How To Become A Personal TrainerThere are many ways on how to become a personal trainer. Some of the most common are as follows Personal Trainer Certification – Become A Certified Personal Trainer To Become A Personal Trainer Exercise Degree, Fitness Degree, Or Medical Degree To Become A Personal Trainer Personal Trainer Publicity To Become A Personal Trainer Become A Personal TrainerPersonal Trainer Certification – Become A Certified Personal Trainer To Become A Personal TrainerOne way on how to become a personal trainer is to acquire a personal trainer certification. Your best bet is to get your personal trainer certification will a nationally recognized personal trainer certification. The following is a list of nine of the most common national personal trainer certification organizations. Personal Trainer Accreditation * American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) After you become a certified personal trainer with one or more of the personal trainer certification organizations for personal trainer accreditation, you will start to have a solid amount of knowledge on how to become a personal trainer and personal training. Acquire An Exercise Degree, Fitness Degree, Or Medical Degree To Become A Personal TrainerOne way to become a personal trainer is to acquire an exercise degree, fitness degree, or a health degree. You can get an exercise degree, like a gym teacher, a fitness degree, like exercise kinesiology, a health degree or any degree related to health, like a chiropractor, a D.O (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine), an M.D. (Medical Doctor) or a Biomedical Engineer. A more advanced degree like a health degree will give you the background and flexibility necessary in your personal training for the variety of different physical bodies you will encounter when you are personal training. Acquire Employment As A Personal Trainer In A Health Club Or Fitness Center To Become A Personal TrainerAnother way on how to become a personal trainer is to get a personal trainer job at one of the major health clubs like Ballys Health Club, 24 Hour Fitness, Spectrum, or Equinox. They usually have their own certification programs, and you will become a certified personal trainer through their own personal trainer certification. Of course, you can also get a national personal trainer certification, like ACSM, NASM, ISSA, or ACE. Health Club Personal Trainer or Fitness Center Personal TrainerIf you get a personal trainer job in a health club and become a health club personal trainer or even a gym personal trainer, the health club gym does most of the personal trainer business work for you, but on the downside, you only earn a percentage of the money, usually less than half. If you have your own personal training company, you can earn all the personal training money, but you will also be responsible for the personal trainer business. You will need to get a business license, personal trainer insurance, which is usually personal trainer liability insurance, and do your own taxes. Personal Trainer BusinessIf you own your own personal trainer business, you will have to find your own personal training clients, which takes some risk. You will have to do your own personal training marketing, and personal trainer advertising, like personal trainer flyers, advertising in the newspapers, nutrition stores, certain coffee houses, anywhere that allows you to advertise your personal trainer business. Personal Trainer GymMany personal trainers take their personal training clients to a personal trainer gym, which is an exercise gym that allows independent personal trainers. Personal trainer gyms usually charge by the hour from $10 to $20 per hour and/ or they charge a monthly personal trainer rent, which is usually from $100 to $1200 per month. Home Personal TrainerIf you decide to be a home personal trainer, you won’t be responsible for a personal trainer gym fee, but you have to travel to their homes, which for personal trainer travel time cost can run pretty high. Many personal trainers I know started as a personal trainer at a fitness center, health club, personal training for them. After they got enough personal training experience, and personal training clients, they started personal training on their own. Acquire Personal Trainer Publicity To Become A Personal TrainerPersonal trainer publicity is another way on how to become a personal trainer. After winning the state title of Arizona in bodybuilding, I received a lot of attention and many people wanted me to start personal training them, so I became a personal trainer from the publicity I received from winning a bodybuilding competition. I also see many personal trainers getting personal training clients via TV shows, cable shows, and even newspapers. These are all publicity or media advertising.
