It's easy to fall into the trap of assuming that the best personal trainers are the ones who could grace the cover of a fitness magazine. But we’d like to challenge that notion. What truly makes a personal trainer exceptional?
When we talk about fitness goals, the term ‘body composition’ often arises, sometimes interchangeably with ‘losing weight.’ However, as fitness professionals, we understand that body composition encompasses far more than a number on a scale. It refers to the ratio of various components within the body, including water, muscle, fat, tissue, and bone. Defining this term is crucial because it guides our approach to exercise training and nutrition, ensuring that we tailor programs to meet our clients' specific needs and goals.
Are you passionate about fitness and eager to inspire others on their wellness journey? Do you thrive in a group environment, motivating and energizing others to achieve their fitness goals? If so, then becoming a Group Exercise Leader (GEL) might just be the perfect fit for you. And with AFHP's comprehensive GEL course, your path to certification has never been more accessible or rewarding.
