Hi Ursula, welcome to the forum!

You wouldn't, by any chance, know Fay Kirlin, would you?

I checked out her website, and bugger me! After due consideration have signed up for some special online training.

I'm going to be doing a lot of work in my own space, and look forward to using some household items as personal equipment. I just hope I can get them clean again afterwards.

I’d worry more about disinfecting. Y’know, given the participants.

How has your personal training journey evolved?

I thought about hiring a personal trainer about 6 years ago.

Then I figured, why don't I just become a personal trainer and save the time, trouble and expense.

I forget the details, but I believe you had to pass a written test, get a Red Cross CPR Certificate. There is a fee for the test.

I got the Red Cross Cert, it cost a few dollars, maybe $20, maybe $100.

I read the books used to prep for the test and passed the sample tests.

That was good enough for me. Since I was going to be my only customer I figured I didn't have to pay to take the real test. So I declared myself a personal trainer and took me on as a student.

I thought about being a personal trainer, but it's too much initial capital outlay.

Have any of y'all priced the cost of whips, chains, gags and the price of black paint?

It sure changed the meaning of the next sentence:

The convenience of training in my own space and the use of household items as equipment has been a game changer.
