Summary
As a trainer, pushing clients past their self-imposed limitations while encouraging and challenging them because strength and fitness aren't linear. I won't put restrictions based on age or gender; rather I base it on their current goals until we have surpassed them. Having the opportunity to help someone grow both mentally and physically is not one to be taken lightly.
