How to know if a trainer is legit.

If you’ve scrolled through Instagram, YouTube, or Tik Tok, you’ve probably seen tons of different fitness trainers and coaches, but how do you know if a trainer is legit?

Over the years I have watched hundreds of people start selling training and nutrition programs online with ZERO certifications, no experience training real clients, and no supervision.

This is not only misleading, but also dangerous.

Helping guide someone’s training and nutrition is a HUGE responsibility and I don’t take it lightly.

So whether you train with me inside MOVE or choose another plan, here’s why you should make sure it’s with a certified personal trainer.

Why train with a certified personal trainer?

A trainer who is certified through a nationally accredited program such as NASM must take intensive courses and tests to become trained in:

• Basic science exercises
• Science of human movements
• Fitness assessments
• Optimum Performance Training (OPT) program design and model.
• Speed, agility and speed training
• Best practices in nutrition
• Client interaction and professional development

Like many professions, we are also required to complete a certain amount of continuing education to ensure we are up to date with the latest techniques, research and training methods.

I have personally completed over 20 different training specializations including pre and postnatal training, agility, yoga and recently received my new certification as a behavioral Change of experts from NASM.

Not ALL certifications are created equal.

Whether you’re looking for a trainer or getting certified yourself, make sure you find a program that’s nationally accredited.

This is really the only way to be sure it is 100% legal and meets the highest training standards.

The National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) is one of the most reputable and reputable company and where I get my certifications.
