Greetings Cool People!
We hope you’ve had a funky February! Content posts have been on hold still, but we have something very important to announce: Eli has been accepted into UCLA’s Master’s of Public Policy (MPP) program, and will be able to start in the Fall semester. The MPP program is a department within the Luskin School of Public Affairs, encompassing Urban Development and Social Welfare programs as well. There are a wide array of electives that Eli will be able to take within the MPP program to help him with his goal of incorporating strength training into the healthcare model as part of integrative/preventative care, as well as increasing access to healthcare in marginalized communities. While we’re still hearing back about the Master’s in Public Health, Eli will be able to get started on the classes for both, and apply completed classes towards MPH if he isn’t accepted for the Fall semester.
We want to thank everyone at 24 Hour Fitness Northridge including coworkers, clients, friends and general well-wishers for their support with this endeavor. Without their support Eli would not have made the push to grad school. His time there and interactions have furthered his resolve to make strength training and coaching accessible to everyone. We’ll be keeping you up to date with all the news as this goes forward!
