I will be doing an internship that I received in Phoenix, Arizona at an elite fitness facility called FAST. I have the opportunity to work with experts in the field I will be studying as a performance specialist intern. With this I will be learning first hand how FAST professionals are able to help people around the world improve their overall health and sport performance. I will get to spend time shadowing and interacting with FAST team members to learn what they do on a daily basis and how they contribute to the company’s goals, and thus the lives of the gym’s attendees. Along with participating in learning sessions, I will be helping to plan and implement programs for new clients. I will be working approximately 8 hours a day and be able to obtain a great learning opportunity by understanding the FAST company and showcasing my own talent and ability. These hours will provide me with first hand exposure to the characteristics I would like to develop within myself – characteristics that will enhance my professionalism and competence in this career path.
