Special Populations Exercise Specialist Certification
Special Populations Clients Need Your Help!
Did you know almost 20% of the clients that personal trainers work with fall into a special populations category, but only 1% of the personal trainers in the United States are properly qualified to work with these populations?
Most personal trainers don’t care about doing the research to ensure their clients are getting a medically approved and safe exercise program. This is a huge issue that is leaving people at risk for unsafe exercise programs, injury and even death.
Are you willing to better yourself for the purpose of helping others and increasing your reach toward the special populations clientele?
As the older population continues to grow, there is an extremely high demand for trainers that understand the process of what it takes to work with these conditions, through critical program modifications. It’s time to address this need by targeting this unattended-to niche, all the while building your business.
This program provides the credential to work with many types of clientele that struggle with finding a qualified Special Populations Exercise Specialist.
Its time to increase your value as a personal trainer and become a Special Populations Expert which will allow you to help hundreds of people and attract the clientele you need to build your fitness business.
This type of knowledge will lead to the best possible results for your clientele as it will create consistent goal achievement with an emphasis on safe and effective exercise.
Over the last 15 years working with special populations in the health and fitness industry and over 10 years as a college professor, Eddie Lester, the founder and CEO of Fitness Mentors, has created and used the techniques presented in this course to assist thousands of personal trainers in creating the types of programs that lead to the achievement of optimal health through safe special populations guidelines.
