AFPA’s New Personal Trainer Certification Is Here—And It’s a Game-Changer

December 23, 2024
By AFPA Fitness

Ready to take your passion for fitness to the next level? We’ve got exciting news: AFPA’s Personal Trainer Certification has been completely revamped, and it’s better than ever. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to advance your career, this new 100% online program is designed to set you up for success from day one.

Here’s why we think you’re going to love it.

Get Certified and Client-Ready—Fast

Forget boring textbooks and endless theory. Our new certification is all about practical, hands-on learning that gets you ready to work with clients immediately. You’ll dive into dynamic video lessons led by industry experts, explore a huge exercise library, and get access to ready-to-use workout programs you can download and apply right away.

And the best part? You can do it all at your own pace. Whether you’re balancing a full-time job, family, or other commitments, this flexible, self-paced program fits into your life.

More Than Just a Certification

At AFPA, we know that being a successful personal trainer isn’t just about knowing the science of fitness—it’s about knowing how to connect with clients and grow your business. That’s why we’ve packed this program with:

  • Coaching and communication skills to help you build trust and guide your clients through challenges.
  • Exercise program templates you can download and use with clients immediately.
  • Real-world business strategies, so you can thrive as a trainer or even start your own business.

As a certified personal trainer for over 25 years, with two decades of running a successful training and sports performance business and the privilege of traveling to over 28 countries to educate trainers, I understand what it takes to succeed in this dynamic and rewarding industry.

The AFPA Certified Personal Trainer course is designed to set you up for success, equipping you with both the foundational exercise science knowledge and the practical skills you need to thrive. From mastering exercise techniques and program design to sharpening coaching cues and communication strategies, this course prepares you to confidently step into your career as a fitness professional.

Becoming a personal trainer is more than just a career; it’s a way to transform lives, inspire healthier, more active communities, and be part of the global solution the world needs. I’m excited to welcome you into this life-changing journey.
