It may be true that a highly motivated person can work out well even at a club managed by his or her worst enemy. But most of us are not like that. We all know that our dues are in part paying for his or her salary.
Liking a club owner or manager may sound trivial to the dedicated athlete. He or she will say that at best these folks pay the club’s bills in a timely fashion, thereby insuring that doors will stay open. Beyond that they are little relevance.
If we were all as single-minded as an Olympic champion, this might very well be all that we would need to care about. But few of us are at that point. Consequently, the feelings we have toward the club’s decision-maker is of utmost importance.
Liking this individual can be crucial. By liking, it assumed that there is a general respect for his or her attitudes and inclinations toward the both the members and staff. These become evidenced in his or her daily actions when at the club and also in the staff when they are not present.
Disliking what club owners or managers are all about creates an unhealthy set of feelings. Few of us thrive on such antipathy. Those of us who do are most often eventually cut off from further relating even to members like ourselves. That can cause one to lose interest in the daily attendance which is needed for workout success.
Perhaps the single most important question to ask about this person is over whether they care about the club members actually improving at their fitness routines. That is far different than only caring about the number of advance paid memberships.
We all go through up and downs when maintaining a regular fitness lifestyle. As a result we need all of the help we can get to stay on course. A large part of that comes from having a good feeling toward person who pays the club’s bills.
Perhaps the best way to say it is that we are all better off around others who rely on us more for our improvements than for our monthly dues payment. Knowing that others care about our success makes it far easier to make to the club that day when it seems just to hard or do that one more repetition or to even make it there in the first place.
