What impressed me most was how current, practical, and applicable the curriculum was. I now have the confidence to help athletes perform better and safer, guide seniors toward maintaining independence, and apply science-backed principles in every session.

I’ve just recently graduated from this amazing university. From 2021 - 2025; what an amazing journey it was. The professors will go to the lengths to help you understand and comprehend the material. The digital library comes in handy no matter the course you’re taking, and the weekly prompts help you balance work life and school. Being a father, working 3 jobs, this university is the only way I could have completed school.

Where do I start? I can never say enough about Lionel. The education I am receiving, the staff, the resources to help us succeed are outstanding! I thought I had a handle on fitness and nutrition, and it wasn't until I enrolled in the Associates Degree Program to realize I had some bad habits which I quickly rectified and it shows in my training.
