What to Expect in Your Follow-Up Consults

Why Follow-Ups Matter

Follow-up consults are where progress happens. The first session sets the direction while follow-ups refine the plan, build momentum, and ensure your training is purposeful, safe, and aligned with your goals. They prevent guesswork, stalling, or drifting off track.

 

Frequency and Timeline

​Follow-ups are scheduled to suit your goals and phase of care. Early on, sessions are likely once or twice per week to build technique, confidence, and routine. As you move through your True Potential Pathway, sessions naturally become less frequent. Your progress, your body’s response, and your goals guide the timing of each session, ensuring your plan is always tailored and effective.

Why Frequency Is Higher in the Beginning

For best outcomes, we want to control as many variables as possible, get to know you and your body, and learn how you respond to load. You are not a textbook case study. Your body responds in its own way, and our job is to work with that, not force you into a template. 

 

The time you invest now compounds exponentially, helping you build confidence, establish good habits, and make meaningful improvements, while reducing the risk of flare-ups and inconsistency derailing progress.

A strong foundation prevents issues down the line. When people miss this stage, the process takes longer, they experience comparatively lesser results, and it ultimately costs more. As you improve, time between sessions gives you space to practise self-management and build independence.


Minimum of Two Strength Training Sessions Per Week

​In accordance with research and guidelines, to achieve real health outcomes, we aim for a minimum of 2 strength sessions per week. Typical rehab exercises with bands are a great starting point and can enhance your results but are not classified as strength training on their own. Whether in supervised sessions or independently, the goal is consistent, long-term change, not short-term fixes.


What Happens in a Follow-Up Consult

​A typical session includes:

  • Check-in  |  Wins, challenges, symptoms, and lifestyle factors shaping your week.

  • Accountability & Behaviour Support  |  Reinforcing habits, routines, and follow-through.

  • Targeted Reassessment  |  Reviewing movement quality, strength, and fitness markers to track progress.

  • Exercise Review  |  Refining technique and updating cues to keep you moving well.

  • Load Management & Symptom Monitoring  |  Ensuring training stays effective, safe, and aligned with your current capacity to prevent flare-ups.

  • Program Adjustments  |  Progressions, regressions, or new exercises based on how you’re presenting today.

  • Education & Expectations  |  Understanding what’s changing, why it matters, and what to focus on before your next session.

 

Every session is designed to move you forward, even if progress looks different each time.
