The ACE certified Personal Trainer is currently using verbal cues to instruct him through the exercise. Which of the following teaching methods would be MOST effective to help the client gain a better understanding of what the trainer wants him to do?
- Continue to demonstrate proper strength-training techniques to the client.
- Incorporate a kinesthetic method to guide the client through effective execution.
- Use the same words and methods every time for consistency and to reduce confusion.
- Continue to praise the client for progress even when the execution is not correct.
