When I was in about Grade 10, I would tell people that I wanted to be a personal trainer and everyone would be a little surprised. Especially since I didn't have a clue about working out at this age. I went to University forgetting about this idea I had of being a personal trainer. Then my sister reminded me of it this summer. So I went for it! At the time I was really big into working out, nutrition and was on my own journey of losing weight and getting healthy.
It was a lot of hard work and long hours of studying at night while working a full time job. But it was so worth it! Last Wednesday I passed my finals and am now a Certified Personal Trainer.
Its official! I have my personal training certificate and my associates with an Emphasis in Health Science. It has been a little bit of a dream come true and I can't wait to share my passion with the world. In February I start my pregnancy class, and within the year I will be a Women's Specialist, specifically in pre and post natal health!
Hi Martha,
ReplyDeleteI am a friend of your husbands and saw a link to your blog from his facebook page. I really like your blog, it's inspiring. I have a bachelor's degree in health science from BYU-I,but interested in getting certified in personal training as well.
I had a few questions for you. How long did it take for you to get certified, how much did it cost, do you feel like you learned a lot from the course or is most of your knowledge from other sources? Thanks!
I seldom expect much from online informational content these days, but you really got my interest. I think this is some of the best, most unique informative article I have ever read. I’m truly impressed.
