How We Assess, Correct, and Train Smarter at Made Possible

If you’ve ever wondered how we personalize workouts at Made Possible Personal Training, or if you’re a coach looking to sharpen your eye for movement, this video is for you.

We walk through the exact tools, movement screens, and real-world coaching strategies we use every day in our St. Petersburg gym. No fluff. No guesswork. Just smart systems that help real people move better and feel stronger.


🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Behind-the-Scenes Deep Dive:

  • Why we ditched old-school body fat calipers (and what we look at instead)

  • The real meaning behind hip-to-waist ratio and how it links to heart health

  • How we use the 7 checkpoint system to assess posture and movement

  • What it means when your feet turn out or your knees cave in

  • The 4-part corrective exercise system: inhibit, lengthen, activate, integrate

  • Our go-to assessments: overhead squat, single-leg squat, wall external rotation

  • How we apply foam rolling, mobility work, and activation to match the person

  • Which assessments we skip, and why they don’t always tell us anything useful


📚 Resources We Actually Use:

  • EXRX.net – for reliable movement references and calculators

  • NASM CES framework – solid structure for identifying and correcting patterns

  • Rockport Walk Test, Push-Up Test – simple, meaningful baseline tools

  • FMS (Functional Movement Screen) – used selectively when it fits


💪 Who This Video Helps:

  • Personal trainers who want to level up their client assessments

  • Fitness enthusiasts who want to understand what’s happening in their own body

  • NASM-CES students prepping for the certification and want real-world context

  • Anyone dealing with shoulder pain, posture problems, or nagging lower body issues
