The importance of how the ABC Fitness Training Program plays in our everyday workouts. This course will be applied in all my programs for my clients. It was awesome!
Learned the next steps in the progressions the exercises for my balance class. The course provided me with progressions. I can vary the class. Love the illustrations in the course. I have already used some of them.
New Exercise drills to train clients. I would apply this to a client who wants to increase speed, agility and quickness. Also some very good balance exercises are included.
I learned many balance and agility drills to use with my current clients. I’ve rewritten my current exercise plans to include the new balance and agility drills I’ve learned. Well written, filled with useful information.
Gained so much knowledge!!! I would recommend this course to any professional who really wants to have an impact on his client life. Can’t wait to apply it to my clients!!!
I have gained many new and safe exercises for my clients. I love how it is set up and the precise and well explained information.
“Any Trainer will tell you how important core work is, you can never learn to much about it. Individuals use core throughout the day whether its sitting or standing. Lots of good exercises and progressions. Thorough progressions and lots of new cool exercises to add in to any regimen easy to follow and learn, great pics for visual.”
Highly recommend! Great course! It is laid out in an easy to follow format, from start to progression. 5 stars. Easily transferable to practical use. Thanks, GMP Fitness!!!
