Claim Your Free 2020-21 Fitness Facility Wallchart
Wallcharts are old school. But they still work. Having exercise guides on the wall helps clients when you’re not around.
Why Wallcharts Matter
Not everyone learns from apps or videos. Some people need visual guides they can see while exercising.
Wallcharts also make your space look more professional. Clients see you’re serious about proper form and technique.
Our personal trainers in Melbourne use wallcharts in home gyms and studios. They’re surprisingly effective.
What Was on the 2020-21 Chart
The 2020-21 wallchart focused on functional movements. Squats, deadlifts, push-ups, and rows. The basics that everyone needs.
It also included bodyweight alternatives. Perfect timing since many people were training at home during lockdowns.
Home Gym Applications
2020 was the year of home gyms. Everyone was setting up workout spaces in garages and spare rooms.
A good wallchart turned any space into a mini fitness facility. No need to remember exercise names or proper form.
For Different Training Styles
The chart worked for all types of training. Boxing personal trainers used it for strength training between boxing sessions.
Female personal trainers found it helpful for clients who were intimidated by complex programs.
Visual Learning Benefits
Some clients are visual learners. They need to see the movement pattern, not just hear instructions.
Wallcharts provide that visual reference. Especially helpful for new exercisers who are still learning basic movements.
Professional Appearance
A well-designed wallchart makes any training space look more professional. Whether it’s a home studio or commercial gym.
Clients notice these details. It shows you care about their experience and safety.
Cost-Effective Education
Wallcharts are cheap compared to other educational tools. One chart can help hundreds of clients over its lifetime.
Much more cost-effective than buying individual exercise cards or expensive digital displays.
Durability Matters
Good wallcharts are laminated or printed on durable material. They need to survive sweaty gym environments.
The 2020-21 chart was designed to last. Water-resistant and tear-proof materials.
Placement Strategy
Where you put the wallchart matters. Eye level is best. Near the main exercise area where people can easily see it.
Our trainers in South Melbourne and St Kilda experiment with different placements.
Digital vs Physical
Apps and videos are great. But sometimes you need something that’s always visible. No need to unlock phones or find the right video.
Wallcharts are always there. No battery required. No internet connection needed.
Client Independence
Wallcharts help clients become more independent. They can check their form without constantly asking questions.
This builds confidence and reduces your workload during busy sessions.
For Online Training
Even online personal trainers can use wallcharts. Mail them to clients setting up home gyms.
It’s a nice touch that shows you care about their success beyond just video calls.
Exercise Progression
Good wallcharts show exercise progressions. Beginner to advanced versions of the same movement.
This helps clients see their path forward. They know what they’re working toward.
Safety First
Wallcharts emphasize proper form and safety. Common mistakes are highlighted. Injury prevention tips included.
This reduces your liability and keeps clients safer when training alone.
Customization Options
Some companies let you customize wallcharts with your logo and contact information. Great for branding.
Clients see your information every time they work out. Subtle but effective marketing.
Multiple Chart Strategy
Different charts for different areas works well. Cardio area gets one chart. Weight area gets another.
NDIS personal trainers might use specialized charts for adaptive exercises.
Updating Regularly
Wallcharts should be updated regularly. Exercise science evolves. New techniques emerge.
The 2020-21 chart reflected current best practices. But 2025 might need different approaches.
Client Feedback
Ask clients if they find the wallcharts helpful. Some love them. Others ignore them completely.
Use feedback to decide where to place charts and what information to include.
Beyond Exercise Instructions
Modern wallcharts include more than just exercise instructions. Warm-up routines. Cool-down stretches. Safety reminders.
They become comprehensive training resources, not just exercise guides.
The Bottom Line
Wallcharts are simple tools that work. They help clients learn, stay safe, and train independently.
The 2020-21 version was particularly good because it addressed the home training boom during COVID.
Want to train with professionals who use every tool available to help you succeed? Our personal trainers across all locations combine old-school wisdom with modern techniques.
Sometimes the simplest tools are the most effective. Wallcharts prove that every day.
