Now a Certified Fitness Trainer!

So I passed my final exam this last weekend, and I am now an ISSA certified fitness trainer! I can't believe I got through that whole course!
My Army stuff got in the way plenty of times, and I was too tired to do school work most of the days of the week, so I crammed it in during the weekends. Especially Sunday, since the gym doesn't open until 1000, and I can't help but get up early.
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to help people achieve their goals in a healthy and safe way. I can think of no better way to make money! Being in the Army, I have had to sacrifice a lot, so I know about dedication better than a lot of people.
My husband helped me so much. It is so great to have someone who supports you no matter what. It has definitely been integral to my success thus far.
Once my fitness competition is done, I plan on using those photos to build my fitness trainer site, and get my name out there!

Friday's Workout

This a video of the basic work out I will do tomorrow morning. I plan on adding a set of 10 inverted rows before each exercise, and I will add an additional regular set to each exercise before the failure set. Tomorrow is Friday, and I love my back and biceps workouts! Today was a super long day, but tomorrow should be just fine :-) Getting my CPR/AED certification tomorrow, so I just need to write my essays for my ISSA personal trainer course. Super excited! However these last couple days have been terribly long, so I'm also super tired. Good night!

Getting My Personal Trainer Certification

So one of my goals for the new year is to get my personal trainer certification. I found a program (see below) that the Army tuition assistance program will fund. It should only take a maximum of 8 months.
I began changing my lifestyle to a healthier, cleaner one, while I was deployed last year.

 Since then I have seen muscle growth that makes me so happy, and now I have a body I am proud of. I built this body, and can do anything I want with it. I ran two half marathons this year. I've never felt so strong.

I want to be able to help other people to attain their physical fitness goals. Right now, people do ask me a lot about nutrition and fitness, and how they tie together. I love to help, and it is one of my favorite topics!

I can't wait to start my studies.
