1: What is “arthritis,” and explain its impact in the US?
Inflammation of the joints causes pain, stiffness, and limitation of motion. The Arthritis Foundation states that arthritis has a cost that goes beyond pain: medical care, lost wages, insurance, lost income taxes, homecare services, etc. Conservative estimates of the annual cost of arthritis place the total at approximately $15 billion annually and rising.
2: What are the six basic guidelines recommended by the Arthritis Foundation to effectively assist arthritic clients?
Consult with a physician to plan the ideal program.
Begin the exercise program at a moderate intensity level, gradually increasing.
Get sufficient rest between exercises.
Rest adequately.

Tyler you are the man 🙌🏼, here’s a huge thanks for what you do👏🏼. I just had a quick question, can ISSA certification land a job in Thailand at the moment during covid?
Thanks so much for the kind words. In terms of using a certification in a specific country, I definitely recommend asking local employers what certifications they accept. Good luck with your personal training career.
