Independent Component 1 Plan Approval

(1) Write a description of what you plan on doing for your independent study component.

So my goal is to create a workout plan for myself because most training instructors have their own workout plan to get people fit. So I'm creating a  workout plan and do it for 30 days or more and try to get some results. If I't works then that would be great because that means it's an effective workout.

(2) Describe in detail how you think your plan will meet the 30 hours work requirement.

Well I'll be hitting the gym 2 or 3 hours a day and I'll probably go over 30 hours but at least i'll already have done 30 hours. I'll also be having mentors to help me out and guiding me on which workout would be the most effective.

(3) How does your independent study component relate to your working EQ?  

Well in order to teach a class or person as a fitness instructor you need to build you're own workout plan for people to do.   If the workout plan a success then it wold be great because in order to be a successful fitness instructor you must have a good workout plan.
