personal training for me?

[brentonwool]

I wanted to see what kind of advice you had for someone like me who is about to finish up their army duty and going back to school. the military is already going to pay for my degree in fitness, but i want to personal train. Who on here is a personal trainer? what kind of tips can you give me for when i graduate?

I suggest you check Dave Polumbos training certification, he actually teaches you real life skills.

nasm, ace and acsm are places i would recommend... you want to get a REPUTABLE certification... there are other good options but these are the most recognized where you can damn near get any job by having these particular certs... you need to learn all the aspects of it... selling yourself is a major part of that... clients dont just magically fall into your lap so marketing and selling are a big part of it

Get a side job to pay for the PT qualification. It's not the same as a fitness degree (whatever that is)

it may end up being just a side hustle in the end. the competition is insane in the industry. everyone wants to be a personal trainer.

while you are in school you can easily get some work at gyms near you and from there build a clientale

It is a very tough career to make any money unless you find a way to stand out. Anyone can get these certifications. Look at your gym and I bet half of them are out of shape. It comes down to how good you really are and your marketing skills.
