What We Look for in a First Session (That Most Gyms Miss)
The first session reveals everything. Learn what elite performance clinics assess that most gyms completely miss.
Most gyms treat the first session like a sales pitch. They show you around, maybe do a quick assessment, and try to sell you a membership. But at Elite Performance Clinic, the first session is different. It's a comprehensive evaluation that reveals everything we need to know.
What we look for in a first session goes far beyond what most gyms assess. We're not just checking strength or flexibility—we're evaluating movement quality, identifying compensations, and understanding your unique needs.
Here's what we assess in a first session that most gyms completely miss, and why it matters for your long-term success.
First Session Assessment Checklist
- Movement quality: How you move, not just what you can lift
- Compensation patterns: What your body does to work around limitations
- Stability signals: Ribcage-pelvis alignment, scapular control, hip control
- Asymmetries: Left-right differences that could lead to injury
- Recovery capacity: How well you recover between sessions
- Training history: What's worked, what hasn't, and why
