More knowledge about weight loss. Will convey to clients.
Insight and reminders about weight loss. I will add it to those clients who want/need help with weight loss. Easy to read and understand.
A better understanding on determining the different daily caloric intakes for individuals and how to use BMI and WHR. I will use the things I have learned to better serve my clients and offer a better, more well-rounded wellness program.
This will help guide me to better address my clients with calorie intake. With my highly active clients, this will help me give advice on calorie intake after they do their workouts. This will help me with my clients.
Learned about ideal weight and how to measure it. Will be able to calculate calories and all the methods. Facts on weight loss. Great course. Learned a lot about calories.
Other options to weight loss. Educating client. Thank you.
