5/23

 Today was the last day of senior project and I am glad to say that I feel I got a lot accomplished and learned a lot. Today I worked on touching up blogs and making sure they look good to turn in. I also worked on my presentation and added photos and writing to where it needed to go. I wrapped up my action personal training work and made sure to look when I could go and take the official test to get certified.  Although I didn't officially get certified I will because I need to for my job this summer working at the YMCA. I look forward to getting back to campus a presenting the work and knowledge that I have gained over the past few weeks.

Today I worked with Luc who is a personal trainer for the Exeter Hospital, I shadowed him working with groups and single sessions. Today he had me do more example of stuff with the clients so I was showing exercises and setting up stations for future use. I brought up to Luc that I wanted to open gyms when I am older and he has a lot of experience. He has opened three business in his lifetime and two of them were gyms. His other was a cycle shop which he still owns, and he was a professional biker for ten years. He gave me some really good advice, like try to start your company younger rather than older. He also said that trial and error in business is the best way to learn. He also said something funny which was, never name your company with your name. His example was never call your business like Simons gym. The highpoint was learning all the new stuff about business and that error helps create stronger business owners. Hours 5
