If you're thinking of only working in this field then I would fly down there and try to get a job before I moved. Maybe it's just me. No way would i move and then apply. What will happen to your career as a CPT if no gyms are hiring? What's your backup plan?

And ACE isn't exactly a sure fire bet. It's the lowest rung of the ladder for certs. Getting the best cert you can insures you have more and better info starting out. That knowledge base can give you something solid to start clients with.

No experience, low quality cert, few gyms in town....hmmm. Maybe rethink your strategy?
