Should I Get A Personal Trainer Certification?

Hello Personal Trainer Los Angeles, I went to college for graphic design as a graphic designer and for the last two years, I have been more and more interested health, weight loss, fitness, and diet nutrition. I read everything I can on new exercise fitness workout routines and nutritional info and am an avid gym go-getter. I recently decided I wanted to get certified so the in the future if I decide I want to pursue something other than my job as a career (or just earn some extra income). Fitness training would be an alternative to an additional income. I contacted ACE Personal Training and ordered the ACE Personal Trainer home study kit that includes the ACE Personal Trainer manual, a 60 question sample exam, manual study guide, and a written sample exam. Do you think ACE Personal Trainer is a good start? Do gyms look at schooling or Personal Trainer Certification? What kind of Personal Trainer Certification do you need to get a job?

Well, I have been an ACE Personal Trainer with ACE Personal Training since 1993, and have been personal training since 1987. I first received my Personal Trainer Certification with Ballys Health and Fitness. This was a good starter Personal Trainer Certification, but nothing like the ACE Personal Trainer Certification.

ACE Personal Training is great with first time Personal Trainers. Most of the time, your personal training clients who people who just want to get into shape, with low level initial level of fitness, or people interested in weight loss – weight loss exercise, weight loss diet. There are more advanced Personal Training Certifications, such as ACSM and NASM, which are more focused on athletes, professional athletes, high fitness people. For Personal Training Certifications, Personal Training Certification for various Personal Trainer Certifications.

ACE Personal Trainer Certification is an excellent beginning. You should also acquire more knowledge in physical fitness, nutrition, diet, biomechanics, kinesiology, exercise science, etc.

A Personal Trainer Certification alone, including ACE Training, is not enough. You should also workout yourself for more personal fitness experience. Get a mentor who is experienced in personal training.

Should I get the CSCS certification / Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist?

I am interested in becoming a Certified Personal Trainer. I am considering going back to college for exercise physiology. I have been involved with athletics, weight training, triathlons, martial arts for most of my 40 year old life. I like the fitness industry, I worked in a few gyms in my younger days, including Living Well Fitness Centers. My question is, do you have to have a degree to be a Certified Personal Trainer? I checked out various Personal Trainer Certifications, the best one seems to be Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). Should I get the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist / CSCS certification and is there a major difference between CSCS and other Personal Trainer Certifications?

With the exercise fitness experience you have already mentioned, you seem to definitely have enough personal fitness experience for hands on fitness knowledge. And since you are forty, you have probably been exercising for many years to increase your exercise and fitness skills.

It really depends on what kind of people you want to personal train. If you want to get people in shape, lose fat, ACE Personal Training is great. If you want more advanced personal training clients like athletes, NASM and ACSM are great, including the CSCS Certification / Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.
