Another idea is to become the authority on fitness. Use content based search engine optimization. Articles, blogs, web 2.0 pages, press releases…they all help raise your website ranking and put you out on the net as the expert.

Comment on Useful Information on Personal Training Fitness Education by Super-Trainer

Super-Trainer — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 22:23:17 +0000

I think a degree in exercise science or another health related field always a bonus – not so sure about PT as it’s own degree – Getting started (with or w/o a degree) is the biggest first step a trainer needs to make!

Comment on Personal Training Fitness Institute – Common Studies by Super-Trainer

Super-Trainer — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:51:16 +0000

I think that while some education can be useful, these types of schools are there to make money off of you, and can be an excuse for aspiring professionals to not get started in the industry – Sometimes too much schooling can be a bad thing, if it causes you to put off your goals in becoming a trainer -

Comment on The Best Certifications to Consider by Joe Cannon, MS, CSCS, NSCA-CPT

Joe Cannon, MS, CSCS, NSCA-CPT — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 15:40:09 +0000

I agree staying educated is should be of paramount importance. As a personal trainer myself, I feel so strongly about this that I have written my own book Personal Fitness Training: Beyond the Basics where I review not only the essential science topics that trainers need to know but also review those topics in a way that helps trainers educate their clients better. for more information see my website http://www.Joe-Cannon.com or contact me directly

Joe Cannon, MS, CSCS, NSCA-CPT — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 13:20:13 +0000

All of these are excellent points for people to keep in mind! As someone who trains and certifies personal trainers myself I know those who are new to the field have many questions that cannot be adequately answered by an online certification. Also, many health clubs do not accept online certs and will often require that the perspective trainer go for additional certs prior to being hired. This is another good reason to go with an established certification and after that strive to learn as much as possible throughout their career.

Comment on Average Salary of a Personal Trainer by Super-Trainer

Super-Trainer — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:09:38 +0000

Yeah you can definitely get away with charging more if you make sure you take care of things like being professional, on time, etc. Client testimonials and solid referrals tend have the same effect.

As a personal trainer who teaches personal trainers, I can say that NPTI is one of the best certifications out there today. I have no affiliation to NPTI. I say this based on the NPTI trainers I have encountered – which is quite a number of them.
