A Personal Trainer Checks the Calendar

Chris booked six sessions with a personal trainer and asked for all of them on Monday.

The trainer explained that he needed recovery time between sessions.

Chris said that was exactly what he wanted.

The trainer asked what he’d be recovering from….

Chris’s employer offered staff a contribution towards fitness classes.

Chris booked six sessions with a trainer.

Could we do them all on Monday?

The trainer said it was better to spread exercise across the week.

Your body needs time to recover.

Chris said he understood.

That’s why I chose Monday.

The trainer asked whether he worked a difficult weekend shift.

No. I work in an office.

Then what’s the rush?

Chris opened his calendar.

The trainer saw meetings booked every morning from Tuesday to Friday.

Exercise won’t get you out of those, he said.

Chris pointed to the recovery advice on the booking form.

You said my body needs time. I’m trying to get that in writing.
