"1 give my students a list of tasks — exercises — that they must complete in an hour's time," Hackett explained. "Each task is different and challenging based on the fashion in which they are performed." With roughly 20 circuits from which to choose, each class provides a unique test of Hackett gives these circuits inventive names, like the Fitness trainer Mike Hackett, left, closely watches client Andy Miele during a recent session. 0\ -4£ to-- PHOTO BY REN EE LANDUYT Centaur, Reptilian, and well as physical ability." same old exercises, so I started ways.
