effective at taking published, generic information and applying it to our own lives.
Gold’s Fitness Club Winston-Salem has developed a new online health promotion program that expands the range of support available to those wishing to make healthful lifestyle changes.
The health promotion program, Gold’s Fitness Club Wellness Coach, focuses on the daily challenges of making positive lifestyle changes and has the advantages of being more customized and efficient than generic, published information and less intense and expensive than expert face-to-face counseling.
Utilizing a collaborative problem-solving model the goal isn’t to give advice, but rather to help person think through the problems and come to their own conclusions.
The coach offers ideas for consideration, assists the individual generate ideas of their own, assists the individual consider the various ideas, choose a direction, and then supports them in the implementation of their decision.
Challenging the conventional wisdom that relationship formation requires in-person interaction; Gold’s Health Club has found that members and coaches have the ability to build significant relationships via internet based communication.
Utilizing industry leading technology a Gold’s Fitness Center Health Coach can offer members a secure, user-friendly personal website where they can access their coach in a real-time or via email with responses delivered in less than 24 hours.
The site permits coaches to hand choose relevant articles that are written on a consumer level and that are targeted to the issue at hand and add them to a member’s online personal library.
The site also contains various wellness programs and tools which are developed to assist the coach and member to set, implement and track specific objectives.
The collaborative relationship formed between member and coach enhances the quality ice and efficiency of service. The familiarity that a coach develops with a member’s circumstances and significant relationships authorizes them over time to more rapidly offer useful ideas and assistance.
With traditional call-in assistance lines, the time intensive exercise of getting background and contextual information is repeated each time. IN that scenario efficiency is lost.
Moreover, Gold’s Gym Health Coach has developed a protocol based on key principals from the field of psychotherapy and behavior modification.
The protocol is embedded within a proprietary problem-solving that is based on the theory that individuals often act without a excellent understanding of a problem. Their responses then complicate matters and often make matters worse.
Gold’s Gym Health Coach offers the opportunity to step back, take a second look at what has going on, and rapidly asses the factors influencing the situation. But, having an idea of “what” to do is very different than actually “doing” something about it.
People need help with the follow-through. Additionally, after figuring out “what” to do, Gold’s Fitness Club Wellness Coach focuses on implementation.
Here Gold’s Gym Wellness Coach builds on sound research and experience from the field of behavior modification that has to do with goal-establishing and with implementation support.
The end result is a extremely personalized, effective, user-friendly way of improving the wellness of an individual. The efficient nature of the online relationship authorizes Gold’s Health Club Wellness Coach to keep the price point within reach of virtually whoever.
