- Your Degree Team 

 

What brought you to Degree in the first place?

I came to Degree because I saw Coach Emma, a former student of mine, advertising her work as a personal trainer on Facebook.  I knew she would be an  excellent coach because she was an excellent student. I trusted her to guide back to better fitness. 


What was your first impression? How has it changed?

My first impression was that I could never improve fitness at my age, and that I would be around a bunch of highly competitive super athletes who would laugh at my attempts to get fit. Nothing could be further from the truth! Everybody has been super friendly and encouraging.  Emma is very good at challenging me but not with things that are too hard to do. She is very encouraging and has a warm and positive attitude. 


What was your first "Bright Spot"?

I can't  remember whether it was my first bright spot, but did a burpee!! I can hardly believe that I can do it! 


What are you working on now?

I'm working on walking every day, drinking lots of water, and doing one of the work it's that Emma has designed for me before my next session. 


What is your advice to someone thinking about starting 1-1 Training on Zoom?

My advice to anyone thinking of starting Personal Training is DO IT! I have never liked exercising before and I love my workouts with Emma. I don't feel embarrassed about what I can't  do or how much I weigh. I never judged at all. I feel proud of my accomplishments and improvements. That's because that's the attitude that Emma has when she's working with me. She teaches me to have the same positive attitude. I feel better about my myself because of my work with Emma.
