Cooking and Kitchen Hand

Review written by the host
5

What a great guy! Logan stayed with me for a full week and I'd happily host him for a full month or a full year if he asked. I love his sense of humor, and how laid-back and easy-going he is about everything. I appreciated that he helped around the house while I was busy with work and that he was self-sufficient and was able to take care of himself while I did work. He's a 10 out of 10, no doubt.

Chris was a wonderful host, offering great cooking, expertise on the area, and many ideas on nearby towns to travel. This was my first experience and I was borderline concerned about the new situation, but didn't have any issues with the stay. Also the view from his place is incredible. Thanks Chris!!

About me as an author

My name is Logan, and I have a passion for helping others improve their health and wellness regardless of their physical or mental abilities. I have worked with seniors, special olympics athletes, adolescents, and collegiate athlete, and many more in regards to improving their fitness. I look forward to meeting other to learn about their health and help them out in the process!

Background

Education

I studied at the University of Iowa, receiving a bachelors degree in exercise science. Through this time, I had numerous experiential learning opportunities at the university. On top of my formal education, I have a certified personal training certificate through NSCA, in addition to a certified inclusive fitness trainer certificate through the ACSM as well.

Work experience

My name is Logan Anderson, and I am a fitness professional devoted to making exercise inclusive for every individual, regardless of ability. I started my health and wellness journey in my sophomore year of high school, when I realized a lot of my extended family suffered from numerous health ailments. I took it upon myself to learn more about health and wellness and eventually pursued a degree at the University of Iowa in Exercise Science, in addition to becoming a NSCA Certified Personal Trainer and ACSM Certified Inclusive Fitness Trainer. Throughout my journey in college I divulged myself in a variety of coaching opportunities. I was exposed to working with children, general population, seniors, athletes, and even individuals with disabilities. This has helped mold me into a well rounded individual willing to give high quality exercise instruction and lifestyle intervention to both seniors and individuals with disabilities. I believe that simply living in this world is not enough, and that every individual should have the opportunity to not just survive, but thrive.

Travel experience

I have been around the globe and back, including time in Germany, Italy, France abroad. In addition, I have visited numerous states in the USA, including Iowa, Illinois, New York, Washington D.C., Florida, Nevada, California, Minnesota, Missouri, Michigan, Tennessee, Nebraska. I also volunteer for a company that works with individuals with special needs in providing travel opportunities around the globe as well.
