Group Fitness Instructor

Category - Feedback

It is important for a Group Fitness Instructor (GFI) to provide helpful feedback to group exercise participants. Which of these is the LEAST effective form of feedback?
  1. Providing support
  2. Offering reassurance that participants are performing the exercise routines correctly
  3. Giving positive reinforcement
  4. Providing constant feedback
Explanation
Answer: D - Receiving too much feedback can prove to be overwhelming for people who have recently begun to exercise. In addition, ongoing feedback can prevent the novice from internalizing movement patterns and moving from early stages of learning to more automated stages. Instead, helpful forms of feedback include providing support, offering reassurance, and giving positive reinforcement on an intermittent basis.
