I’ve just come from the gym so please excuse this poor analogy: I have gym sessions written by a PT. I get to decide targets for myself (e.g I want to do a 100kg deadlift) with his agreement and help. I am not a naturally athletic person but the PT doesn’t say ‘Oh Louise, you should only go for 80kg

because you were bad at PE at school (except swimming) so 80 is your target.’ I wouldn’t feel very motivated and would probably find another PT. I’m a human, the same as a pupil is human. I did 85kg for 5 reps tonight btw so well on the way to 100kg!!
