My Major Goals
Major: Fitness Management & Personal Training
I am currently majoring in Fitness Management and Personal Training to possibly become a personal trainer. I wanted to follow this career path because I love learning about the health and nutrition and how the body reacts under different kids of training. By watching family members get sick due to their possible unhealthy life-style I have been committed to educate myself to better understand the body and how to help others live a healthier and higher quality life.
My Career Goals
Certified personal trainer
My main career goal is to become a certified personal trainer. I also hope to get certified in other health related subjects such as nutrition and weight lifting. I think that these will be valuable for me and my future clients to be better qualified to help meet their fitness goals. By getting a bachelors degree in kinesiology at IU Indianapolis, I feel I will be better equipped to direct clients and a path that will be most beneficial. I think that also getting certified in other health areas from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) will better prepare me and certify me for my position as a personal trainer
Flexology
Another Career that I hope to get into is flexology. Over time time at IU Indianapolis I have explored other careers in the health field have found myself fond of flexology. I grew up dancing and understood at a young age how important range of motion is for people. I even had a lab sophomore year that talked about streching and had us practice with a partner stretching one another to help increase our range of motion. I have found different stretch labs local that I have an interest working for. According to the local strech labs they suggest becoming certified in some area of fitness and then you will get training by the floxolgy company to become a flexologist. I see myself first becoming certified to be a personal trainer and then along side of personal training eventually venturing into flexology.
