What is the best way to get someone motivated to join a fitness program?

Question

Monica LaMar · Answer

What is the best way to get somebody motivated to join a fitness program? Simply ask. You never know until you ask somebody to join the program. Now I wouldn't ask a 65 year old woman or man who has had a knee replacement or a hip replacement to do the MIRF challenge this month for Memorial Day. What I would ask them to do, which is more reasonable for that age bracket, is how much water do you drink a day and can we add just a little bit more? So that is something attainable, feasible, and it doesn't scare them off. Making the fitness challenges appropriate for age level and also athletic level is key on motivating people. But the most one is you just simply inviting them. Most people won't do a challenge unless you ask them. So think what motivates you. That may motivate some of the other people. Making it more inviting, friendly, but attainable as well. So happy fitness challenge to all of you if you're trying to run it and if you have any other questions, please just reach out.
