The Importance of a Solid Knowledge Base - Episode 34

[powerpress player] Brett and Mike discuss their thoughts on the importance of gaining a solid knowledge base as a fitness professional. The fitness industry has a low barrier of entry which can be a blessing, but also a curse. While there are easy ways to get certified and start training, there is so much value in continuing to improve your knowledge base beyond what's "required." The MED duo discusses:

• The importance of anatomy, physiology and psychology
• Communication
