Situation A. Working Out at the Gym
Speak Out
Script
Trainer :
Hi. I don’t think we’ve met before.
Are you new here?
Trainee :
Yeah, I just signed up yesterday.
My name is Jake.
Trainer :
Nice to meet you, Jake.
I’m Jieun, and I’m a trainer specializing in personalized fitness plans.
Trainee :
Nice to meet you.
I want to start lifting weights, but I’m not sure how to begin.
Trainer :
I see.
Here’s a tip.
Start with lighter weights and focus on form to reduce the risk of injury and achieve better results.
Trainee :
Oh, I was actually planning on starting with heavier weights.
Trainer :
I wouldn’t recommend that.
It can be risky, and you may hurt yourself.
Trainee :
Okay. What about my posture?
Trainer :
Your posture is important, too.
Keep your back straight and chest up.
To prevent back strain, avoid rounding your back.
Why don’t you give it a shot?
Trainee :
Sure. You mean like this?
Trainer :
Yes. That’s great form.
Trainee :
Thanks for your help, Jieun.
Trainer :
No problem.
Don’t hesitate to ask for more help if you need it.
