*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
If you are thinking of becoming a personal trainer, the process is not hard, but you will want to be sure that you are really cut out for this profession. First of all, you have to have the right attitude. You will need to be able to enforce things with your clients without being too harsh. You also need to have patience and be easy to talk to as well as have good listening skills.
Anyone can be a personal trainer no matter what shape they are in, but think about it, you wouldn't really want someone who is out of shape themselves trying to instruct you on how to get in shape. Therefore, it is important for your image as a personal trainer that you are in good physical shape. You will also need to have good motivational and analytical skills and enjoy working with many different kinds of people.
Once you have decided if you have these qualities, and you still want to start the process of becoming a personal trainer, you will need to get a certification. The rest of this article will take you through the process of getting certified and help you on your way.
Choosing Your Certification
The first step of getting certified is to choose which type of certification you want. There are many different certifications available. They all have different requirements and costs. You will want to check them all out and find out the costs of the programs and also what is available in your area. You will want to choose a certification that fits with your skills and where you want to go with your career.
There are many organizations that offer certification programs. Be sure that the one you choose is nationally accredited. You can check out the websites of these organizations to get answers to most of your questions.
Something for you to think about is getting a specialty certification. This is not a requirement, but would be a great career booster. It gives you more to offer your clients and also allows you to make more money from your services.
Get a Job
Find out what fitness clubs in your area employ personal trainers. This can be done by calling or visiting their websites. Getting yourself a job will give you even more experience and give you a start on making a name for yourself as a personal trainer.
Continue Your Education
You will want to always stay educated in your field. This is necessary in order to keep your certification. There are many ways to get these required credits. You can probably get them from the organization from which you got certified. If not, there are other organizations out there that can help you with this. It is also a great idea to join a national organization to improve your skills and attend personal trainer seminars and workshops on a regular basis. Remember, the more training you have, the more you have to offer your clients. Just becoming a personal trainer and getting certified is no guarantee that you will have a lot of clients. You will want to do everything you can to improve your business and show people that you are great at what you do.
