This course is for beginner students looking to take control of their own fitness goals. I will teach you how to write your very own Workout Program.

I explain why calorie management is crucial to weight-loss, and how tracking ones MACRO’s can enhance the process (don’t worry, I explain what MACRO’s are as well). To get you comfortable with weight training, I give you basic weight lifts and explain the muscles involved while doing these movements.
