Singer and songwriter Patricia Kihoro has come forward to support Frankie Just Gym It following his comments on the distinctions between a fitness instructor and a personal trainer.
In an interview, Frankie, a father of four, highlighted that personal trainers need to be aware of their female clients’ ovulation dates, addressing concerns about personal space and boundaries.
He clarified, “A fitness instructor is just someone employed in a gym to take care of day-to-day activities like cleaning up and all. If a client comes in, they can show them a few things but can’t guide them through a certain routine.”
Frankie further explained, “A personal trainer is invested in who you are, has to know your everyday routine, how work is like, what stresses you, even your ovulation; he has to know all that. It is very crucial.”
Addressing the controversy around the ovulation comment, Patricia Kihoro took to her InstaStories to express her perspective. She emphasized that understanding a client’s ovulation cycle helps trainers tailor workouts more effectively.
“As a gym enthusiast, it’s honestly laughable that people are taking this the wrong way. He is right. The female menstruation cycle affects how one will show up at the gym on particular weeks/days of the month. This information helps the trainer train you better. Please let’s educate ourselves. The man is right,” Patricia Kihoro stated.
