oh GoldieLocks i'm interested in getting certified in personal training, but right now don't have the funds to go back to college and get another degree. are there any other means of getting certified?

GoldieLocks
12-14-07, 11:47 am
Go online and google "nationally recognized" PT Certs. ISSA, IFPT, NASM, ACE, NSCA, and NESTA are just a few. When researching who i was going with, i ditched all of the $99 certs and looked at those over the $350 mark...you got to think about finding one that will teach you all the things you dont know, create enough interest in your brain, you keep reading the text book, and that can acctually prepare you for dealing with the general public. You'll be working with mostly out of shape, middle aged individuals with naggin injuiries and no motivation at all. Working with Athletes are an 'earned' and coveted position. But they are also broke most of the time, so think about who has funds for a personal trainer...9 times out of 10 they are the executive type. Find a cert that can help you get results for these folks.

Some of these will have weekend workshops. I highly recommed that you make plans to attend these workshops. they review test materials and give you hands on experience, which we all know is better. Online testing is still popular, but i prefer onsite testing.

I have a few and i am again, re-certifing my PT, and grabbing a Sports Conditioing and Sports Nutritional Cert too. Most places will give you a discount (like over $100) if you get two certs at a time. Issa was super cool with me and let me break the payments up. Try to pay as much up front as possible.

There are so many certs out there...be smart not cheap. I took the ISSA back in the day when it was over $600....it's come down quite a bit these days. Be prepared to immediately start to take CEC's (Continuing Education Courses) to keep you cert alive and kicking....you'll be spending an additional $300 per year for CEC's. So, keep that in your budget. (treat this like college courses...take the courses that will further your smarts and give you a well rounded education).

you can first get your CPR card at your local Firehouse. Usually less than $30, and somtimes half that cost. if you dont have one, that's your first step. you'll be required to have that card before you get your Cert, so be ahead of the game.


Good luck and let us know how your search goes!

ThaiFighter

Thanks GoldieLocks, tons of information there!! I guess i'm ahead of the game, i'm EMT certified right now so i have the CPR. i'll be on my search thanks again

Any opportunity I'd get to train with a certified trainer who knows his/her stuff is worth a drive.

Any opportunity to be among focused people who don't yak on their cell phone during a workout is worth a drive.

Any opportunity to learn from others is worth a drive.

Any opportunity to kill myself for two hours in the gym is worth a drive.

Whud up to the fellas in Washington... any of you closer to the Idaho side of things. I'm in Meridian, pretty much walk across the street and I'm in Boise. Never really made a trip to Wash yet so dont know exactly how far it is away in terms of driving time and what not. But there isn't much of a "serious" scene here in Boise at all to be honest. Few roid heads here and there that kinda aimlessly wonder around the gym with no real purpose, and considering I'm bigger and stronger than almost all of em... I have no real drive to play babysitter and try to workout with 'em lol. You guys ever venture through or around Boise or pump anywhere close?

And, to the bra lookin' into getting into personal training... I've been doing it for the past 6 years and just moved up here to get royaly screwed in the ass by Gold's. So, awesome place to pump.. but not so much to work for in my mind. Plus, stick with what dude said about the certs, I was Certified through IFTA and it's about a $275 cert. They didn't even recognize it at all. Plus, to be honest... I hate mainstream fitness as a whole, and I always pretty much ran my own business though just paying a percentage out to a few local gyms I trained at back home... Mainstream focuses mainly on sales, and sales alone. Not my bag, but good luck mayne... it really is awesome to transform someone from a slob to a healthy state of being and watch thier entire view on life change!

Hey there!

WA isn't as bad of a drive, just the winter monts make it kind of a bear.

I'm heading out to Spokane to do some Fitness & Figure Seminars for the NPC in the next couple of months, maybe we can talk about location, and make an Idaho Animal Trip too.

OMG! This got me ROLLING!!!! LOL

E-cup is my town, so i'll be here already, April 18th (friday) is when all the fitness & figure girls compete, i would recommend coming to see not only all of the lovely ripped and shredded ladies, but to get your autographs from the guest posers....90% of the time they attend, and it is LESS hectic when you meet the big boys....

