Brown rice is too nasty.

What type of education did you have to do for that?
Exercise physiology?

Kinesiology and biomechanics?

nutrition?

Musculoskeletal injuries etc...

Yes basically + many theory & technique classes, and education focused.

The hardest class i ever took was kinesiology, but my professor was to blame.

I'm a computer nerd.. I spend 15+ hours a day sitting infront of a computer.

My legs tingle at night and when I wake up in the morning.. I think the muscle is rotting away. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

My office has it's own gym..

How long should I hit the bike every day for it to have a positive affect?

Kinesiology is hell lol. I had a lot of interest in it till I had to study it lol. Well, I still do find it all very interesting just something I wouldn't go to college for.

I've been told the first year is rough. But after you have enough clientele the money is good. After I pay my dues in a gym I plan on starting my own private studio so then the gym isn't taking 60% of the cut.

Thats where the big bucks in training are. I didn't pursue this in big bucks however, more so to help people and do what I love.
