My fencing wasn't my best, but the tournament started almost an hour late for no good reason. The referees were HORRIBLE - as in I lost three touches in a five touch bout because the ref confused who was the red light and who was the green light when we touched. They were single light touches - so only I could have scored and he gave the points to my opponent - enough that it cost me a win in a bout. The venue was too hot, the strips were too close together (as in we were afraid we were going to run into other fencers) and a bunch of other stuff.

What peeved me was I drove 2 hours, paid a crap ton in tolls, plus the tournament fee and it was worse than high school tournaments I've been to.

Rant over. I feel better now.

Glad the PT was able to help with the pain.

I fenced a ****show of a tournament on Sunday - I'm still pissed about it and it's Monday night. Too tired to work out today.

Hope everyone has a great week.

Having worked in the fitness industry for the last 10 years, at the beginning when I was thinking to become a personal trainer and in looking for a personal training certification. OMG! There were hundreds different companies with their own certification programs. so there was a problem to decide which one of the certification to choose and was thinking Is it difficult to pass a test for getting a certificate? I've been looking at NASM or ISSA mainly because most gyms recognize them. I found that the NASM certificate is generally accepted that every single gym as high-end certification. So the next I was looking for the study and tips to pass the test. As I have read in many articles and internet in looking to pass the NASM personal training certification. I have just found this article ptpioneer.com/study-nasm/ to pass my certificate. I recommend you to check out this article maybe it will help you further.
