The Program
The health and wellness concerns of your female clients take center stage in this innovative new program. Whether you are training a young woman, an aging Baby Boomer or an older client, this course is a necessary part of your education to help keep your client strong, healthy and fit both mentally and physically throughout her life.
Separate
training modules will address the issues that are most important to the
modern woman. You’ll learn about how to keep her metabolism active
and how exercise can control, or in some cases even help to prevent, certain
diseases. You’ll learn to integrate good eating habits with her
exercise routine and you’ll discover specific lifting techniques
tailored specifically for a woman’s wider hips and narrower shoulders.
If you work with female clients, this program will help you to design
and implement programs that will allow your client to reach her fullpotential
– at any age!
You can
take the entire weekend, or just choose the courses that fit your schedule
and interests.
Each workshop is $29, or you can take the full program (eight workshops)
for $199. Scroll down to find a program in your area.
