Met with my trainer again today. The really good thing about being coached by a professional is that he knows precisely how to strengthen targeted muscles despite limitations imposed by my shoulder arthritis and old injuries. He is working with me gently but aggressively and is very encouraging. He is introducing me to exercises that I was previously unaware of . I feel confident that we are going to make some fast progress.
After today’s session, he presented me with some printouts of my overall starting statistics and goal statistics, along with a chart of today’s workout and recommendations for my cardiorespiratory workout and daily calorie recommendation. We will also be talking about nutrition and supplementation.
