I have decided to change my career path since I find so much enjoyment in health, fitness, and bodybuilding.I plan on taking a few specialized courses to broaden my knowledge but would like some advice from professionals that have been in the field.

Out of the two you mentioned, I would go with ACE. If I were looking at two trainers solely based on certifications, I would pick the trainer who has ACE over ISSA. That obviously is not taking many other factors into account. I would also suggest NASM.

Hi Clint,

I want to make another pitch for NASM. One of the things I like about them is that they have several specialty certifications that all integrate into their OPT model and form one coherent entity.
