What's up, Achievers?! Super fun episode for you all today where we recap some of the highlights from this past weekend of our Fit 101 Workshop! Quick shoutout to our coaches, Sarah and Ted, for doing a phenomenal job! Also, super fun to finally meet some people who we've been corresponding with quite a bit on Instagram.

In our first question, we talk about how to position a barbell on your back depending on what stance you're using (6:31).

Next, we talk about how to go about training someone who is older and slightly more deconditioned - it was asked from someone who was about to work with their father, which is pretty cool (11:28)!

Lastly, we discuss when to go about switching up your program after you've been on it for a little while. We go on some tangents like the concept of WODs and "muscle confusion" and soreness (17:36).

We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles!
