Reflection
Since receiving feedback from Dennis, there are certain changes that are needed to be made. Overall Dennis’s feedback was fairly alright with no changes to be made majorly. One thing that needs to be changed on our weekly training program is the gym class on either Saturday or Sunday. This is because Dennis will be at the farm on most weekends. From here we will need to consider something else for Dennis to do and complete on the weekends. This may include increasing the intensity or the time of the sessions each day as he will have more time to get further into the program.
