Personal
Trainer Certification & Apprenticeship Program Sets New Standards
in Fitness Industry
What are your personal standards
as a fitness professional and can you list them? How have you
differentiated yourself from the competition? How accountable
are you in your fitness prescription recommendations? How do
you determine the fundamentals (principles) of fitness science
for each client? These are important questions that you need
to ask yourself when investigating a certification institute,
since what you learn will help you to discover the answers.
The International Association
of Resistance Trainers (I.A.R.T.) does not simply offer certification,
but an intensive and critically oriented education experience
that increases value in your clients' minds. Accredited through
the Fitness
Standards Council and the National
Board of Fitness Examiners, the I.A.R.T.'s approach is two-tier.
Students undertake a standardized exam to become a certified
personal trainer, to acquire basic knowledge of fitness science.
Next, they complete in-field assignments to demonstrate full
competency, to achieve the status of Fitness Clinician. This
is similar to a doctor completing residency or a driver obtaining
a learner's permit prior to gaining further experience, testing,
and finally a license. The value you will achieve through this
process is unparalleled with other certification companies.
An Alternative
to Being Only a Certified Personal Trainer!
Do you want a hobby, or a career?
There are enough personal trainers with low standards in this
industry. Our objectives are to:
- Help you understand fitness
science and not just memorize it.
- Obtain greater value through
our hands-on educational process.
- Believe in yourself, to have
confidence in your ability, and to trust your knowledge.
- Feel comfortable in your decision
to make fitness a career in which you can be proud.
For those with the highest ethics
and professionalism, it is frustrating to take a traditional
certification, only to graduate and be compared to those with
far less ability but with equal 'credentials.' The challenge
and standards of our fitness certification and apprenticeship
program will separate you from the 'herd.'
Recognized with the federal government
as an education institute in the field of exercise physiology,
sport nutrition and sport psychology education, we have established
higher standards to help you be all that you can. After all,
being a fitness instructor is not just about memorizing program
design, but understanding the fundamentals of exercise
science so that fitness can be prescribed relative to a unique
individual... whether yourself or a client.
Our textbooks and programs are
based partly on 20-years of study and $90-million in research
and development, in conjunction with the University of Florida
and MedX Corporation. Moreover, we conduct our own research at
our testing and performance center, Fitness Logistics,
which data integrates into our resources. Likewise, our instructors
learn to become 'fitness researchers and scientists' and not
merely a personal trainer, by way of intensive application in
client case study development and implementing 'the scientific
method' of investigation.
