Sample Book Insights: #1 Consider what a certification is good for before you spend your valuable education dollars on it. Personal training is an unregulated industry, which means that your 90-year-old grandmother can say she’s a personal trainer. #2 The best personal trainers have the knowledge and passion to provide a high-quality service. A certification can be a means to get your foot in the door. Many gyms won’t hire you without one. #3 A certification will not prepare you for training clients. To do a good job, you must have lots of practical and varied experience. Finding a place to work that allows you to grow is important. #4 There are two types of insurance that you should consider: liability insurance, which will cover you if your client gets hurt in an accident, and professional liability insurance, which will cover you if you're negligent or overstep your boundaries.
