Training regularly but no progress?
You need one or more of these: more food, more weight, more reps or more rest.

i want to be the same thing, a trainer for pro athletes. you need a degree, end of story. kinesiology is what i will be applying for soon, i think that is the best choice as an undergraduate. think science, because if you don't like it there is 0% chance of training at that level. professional organizations won't even look at anything less. much work must be put in to achieve this goal!

No this isn't like personal training, the average personal trainer really knows that MUCH less than someone who has a degree in kin. And yes you do learn to train all kinds of athletes, the science behind it. These certifications like ISSA are laughable compared to the stuff you learn in a sports science degree. Not even with a phys. ed degree will you get a chance because you don't touch on the sciences enough.
