A Renewed Sense of Vitality
When you are stuck sitting in a cubicle for eight hours a day, five days a week, it becomes far too easy to lead a rather sedentary lifestyle. As a result, you may find that you are lacking in energy. You may be getting out of shape. Vicky was going through this exact situation when she suddenly had a revelation. She just couldn't take it anymore, so she set out to whip herself into shape. One year later, Vicky feels younger and more energetic than ever and she wants to share this wonderful experience with everyone around her.
Saying goodbye to the cubicle for good, Vicky went to see if she could share her feel-good lifestyle with other people by working at a local gym. Unfortunately, all of the gyms in the area rejected her application. What is a girl to do? Determined to make a difference in people's lives, Vicky rallied all of her life savings together and decided to open up a local gym of her own. This way, she could run the business as she saw fit and she could really get people to experience the same healthy high as she is.
It is with this renewed sense of vitality that you enter in the world of Fitness Frenzy. Whip those customers into shape and make sure they walk out the door smiling from ear to ear!
The Perfect Fitness Trainer
Each client that walks through the door will have rather specific needs. It's understandable that some people are more interested in building muscle mass, whereas others want to work on their cardiovascular health. It is up to you, as Vicky, to provide each and every customer with a customized exercise routine for the day.
When a client arrives at your gym, click on him to see what his needs are. He will tell you whether he'd like to work on his upper body strength, cardiovascular health, or whatever. It is also with this pop-up dialog bubble that you can view the proposed length for his workout that day. Each "square" must be filled with a certain exercise. For example, if a client is asking for a two-step cardio regiment, you may tell her to hit the warmup mat for stretches and then to hit the treadmill for a run. This would be the perfect workout for her!
Workout routines range in length from one exercise to five exercises. While a customer is enjoying their workout, they may require instruction as to how to use the equipment or they may need some encouragement to keep on going. Attend to their needs to make sure they stay happy. This way, the customers may give you a huge tip when they pay for the day.
Equipment Management
Customers don't like to wait. When designing the unique exercise routines, be sure to manage your exercise equipment carefully. If you see that the treadmill is going to be used soon by a customer stretching on the warmup mat, it may not be a good idea to get a new customer to use the same treadmill. Tell the new customer to use the available exercise bike instead, for instance. It's not just about time management in this game; it's about equipment management too.
Further still, people sweat when they exercise. As a result, some of the equipment can get doused in a fair amount of perspiration. After a client is done with a piece of equipment, check to make sure that it is cleaned for use by other customers. You wouldn't want to lie down on a sweaty bench press, would you?
