What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
- I learned plenty of information I did not know before. Most of the information my trainer told me was completely knew, and I greatly benefited from the experience. The most important piece of knowledge she gave me was to keep track of everything. I believe this is the most significant thing I learned because it is what made me see the most positive changes in my body and mood. By keeping track of my diet, workouts, and body, I was able to know what I needed to work on or change in order to be one step closer towards attaining a fit and healthy body.

How did what you did help you choose a topic? Please explain.- My experience with my trainer helped me choose a topic because I saw that there was much more to fitness than simply dieting and exercising. I had different topics in mind during my junior year, but I think that by making my senior topic fitness related I will not only increase my knowledge on the topic, but I will also benefit physically. This experience also helped me see that a topic in fitness is not only about losing weight or eating salads, its about trying to be healthy.
