    The most recognized PT Cert?

    Hello what is the best one to get? Im thinking of being a PT part time. Thanks.
    2012 was a year of on and off training due to miss-hap's. I had broken ribs,pulled something under my shoulder blade. Then had a total hip replacement. Got soft around the edges. Now time for a comeback. 1st year in. So far things are going great!!
    April 11th 2014 double bypass surgery. So another set back grrrrrr.

    If The Bar Ain't Bending... You're Just Pretending.

    There is no pill or shake. That can replace hard work.

    short version- NSCA, ACSM, or NASM. ACE would even be ok

    More or less this. NSCA, ACSM, or NASM if you're going to dish out the $$$ imo. Nothing wrong with ACE but some people look down on it, not so much the other 3.

    If you stick ACSM, NSCA ACE or NASM I think you would be fine. Since you said you wanted to work part time, you need to know that you will have to work to get these certs. Do read this post I wrote for more info http://www.joe-cannon.com/best-perso...asm-acsm-nsca/
