I want them involved in on it.
I think things work better when you get them involved.
So go, okay, which hip thrust do you want to do?
At my gym, we do hip thrusts.
rotisserie hip thrusts, ramp hip thrusts, and thruster pro.
You won't know what those mean, but which hip thrusts do you want to do?
Or say it's, say they're doing a squat.
Do you want to use the glute builder squat machine?
Because it's really good.
Or do you want to do a Smith machine squat?
Do you want to do a barbell squat, box squat?
Do you want to use the T-bell and do the squat that way?
Which squat do you want to do?
And I let them choose.
And they go, let's do a rotisserie hip thrust or let's do a T-bell squat.
All right, what are your records?
And then they say, well, I've done, you know, my record with the T-bell squat is I've done 100 for 16.
I've done 125 because we load up 25-pound plates on that.
I they are very involved in the process and I go, OK, which do you want to beat today?
And I give them some autonomy.
