Quality Vs. Quantity

I have been running PT as a Navy Recruiter for 4 years now.  The one thing I notice people failing at consistently is their form.  Whether it's push ups, sit ups, squats, or running, almost every individual I work with sacrifices form for quanity.  It's more important to get the basics of fitness down before you try to excell.  Two things will happen to you if you fall under this category.  You will not impove on what you're trying to do, you will not excell.  And you will potentially injure yourself, setting yourself back even further.  Take the time and learn how to do things correctly, and in the end you will be much further along.  You will surprise even yourself.

If you come to my PT here in Manchester, please take the time to ask me questions.  I will show you exactly what you're doing wrong, and work with you until you have it right.  It might not seem like a big deal that you're squat is a little off, however, the moment you add weight to it you're gonna jack yourself up.

Please feel free to ask questions here as well!
