But your exercise knowledge will give you a leg up, but they will likely expect you to follow the exercise programs they lay out, not create any on your own.

But it might be different in California!
Thanks Julie! That's pretty much the job description I've found in all the web searches I've done. I think they have a seperate wellness/fitness program that they just recently started, so maybe they'll want to involve me in that. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Everything is different in California!
