Great educational certification. I am enrolled at Miami Dade College for Exercise Science and this is the certification that they recommend for Personal Training certification. It is a wealth of knowledge taught by some of the best trainers in Miami, including Pro bodybuilders and Fitness experts. My instructor was a top level Tri-athlete that competed in national bodybuilding competitions with degrees in Exercise Physiology from FIU. They may not have the recognizable name as the others, but you can't compare an online class to real in-person instruction and demonstrations from true professionals in the industry.