Saturday April 19th is all of the mens & women's bodybuilding....prejudging is usually at 9 or 10, evening doors open early at 6pm...

It's the Largest Amatuer show in the country, located right here in my backyard...Very cool. you'll should get tickets soon to get good seats if you like to sit and watch...sold out every year.

www.craigproductions.com

it's gonna be great to meet all of you. I'll find a nice place for us to throw around some weights. There are the big clubs around town, and just a few miles back there is Evolution Gym. The 2007 Overall E-cup Winner, Nathan DeTracy, owns it. It'll be a great place to hang. www.trainevolution.com

Thanks for the website info, GoldieLocks. I got a band gig Friday evening in Bellingham, but will be down on Saturday 4/19 for the Bodybuilding event and the Vendor Expo if it's still there. I'm hatin' life that I won't be able to see the Ladies' competition...!

Evolution Fitness looks pretty good, too. Good recommendation.

So, are we a chapter, then?


Chapter 1 - The Genesis

In the beginning, Animalpak.com created the Animal Barbell Club. Now the gym was pretty much empty, and darkness covered the free-weight section. And GoldieLocks said "Let there be Seattle Animals," and there were Seattle Animals. And it was good. This was the first day.

Then GoldieLocks said "Let there be a group lift session during the Emerald Cup weekend," And there were attendees. And it was good. This was the second day.

Then GoldieLocks said "Let the Animals be gathered into one place; the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue for the Emerald Cup weekend," And the Animals attended. And it was good. This was the third day.

...to be continued. I have to get back to work.

[yes, I go to church. no, I hope I'm not going to get struck down by the Lord for applying Genesis 1 to the Seattle Chapter.]

Our Thoughts are with you, Kid.

I got a trainer buddy out there in Saudia Arabia for soldiers' 4-day passes....Trainer Travis is his name. You never know, if you get a chance to use one of them, maybe you can go out and get some R & R....this i'm assuming you're out there fighting the good fight...will you be a civilian contractor or front line duty?

I'm on the eastside mostly...Not too sure about downtown...the big clubs, though annoying in their own ways, offers the variety that alot of lifters need. Gold's - Lake forest Park, LA Fitness & Bally's off of Aurora Ave N...etc...

I train in off hours so less likely to be the normal obnoxious crowds....where do you belong now?

Me and TEMPER would like to do something towards the end of november(burn off all that thnx giving food), or the second week of december(before xmas week starts).

TEMPER is going to los angeles the first week of december/I got a snowboarding trip.

And I'm sure everyone will be with their familys the last few weeks of december for the holidays.

That's about all I'm good for on dates.

The next weekend I'll be heading down to oregon. So that's probably the only weekend I can clear snowboarding from the list from. Seeing family and friends the next 2 weekends after.

As soon as enough people are cleared hot for one of the two days, I'll ask temper which gyms are good in tacoma. I saw a huge LA fitness, but dunno if its any good, so I'll check it out.

I liked what we did last time. Meet up at 2-3PM, and eat afterwards.. so because we did back and Bi's last time, I say we do Chest + Calves or Legs on that day.

Time and place still need to be figured out... I'll talk to GoldieLocks, and see what she has going on, if she can make it, maybe we will hit Calloways over in Puyallup, or like jonisocool mentioned, a 24 hour fitness... As far as shirts, you're supposed to bring your own, but I usually bring a couple of my own, as "loaners"...

Missioned failed terribly as I was late on the way to spokane. And mission failed again as I forgot to check it out on the way back.

Best bet is the gym that goldie mentioned, but the 24hr fitness looked nice on their website.

So have we decided for the 24 hr fitness on University way, Tacoma?

If so then everyone needs to goto 24hr fitness's website, find the university way's page, and print out free trial/guest pass.

I'm not dead broke, I can still hit any gym and a meal, but I guess we need to pick out a gym anyhoo.
