One of the most effective ways to maintain your health is to stay fit and active. Indeed, even when  recovering from an injury or preparing for a major joint replacement procedure, being able to stay fit is that much more important, yet can be a challenge. In this course, you will learn how to train a client through an injury as well as in preparation for a joint replacement procedure.

This will enable you to retain clients even if they have an injury that would otherwise sideline their training — which will help you to keep the income you’ve worked so hard to put in place — in a manner that’s safe and effective for everyone.
