Yeah in the end I agree to that with any form of formal certification or education. Experience>all... but still 'accreditation'  ::)

Get a real job.

And worship a real Savior instead of following the "teachings" of an illiterate pedophile.

The address contains a "suite" number   ::)

Ashworth College
6625 The Corners Parkway, Suite 500
Norcross, Georgia 30092
1-800-957-5412


Nothing like a college in a strip mall 

Looks like the kind of "school" Sally Struthers would endorse   "You can major in business management, or accounting"

Ashworth College is a low cost solution for people who cannot afford to go to a public university or don't want to spend 6 figures so that anyone can utilize to fulfil their careers in life.  I still owe 19k on my first degree and I didn't need anymore debt which is why I chose Ashworth

lol only getbig can deliver such useless responses :)

I have a career and not just a job. However bodybuilding is my side hobby :) For heck of it I wondered what kind of certs are recognized or accredited out there on nutrition and training but meh. I personally believe in experience above all else, but I guess no one can give me an answer to the original question oh well.

If you can make side cash as a personal trainer, go for it. Cant hurt. Plus, most gym you train at will let you work out for free.

Back in the day, I remember Coach telling me ACE was a good certification program.

You do realize that credentials are a concept introduced by Jews right?

If you can convince people to give you 60 dollars an hour you are plenty qualified.

Just court fatasses at the gym and in the work place. CERTs aren't worth the money they're printed on, and to pay for the drivel they teach is just ridiculous.

You need a certification so you can get proper Personal Trainer Insurance in the event one of your clients get injured.  In addition, most bank loans for gyms and training studio will require a person to be capable of performing the job...meaning that you'll need a certification.


The big thing of course is to LEARN how to do your job properly.
