Author Topic: I am a certified Personal trainer - test yourself (Read 28761 times)

Unreal I was bored and watching White Collar and decided to see about the personal training certifications and how easy they are to get. I saw that Goodrum so boldly brags about his certification so I Googled AMFPT and found there website and this other one which is exactly like his.

There are 100 questions multiple choice. So I decided to take the test while watching TV and eating a bowl of Rasberry Sherbert (tghe best way to get certified). Unreal but I got an 81% and passed and all I had to do was pay them and that's all it took. Now, before you go all jack Lalane on me, I didn't pay.

I just wanted to see how easy it was to get the certifications that Goodrum has. He doesn't have the second one. I did NO studying and guessed on I would say maybe 20 of them. But I passed and now have the same qualifications as Goodrum. The only difference is I have actually spent 20+ year going to a gym and know how to lift, a National and World title, training with some of the biggest names in the industry and having some muscle and strength. Sorry Goodrum your certifications don't mean shit.

Take the test and see how well you can do

Paying the nominal fee and getting "certified" thus allowing you to put those ridiculous letters next to your handle would be icing on the cake, Keith.

I can't find the link I got for the other test. It is for the AMFPT. It almost the same questions. I jsut can't believe you can get a certification that easy without studying. And I guessed on some of the questions.

noworries · « **Reply #7 on:** July 28, 2010, 09:33:41 PM »

Man I must be really bored. I haven't taken a test in years. I knwo Goodrum will come back and say the Master trainer Certification is harder. I would have got 100% if I wanted to use google for anwers

Well , you only pay when you pass, so i think it took at least a whole week for Goodrum to get that license!

I bet he was doing the test for 7 days straight until he passed.

These are his credentials he lists on his website. I have a feeling all of them you can get online. The AMFPT certs are only $79 or so.

Ashworth college is an online degree. Online schools give out degrees to anyone who pays. Hence, why Goodrum received a "degree" from there.

Oh I'm gonna give it hell in the morning time, I already got my coffee pot timer set.

Actually I got bored during the test and just starting pressing "b"s and "c"s...that might have had something to do with it as well.

That just goes to show you how pathetic the test is. Even with random guessing, you can still come close to passing lol
