    Organizations like ACSM offer certifications in many different areas. Some are specific and others more general. I have an ACSM Health and Fitness Instructor certification. Yes, I did have to pass a very lengthy exam and practical to obtain this certification. ACSM in nationally recognized and can get beginners into a fitness club. Some gyms offer specific classes for getting certified. The YMCA that I attend offers aerobic class trainer certifications twice a year, along with others like Pilate’s, water aerobics, etc. I also have a B.S. in Exercise Science. This four year degree allowed me to learn and practice many of the important strategies, techniques and knowledge that is required to be a great personal trainer.
