So You Want To Be A Personal Trainer

It really puts into perspective the type of trainers that are out there!

To help you find a reputable trainer, I compiled a list of recommendations:

1. Education: A personal trainer should be certified through a reputable personal training organization. An exercise science or other related college degree isn't necessary, but the more education your trainer has, the better your workouts will be.
2. CPR: your trainer should have an updated certification in CPR
3. Experience: Make sure your trainer has experience, especially in relation to your goals. For example, if you're a bodybuilder, you want someone knowledgeable in that area.
4. Specifics: If you have a special medical problem, injury or condition (such as heart problems, diabetes, etc.) make sure your trainer will work with your doctor.
5. A good listener: A good trainer will listen closely to what you say and make sure he understands your goals.
   

There are thousands of trainers out there. It is up to you to do the research and ask the questions... otherwise you might be stuck with someone that "Looks Awesome" and "Can Do 100 Push-ups".

As always, Accelerate is here to help you with all of your training needs so you can reach your goals!
