By Large, We Can Have Following Program Categories Of People Who Want To Participate In Exercise. 

  • RECREATIONAL PARTICIPANTS

Recreational participants are those people who just want to be fit to look good and to feel good. These people may not have perfect body shape or composition but they do not have any diseases and medical conditions too. They may want to lose some weight/fat or gain some muscle. The main focus is on staying in shape and being energetic to have a better quality of life.
To serve this category of the client the team requires the following components: 
The client
The personal trainer
And a nutritionist. 
Because good nutritionist along with physical activity is crucial for both weight-loss and weight-gain. 

  • SPORTS SPECIFIC / COMPETITIVE LEVEL ATHLETIC POPULATION 

This category is of those people who play a particular game or participate in athletic events at competitive levels. Along with fitness, they want to better their skills to perform at the time of competition.
To cater to this program category we need to have the following components in the team to achieve the best possible performance:
The client
The personal trainer
The sports nutritionist 
And the coach.
Athletes/ sportspersons have special needs when it comes to their nutrition and also they need sports specific training.

The personal trainer can chalk out the strength conditioning program after having a word with coach related to specific movements those need to be worked on.

  • SPECIAL POPULATION

Special population means all those people who are not at the optimum level of health. People who have health issues. People who are dealing with medical issues. Ideally, these people must take care of their medical issues before they either gain or lose their body weight. The ideal goal of these people should be reaching the optimum health and then take care of the aesthetics.

Monitoring of the food intake is also important to manage the health issues.
