Look into getting ACE or NASM certified. Both are good foundations for getting started as a trainer.

Depends which package you buy. The lowest cost one they just send an e-book.

This is why most people go with ACE. NASM is expensive AF. :)



That's Recertify for Life. That's optional, you...

Nice, your husband is WP designer?

Yeah that makes sense. Separate out the content for different audiences.

They don't want PTs giving advice yet they test us on nutrition... :)

Thanks so much for all of this information.

Yup, good advice.

Glad you have gradually moved up in the biz. How much money did you need to open your own gym?

Disagree with this statement. SEO is still useful.

I do agree though that these companies do everything they can to get you on the paid ad platforms. It mostly won't benefit small businesses...

Both are good but you will see NASM is more respected on these forums. I know many trainers that are ACE certified though and are great.



I believe NASM is accepted outside the US as well?

I do it during or I'll forget the numbers. :)
