Interview 1
Interview 1 Extra Stuff

1.)What is the most important thing I learned from the interview? Is there anything I would do differently for other interviews?
-I learned several things from this interview, one of them was that I should  try to find the workout/diet that best works for me. This was helpful because I was extremely nervous about having to lift crazy amounts of weight but my mentor told me that I would do workouts that best suited my person so as to not overwhelm myself.  Justin also explained to me about supplements that are taken to help an individual reach their fitness goal. He said that I wouldn't need any right now because I'm just doing exercises to prepare my body for the P90x and gym. But nonetheless he explained about the different types of supplements and the best time to take them.
-I realized later on that running through a practice interview would have been better so that he could  relax and prep a bit. He provided amazing information but he seemed more comfortable after we talked about the project without audio recording anything, the conversation had a more natural flow. Talking about the project without audio recording also allowed us to get more familiarized with each other which also made things run a bit smoother.

2.)Did I get additional resources and contacts? What is the most useful? Why?
-Justin didn't provide contacts, but he did give me several websites to look into, such as bodybuilding.com, darebee.com, and he also provided a couple of apps such as Freeletics and Loseit.
-All of the sources  he provided have been extremely helpful in helping me find workouts, good eating habits, and helping calculate macros and such.

3.)What makes my interviewee qualified to help me?
-Justin has been a certified fitness instructor for about 2 years now and in that time has helped several people reach their fitness goals.
