The importance of personal trainer credentials

A properly qualified fitness specialist, whether a wellness coach or athletic trainer, designs exercise programs for apparently healthy clients as well as members of special populations.

A poorly trained or negligent personal trainer or fitness coach can cause serious injury to a client. For that reason more and more employers and clients are inspecting a trainer's credentials, generally looking for a bachelor's degree in exercise science or a related field.
