Client Plateau Diagnostic Checklist

10 questions across 5 domains. Find the actual cause of the plateau before you change the program. Lower score = bigger gap.

Lower score = bigger diagnostic gap. Do not invert in your head.

Each question scores 0 (problem) / 1 (suspicion) / 2 (clean). Zeros are the signal — they tell you where the gap is. Lower total = more zeros = more domains to fix.

Plateau is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Find the actual cause before you change the program.

Ten questions across five domains: Measurement, Programming, Execution, Recovery, Adherence. You'll get a domain pattern map showing where the gaps are, plus a routed corrective for the domain that needs fixing first.

Score what consistently happens

Before you start: pick one specific stalled client. Score what actually happens week to week, not what you intend or what they occasionally do. The 0/1/2 anchors come from the literature — use the actual numbers instead of grading on a curve.

Use an anonymized label or initials — the value is included with your submission and analytics.

Initial run, or a follow-up after a corrective.
