Criteria for becoming a professional fitness instructor
It is definitely better to have international certification, followed by domestic coach training institutions and national vocational qualification certification. Of course, there are some big-name stars who don't have these three items, but Xiao Bai probably won't have such luck. ACE, NSCA, ACSM and NASM, the four major certifications in the United States, are relatively common and have high gold content. They require the coach to be in a learning state at any time and complete a batch of new courses every two years, otherwise the license will be invalid. In high-end gyms, coaches are almost one of the four international certifications, and their quality is still very high.

National professional qualification certification, just like accountants need to take the accountant examination and employment requirements, has no supervision and no requirements for continuing education, so don't take it too seriously. In addition, the awards of related international large-scale competitions can also be referenced, and there are too many domestic awards to be ignored.

The second thing to pay attention to is the background experience of personal fitness instructors.

Personal fitness instructors usually have three backgrounds: graduated from sports schools, fitness enthusiasts and veterans. Newcomers who have just graduated from sports schools lack practical experience and cannot provide better solutions for different users. Fans may practice well, but they rely more on their own experience and may lack systematic theoretical knowledge. Veterans work hard and are cruel to people. They are more suitable for lazy students, such as losing weight.

Experience includes two points: teaching duration and personal sports experience. Coaches, like doctors, rely on understanding and practice, and it is useless to talk on paper. I have seen many cases, so I can judge the problem quickly and accurately, do training and think of more flexible solutions. Therefore, coaching experience should match personal needs as much as possible, and take fewer detours.

The third depends on personal image.

At least there are obvious training marks, and the muscle outline can be seen clearly. Tall figure, broad shoulders and chest, overall superior to ordinary people. How can you trust him to teach you when you stand up greasy and have no symmetrical figure?

An excellent coach has high demands on himself in order to present a better state in front of his members. He should be self-disciplined and positive.

Fourth, see if you are distracted.

First look at the sense of responsibility, followed by professionalism. The performance of distraction is simply a high degree of personal customization and serious responsibility. Playing mobile phone in a daze, the same hard pull squat push chest, tell you that heavy weight is good, it is recommended to change people quickly. Before your formal training, did you take the initiative to understand your sports reasons, injury history, sports history, sports hobbies, eating habits, and support from family and friends? Just like falling in love, will he take the time to get to know you and listen to you?

The training plan is from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, and slowly but surely. Every class has preparation in advance, physical communication before class and training records after class. He has done "teaching by example" in every movement, paying attention to the key points of safety and avoiding injury, explaining the skills and clarifying the goals and reasons of the movement. When you do movements, you will always be around to protect you, correct your movements and flexibly adjust your training plan.

In addition, there is a very important performance of daydreaming, that is, he keeps learning, has a learning heart and keeps breaking through, which is also the performance of his love for fitness. Fitness enthusiasts love communication, which is actually a kind of learning.
