    For new team members, we must provide comprehensive functional checklists to ensure smooth onboarding. All work completed by new members should undergo thorough review based on these checklists before being submitted to clients. If existing members are neglecting checklist compliance, we need to investigate whether the issue stems from skill deficiencies or a lack of motivation. Skill-related problems can be addressed by identifying and resolving bottlenecks such as time constraints, knowledge gaps, or inaccurate efficiency calculations. Behavioral issues arising from a lack of motivation require one-on-one discussions to correct attitudes and ensure compliance.

    Addressing team members who sidestep workplace safety protocols requires a proactive yet respectful approach. Start by emphasizing the *why* behind the rules—explain how safety measures not only prevent injuries but also improve overall performance, just like proper form in functional training prevents injury and enhances strength. For example, if someone bypasses ergonomic techniques for lifting, demonstrate the correct form, such as using a squat to lift heavy objects, just like in functional training. Offer constructive feedback and encourage open discussions to ensure everyone understands the long-term benefits of following protocols. How do you handle these situations? Share your tips below! 👇

    To address a team member ignoring safety protocols in functional training, have a private conversation to understand their perspective and emphasize the importance of safety for both their well-being and the team's performance. Provide specific examples of the overlooked protocols and offer additional training or resources to reinforce their importance. Encourage open dialogue for any concerns they may have, set clear expectations for compliance, and monitor their adherence while providing ongoing support to foster a culture of safety within the team.

    Lidar com um membro da equipe que ignora protocolos de segurança no treinamento funcional requer uma abordagem cuidadosa e estratégica. Procuraria conversar em particular, buscar meios de reforçar a importância da segurança, ofertar treinamentos adicionais ou reciclagem e buscar monitorar o progresso. Essas abordagens, realizadas com empatia, comunicação clara e seguindo os procedimentos corretamente, tendem a ter bons resultados.

    I think it's important to discuss any potential safety protocols in a safe space/environment, this being a quiet location in or outside of the gym. Then take the opportunity to discuss if they are aware of the safety protocols and reemphasize the importance of them. It should be treated as more of a discussion than a criticism.
