Can I complete a personal training certificate in a month?!
Question: Can I complete a personal training certificate in a month!?
I am looking to get personal trainer qualified!. I have been working out for 8 years, so I am not completely ignorant to fitness!. Is a month long enough to prepare for an certification exam!? I am thinking of getting certified through ACE of NASM!. Any suggestions on which is better!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I am going through ACE and i was hoping to get certified in about 3 months and well that didn't happen!. there was too much information to go over!. the test is 3 hours long so you can imagine how much info you would have to know to pass it!. besides, if you're going to be a personal trainer you should really actually know what you are doing!. your're putting other peoples bodies in your hands and so if you dont know what you're doing, you could seriously injure them!. i would suggest taking as long as you think you need to study before trying to get certified!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I am in the same situation as you and also looking to get certified!. From checking some weight lifting forums it seems like its doable in a month!. Apparently you just need to get the book and study and take the test without taking any classes for most certifications!. From what I have heard NASM is one of the most respected ones!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
im from australia so i wouldnt know which ones better!. as for a month only, no!. It should take a minimum of 3 months per cert, it doesn matter if u know the stuff alredi, u have to attend the classes and do the assessments! If u find a provider who does a cert in 3 months then your pretty lucky!Www@Answer-Health@Com
