10. INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF EXERCISE SUITABILITY

The initial meeting with a potential client is very important for the formulation of the exercise protocol we will follow. For this reason, it is necessary for the first contact to include a personal interview - discussion with the prospective trainee and the completion of a health history (full recording). If a health problem is reported, we may need to ask the update of the client's doctor and maintain contact with them, as appropriate. According to Greek law, before starting any systematic physical exercise, it is mandatory for the candidate / potential trainee to provide a medical opinion (at least by a cardiologist) stating that he is healthy and that he is allowed to exercise.
