The initial appointment with a new client is typically 60 minutes. We discuss goals, obstacles, and then we go over a couple quick assessments. Based on those assessments, I teach them foam rolling stuff and stretching. The movement prep and SMR is done prior to the next session. The client usually comes in a few minutes early and then is ready for me, as soon as I am done with the client before. 30 minutes works well because we bang out sets and combo's, and leave little time for dilly-dally.
