Question stem gives us following details,
Other health clubs:
1. pay their personal trainers based on the number of clients they see each day
2. may encourage trainers to rush through sessions to fit in more clients
Fitness Hub:1. personal trainers are paid a fixed salary regardless of the number of clients they train each day
2. no incentive to rush sessions
3. Therefore, customer receive thorough and unrushed training sessions.
Conclusion is that customer will receive thorough and unrushed training sessions at Fitness hub, so their fitness results will maximise.
We need to weaken Fitness hub's logic.
By pre thinking, we can see that fitness hub claims that as there is no icentive to rush sessions, customer will get thorough and unrushed training sessions. If we can figure out external factor which can impact training session, we will find weak link.
Looking at the options,
A. Trainers at Fitness Hub are evaluated based on client satisfaction, which can lead to trainers spending more time with each client to ensure positive feedback.If trainer are spending more time with each client, then it is good for fitness hub. Their claim of thorough and unrushed training sessions hold true. If anything, this strengthens fitness hub's logic.
EliminateB. Other health clubs in the area offer a wider range of fitness classes than Fitness Hub, attracting a broader clientele.
Even if they attract broader clientele, fitness hub is not talking about it. Fitness hub claim is about thorough and unrushed training session which leads to good fitness result. This does not weaken fitness hub as they never mentioned anything about wider range of classes.
EliminateC. Many of the personal trainers at Fitness Hub are inexperienced and recently certified, which could affect the quality of the training sessions.This does partially affect Fitness hub's logic. Maybe the fitness results will not be as good. But Fitness hub is arguining that they should be preffered because of thorough and unrushed training sessions, they are not talking about quality of these sessions. So, this does not weaken their advertisement.
EliminateD. Fitness Hub has a significantly higher membership fee compared to other local health clubs, which could deter potential members.Again this does not weaken their advertisement logic. Even if they are charging higher membership fees, their thorough sessions could lead to more benifits and might attract customers.
EliminateE. Fitness Hub allocates a fixed amount of time for each session, and trainers are required to adhere strictly to these time slots.Now this is something that we thought of during pre-thinking. If customers are allocated fixed amount of time for each session and trainers needs to follow it, then they might try to rush session to finish in fixed time. This attacks fitness hub claim that their sessions are thorough and unrushed. This weakens their advertisement logic
