- Keep the workout space small and preferably well known to the individuals. (For example a workout done in a large gym may be overwhelming)
- They may easily lose focus or get off task. It may be beneficial to keep a visible schedule or list of things you will be doing that day.
- It may help to allow them access to a preferred location or object during the interview. For example they may prefer one specific piece of exercise equipment you can use that piece as a reward when they complete something you have asked them to do.
- Ask one question at a time. Explain new activities one step at a time. Make sure they understand what you have said before you move on. Don’t allow them to just say yes they understand.
