For our first episode in our Workout Review series James talks about parallettes, and why they were part of the original equipment line up when he started Wild Training in 2010. Parallettes are an amazing way to work on your upper body and core strength. The training focuses more on control and static positions that create huge benefits in not just your body shape but your performance as well. You really find out about all your weakest muscles when you use parallettes, which is why the results you achieve probably come so quickly. Early in his career James experienced a lot of benefits with Parallettes and then developed loads of variations to make training with parallettes accessible for everyone to have fun with. They really are a tool everyone can use. Anyone looking to amp up their core training or create some variety in their upper body workouts will get a lot from training with parallettes. James talks in detail about the Explore Fitness parallettes, and why he has become such a big fan of their products.

James dives in to Kurt's training style and they talk about the value in not having a 'niche' as a personal trainer.
James and Kurt both qualified as personal trainers with the same education company, at similar times, and had lots of different experiences in doing the job in different types for fitness facilities. They talk about the pros and cons of starting out as a young personal trainer, and what the education industry could do better to prepare new personal trainers for working, and succeeding in the fitness industry.
They finish talking about how their view of the need for personal trainers to have better support in education, training skills and business strategy has lead them to launch the new Wild EVO personal trainer license.
