I have been thinking about becoming a personal trainer, however, I do not know where to start! I know absolutely nothing about personal training...I just know that I love working out and motivating people, so I thought this would be a great career for me. So, I know their are different ways to get certified, but I do not want to choose the cheesey route. I am going to list a few questions, if anybody can help answer one or more, I would truly appreciate it!
1. What is the name of the basic(?)personal training certificate?
2. Is their a "best" way to go about getting this certificate? (i.e. community college, some well known program or?)
3. In order to work at a gym, do you just need this "basic" certificate to start?
4. I saw an online certification program called "NESTA;"should I run from this program?
Anybody w/experience...I need a bit of info.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
