Experiential Learning Benefits

For my senior capstone I gave a 45 min symposium for personal trainers in the community. Titled “Empowering the Trainer: Best Practices in Personal Training”, I discussed how exercise promotes longevity, improves quality of life, and covered topics such as current exercise recommendations, warming up, resistance and aerobic training, stretching, overuse injury, the barriers of exercise and how to influence others to exercise. This project undoubtedly promoted personal growth in the areas of research methods and interpersonal communication.
