Masseur_at_Play wanted to know:


I’m in Texas where requirements for becoming a personal trainer is rather low, anyway, I’m slender and fit and enjoy isometrics, weightless exercises, and water aerobics, and was wondering if I wanted to be able to train in those areas if I need to find a certification class that covers them and what is the easiest way to go about finding such a course. I’ve been told that a lot of personal trainer programs for certification is like going through a boot camp, is this true?
stu: as there are many different people of which different exercise programs work best for each one, I’m only concerned about what I like and those who are interested in what I like, I can’t be everything to everyone and don’t desire to be, I’d rather specialize and enjoy what I do and help those with similar goals… by becoming broad I’m actually becoming no different than anyone else

    Masseur,

    I think you should learn all about becoming a PT, this way you can decide what is best for your client, not just what you like to do. As a personal trainer you have to realize, that what works for you might not work for others. Everyone is different, thus they thrive off of different types of exercises.

    Hope this helps,
    Stu
