ONLINE WORKSHOPS

"Back" in Action 

Back pain affects 8 out of 10 people.  The personal trainer is often left to bridge the gap between rehab and full function for life, work, and sport when it comes to back health.  Where do you start?  How do you progress?  How do you know if you're working within your scope of practice?  Find out "what's the hip got to do with it?", why ankle mobility can help your back when performing every-day tasks, strategies, physical examination, reducing tension, fitness & ergonomics and why making a back stronger may not make it better.  This Online Workshop will provide clarity on these issues and more!

BMI - History. Purpose. Fall-out.

We have all heard of the BMI and most of us know it doesn’t tell the full story of someone’s health status.  So why is the BMI so widespread and why do we rely on it as a health indicator?  The foundation of the BMI was developed in the 1830’s and has now taken a life of its own.  Follow the journey of the BMI to discover how it was developed, how it was and is used, the gaps and fall-outs it has created, and how you can apply this information to educate and broaden the perspectives of your clients.

Communication & Cueing for Weight Loss Clients - BRAND NEW TOPIC!!

This online workshop is a practical, experience-driven guide designed to elevate a Personal Trainer’s ability to communicate, cue, and coach weight-loss clients with confidence and empathy. Drawing from thousands of training sessions and over a decade of real-world coaching experience, Ryan Delaney breaks down the truth about the weight-loss industry, why traditional approaches fail, and how skilled communication becomes the trainer’s most powerful tool. You will learn how to conduct effective client interviews, identify motivational drivers, navigate the psychological and emotional challenges that weight-loss clients face, how to apply empathy, recognize “stages of change,” reinforce adherence through proven behavioural “hacks,” and design programs shaped by actionable assessment data rather than guesswork. You will gain a complete system for building trust, improving adherence, cue with clarity, and empower clients to take ownership of their journey. This is not another diet myth or quick-fix program—this is the professional’s roadmap to coaching real humans through real change.

You will receive a Google Slides presentation, which includes a quiz that must be completed and emailed to info@inshapetraining.net in order to receive CEC's.
