What’s the difference between process and outcome goals for fitness clients
The outcome goal is long term and is characterized by something your client wants to Be, Have and or Feel within a certain time frame
The performance goal is a domino that you need to knock over to achieve the outcome goal – IT IS NOT A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GOAL
Performance and outcome very similar for fitness clients, so make sure you find out what your client REALLY wants
A Process goal is 100% in your client’s control, it consists of modifiable changes in activity, nutrition, mindset, sleep etc.
These process goals stack up to achieve the performance goal and then the outcome goal.
