I liked this class a lot- I found it quite easy because there wasn't that much work to do, and what we did have to do was not that demanding. I also liked the fact that most of the days were spend at the YMCA, because I like the gym there, and I like to do my own thing at my own speed as opposed to being given a workout I have to do (like in normal gym class). There was nothing that I really didn't like; although I'm not a fan of watching all those videos about health and fitness, I see that they were used to convey necessary information, but I'm the kind of person who would prefer to read about it instead of watching a video about it. I did not really make that much progress in terms of my fitness, probably because I had been doing a lot of the stuff before I took the class, but it did give me an opportunity to make some changes to my workout- such as swapping my high weight low rep arm workouts for some more light weight high rep ones. I also learned how to use and started using some of the machines that I had never used before, so that was helpful. It also let me get what I needed to get done during school time, so I had more time for other things outside of class. I think if people had not been doing that much exercise on their own time before this class and they had actually put good effort into their workouts throughout the semester, they would have seen progress. I did get a couple of my maxes up, mainly just on the machines that I hadn't used before taking this class, because I was able to get my muscles used to them. I don't think I would do anything differently; I didn't particularly like that during the last couple weeks we had to do people's fitness blasts instead of doing our own workouts, but I understand why we had to do this. I would have liked to look at vitamins and minerals and what specific effects they have on internal systems, but with few in class days this would have been difficult to do. All in all I thought that this was a good and easy class and I enjoyed it. :)
