Reviews
Very clear instructions. A better study guide with concepts and coverage of studies and purposes of exercises would be helpful.
Very detail and good information about anatomy, a little bit deeper that I was expected. The exercises are very practical and easy to teach.
Numerous videos with lots of details to recall in order to pass the quiz is tedious and boring. Would have been better to show slides periodically to emphasize the overall points instead of just listening to a "talking head" presenter. The information was very detailed and it's ESSENTIAL to take detailed notes. In addition, the exerciser model often hyperextended her knees and elbows! The trainer/presenter did not bother to correct in her positioning because he was focused only on the basic movement. A few times he adjusted her body position (pelvis and spine alignment) but did not notice her limbs in hyperextension at elbows and knees.
