"Staffing 30 clubs in 7 states with the industry elite is a pretty big undertaking, but I'm certain it can be done with the help of great associations like AAPT.  I'm very excited to bring your graduates to Crunch Fitness. To become a personal trainer, you need come here"

"I just wanted to take a moment to say good job in creating a school to better educate personal/fitness trainers. I am a small fitness company owner in Dutchess County and I run a fitness center in Westchester. The number one issue I come across in hiring new staff is the lack of education. The vast majority of the 'certifications' on the market are worthless. I will look for the AAPT personal trainer certification when hiring."

 What students are saying about AAPT

"I just thought I would let you know how I have got on with getting a job.  I spoke to the HR woman from Equinox on Thursday, who sent my resume through to the Greenwich Ave gym.  They offered me a job on the spot, they are going to fast track me to level three as soon as possible and have said I can bypass the extra classes they make the newbies do as I've already done it with you guys."

"Thanks again for everything - keep in touch!"
 
Lisa Henderson, AAPT graduate
 

"I wanted to let you know that I have officially taken the position of Manager at The Gym at Four Seasons, NH.  Thank you so much for your guidance during my time in NYC.  I have begun training clients at my gym and have been able to put to use, with much success, all of the skills and knowledge AAPT has given me.  The owners of The Gym said that one of the deciding factors of my hire was the fact that I had such a structured education in Personal Training and AAPT rounded an already impressive skill set to an exceptional one.  Thanks again for everything.  I immensely enjoyed my time at AAPT."

"Wish me luck!"

Dave Stiles, competitive cyclist and AAPT graduate

"It has been less than 90 days since Heather and myself have started working at Equinox and we have already begun to feel the initial success...Heather and myself have both won an award at our third monthly meeting.   She received the Most Improved Programmer award and I received Coach of the Month award...Thank you so much - my victory is your victory since you were my educator."
