    Really appreciate the video, a whole lot of info. Dumb question but I’m going to ask it. When you mean 20 hours of continuous education does that require school work? So like every year I’m required to do at least 20 hours of certification training/schooling? Would that include just taking like an anatomy class at my local community college? Thanks much

    I am basically looking to acquire knowledge (and get certified) so that I can design (fitness & weight loss) home workouts for virtual training and TH-cam channel. I do not have any related education but have 15 yrs of experience of workouts. Could you suggest me any course that comes at a reasonable price? I’d like to do it more for passion than profession.

    Do the physical text books come with a mail in exam?

    • @bane3991
      @bane3991 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      NASM you have to go to a certain place to take the exam since you're monitored. ISSA you can either take in online or pay additional money for them to send the test to you through the mail. It makes much more sense to take it online.

    Can you do a video on ISSA PT course vs thr fast track 4 week course ? Im assuming its alot of info crammed into the 4 week course

    • @Ptpioneer
      @Ptpioneer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yes of course, the four-week fast track is definitely a lot of information to learn for anybody studying to become a personal trainer. I would only recommend this path if you are not working or studying anything else during those four weeks.

    I personally know of Trainers who self educated themselves in this field and will put many of the fitness certifications to shame, I know on Trainer personally who studied for the Physical Therapist Exam and pass it so he could easily get Allied Medical Referrals, smart move, I also know of two Trainers in my city that's never been certified and put hundreds of people in top shape, I seen some of their training and to my amazement, it defies all the SAID Principles.

      Reading through the NASM website today (3rd August 2021) it says "We've also recently extended the NASM brand with Premier Global, the certification and personal training course leader in the United Kingdom. Together, NASM and Premier Global are setting a new benchmark in fitness qualifications for our UK Candidates". So from that I would say you could now definitely use it in London. I was looking into it because I live in London but would like to do a course which would allow me to use the certificate overseas and NASM is what a personal trainer recommended to me when I asked him about it today
