Personal Trainer Career Paper

The purpose of this paper is to show you all the strategies I have gathered to be a professional in the future. I’ve always wanted to help kids and adults that take the sport of basketball serious, by teaching them how to be great and become something special in life. I will be discussing how I can achieve my goals, and what it takes to be a personal/professional trainer which will serve as a road map to my career path. My first goal is to know the education that I need to become a personal trainer. So I gathered up excessive information that will meet my needs. According to http://www.learn.org, Personal trainers get their degree in Kinesiology in order to work with a single person or a group to achieve their goals, and you must have a high school diploma in order to get a degree in Kinesiology. Some businesses may require you to hold a higher education in fitness related fields. Such as an associates or bachelor’s degree. I also thought, “how much does a personal trainer get paid a year?” because in order to become wealthy you need a career job that will help you in the real world. http://www.bls.gov had given me some information for the salary. The median annual wage for fitness trainers in 2016 was $40,000 up to $45,000 in the month of June. It is projected that trainer’s employment will
grow throughout the years. In order to grow you also need a good job security. The BLS projects that the size of the personal training field will grow by 13% in 2022. Also projected to add 33,500 jobs by 2022. Travel opportunities could also help the job security says “www.nfpt.com” by traveling to sporting events with clients so you can maintain that professionalism. Professionals travel around the world so they can make their name big out there. Once you become something special as a trainer, it will motivate others professional trainers to carry on the job security. But many trainers don’t have the time to travel and maintain business at the same time. Which could get them to think about retirement. Retirement has many benefits to a personal trainer.
The ability to work part-time during retirement is one benefit of a healthy lifestyle, according to www.Acefitness.org. It is a very good idea to develop and implement a financial plan so that working during retirement is a choice. Goal setting is a necessity for planning a successful retirement. You need to have the perfect plan once you make the decision of retiring in order to stay wealthy. Once you have been a personal trainer for quite a while, there are only a limited number of options for advancement. There are plenty of job opportunities in the fitness industry. Which can find a career path that matches your
interest. Let’s not forget, “CSUB.Edu” states that personal trainers have many responsibilities for their job. Which are to educate their clients and enforce policies. The policies are to regard safe and proper use of equipment. You also want to develop many workouts that will make your client feel impressed about how much you want them to succeed. Also, provide them with nutritional recommendations. But the main responsibilities are to provide clients with many information that will achieve their goals for their health and fitness. In conclusion, personal trainers are gymnasts who are hired to help their clients achieve a physical goal. Which is why there are so many advantages when it comes to hiring a personal trainer. And I want to be one of the people that will make the fitness industry grow.
