What this sheet is for

Hold one client's history on one sheet, so you start each session knowing what you did last time and both of you know where the paid block has got to.

Who it is for

Personal trainers, strength coaches and instructors working with clients one to one or in small groups.

How to use it

  1. Use one sheet per client and keep it with their paperwork, not loose.
  2. Write what was worked on during or straight after the session.
  3. Record what the client reported in their words, not your interpretation of it.
  4. Update sessions remaining every time, so there is never an argument about it.
  5. Note injuries and limitations at the foot, where you will see them next time.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: One client's sessions kept together — what was worked on each time, what the client told you afterwards, and where the paid block of sessions has got to.

A record about a client. This is a working record kept about a named person, including things they have told you about their body. Store it accordingly, show the client their own record if they ask, and check the rules where you are on keeping records of this kind. Nothing on this sheet is medical advice or a substitute for it.

Sessions

Table, 8 rows: Date · Worked on · What the client reported · Paid · Sessions left · Next booked · Initials

Ruled lines: Injuries, limitations the client has told you about, and referrals

Questions

Why record what the client said as well as what you did?

Because it is the part you will not remember and the part that changes the next session. A sore shoulder mentioned in passing is worth more on paper than in your head a fortnight later.

Does this sheet count as a health record?

It holds personal details about a named person and sometimes information about their body, so treat it carefully and check the rules where you are on keeping and sharing records of this kind. Nothing on the sheet is medical advice.
