Why Hire an Accredited Certified Personal Trainer?
What is accreditation?
Accreditation is a process that provides a benchmark, additional value to a degree or specialty. For example, you would not hire an attorney that did not pass the bar exam. While attending a college is helpful in this case, the only way to practice law is to pass the bar exam. The same is true with the fitness industry. American Council on Exercise (ACE) is one of two (out of 300) certifying agencies that are accredited. I am an ACE professional and as such I am required to continually train and educate myself to maintain my accredited certification. For more information on the accreditation process, go to NOCA.org |

Why hire an accredited personal trainer?
Anyone can become certified, but few choose to raise the standards in our industry by going the extra mile to become accredited. Do you want just anyone to train you and risk injury? No. To receive a safe, effective workout that is free of injuries, choose a professional trainer that is knowledgeable and stays on top of the constant changes in the industry. Many trainers in this community are trained in a public gym by employees with no skills or knowledge, through the Internet or weekend workshops. It is proven that fitness enthusiasts trained in these scenarios are not qualified to train others seeking a personal trainer. In this community, there is a need for qualified professional personal trainers. There are many local trainers that try to align themselves with knowledgeable, respected fitness professionals or programs to increase their credibility. In doing so they either misrepresent their certifications, or misuse their trademarks, thus misleading their prospective clients. There are very few here in this community that are qualified personal trainers. While appearing in the local paper may be flattering, fitness professional it does not make! Don’t settle! You are worth more than that! Maximize your results! Hire the professional personal trainer other fitness enthusiasts and trainers consult, Elizabeth Burnett!
