Greater sense of fulfillment

For Wang Linbo, the coach from Beijing, witnessing the progress of his trainees through providing personalized sports services has given him a greater sense of fulfillment.

"I used to teach large classes at a gym, with many students in each session, but after class, I couldn't remember any of their names," he said. "Sometimes, when some children asked me about their movements, I couldn't specifically identify what their problems were."

However, one-on-one sports services are different. "In a one-hour session, I can thoroughly understand students' physical conditions and athletic abilities, even their nicknames, allowing me to create a tailored exercise plan," he said. "This approach also helps the trainees to master skills more quickly and become more confident."

He cited a student who initially couldn't jump rope as an example. In the beginning, the child was quite reserved, but after receiving targeted training, he quickly mastered the technique. Now, the trainee is more talkative and has developed an interest in other sports activities. "I'm proud to see his growing confidence," the coach said.

In his view, progress not only inspires children to establish a habit of regular physical activity, but also helps cultivate their endurance and perseverance, which are more important for personal growth.

There are seven other coaches like Wang Linbo at the company he works for, serving over 1,000 customers. While traveling between neighborhoods providing in-person guidance, they also develop and design more workout programs to enrich the exercise content and make the door-to-door sports services more professional.
