Newbie needing some help please.

by Justin
(Rockford, IL)

Hello, I am fresh and ready for personal training.. I just got done wrestling for 8 years, I did well. I love training with other people.

I want to be a personal trainer and I have no idea where to start or what to get schooling. I do not have anyone to talk to about this until I found this forum. Any help is appreciated, I've looked at both colleges near my house and neither of them have degrees or programs for it.

Thank You, Justin

Don't know if you found a way to get your training but I highly recommend NPTI, a SCHOOL for personal trainers, and I believe there is one in or near Chicago. Good luck.
