Study With A Research Attitude

Plan and schedule studying hours for a week. Cover it in any way possible. Speaking from my example, I could only allot half an hour in a day towards my studies. I could manage about 1 and 1/2 hours on the weekends.

But I did manage about 4 to 5 hrs of study per week. Apart from the active studies, I would recommend that future scholars attend live lectures and listen to live sessions in the FB group on relevant topics.

Also, listen to podcasts and watch youtube videos on related topics. Read articles on relevant topics. Research-based studying gives an excellent orientation to the subject. 

A Tiny Tip

Give importance to all 4 aspects of the course assessments. The basic, core, viva, and FTP are all important. Do not neglect any of it nor try to compensate.

The Bigger Picture

I want to guide and handhold individuals with chronic lifestyle-related medical problems in their fitness journey and help them live healthy lives.
