80% of all communication is nonverbal. It doesn’t matter how great your words are, if you are not matching them with your body language, you are not communicating effectively. Improving our body language is something all of us, especially in the personal training business can greatly benefit from. We talk about different body parts such as the feet, legs hips, torso, and arms and how to use each of them from a coaching and sales perspective to improve communication. The legs are a big part of body language which we should never ignore. We also learn how to read the small nonverbal communication cues from our clients. Your arms and hands are the most important of all body parts as far as body language goes. Some of the things we do with them are subconscious but as a coach or a salesperson, you should learn how to use them to communicate better. Crossing your arms, hiding your hands behind your back, and definitely no pocketing. Tune in and learn how powerful body language is not only through the lens of fitness but in all aspects of communication. Key TakeawaysWhat are the two types of body language?  (5:06)Why your feet and legs are important in body language and how to use them effectively to communicate (5:39)What can you read from the hips and laps in a sales setting (15:30)Why the arms are the most important in nonverbal communication (19:27)Why you should never cross your arms or walk with your hands behind your back as a coach (21:28)How to look out for discomfort signs from your clients (29:08)Recognizing body language through the lens of fitness (31:16)Additional Resources:www.AlloyPersonalTraining.comLearn About The Alloy Franchise Opportunity---------You can find the podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.If you haven’t already, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts!
