Four certifications: NASM, NSCA, ACSM and ACE.
Secondly, let's talk about the certificate with high recognition in the domestic fitness industry: 1. National professional qualification certificate of fitness coach (issued by the State Sports General Administration); 2. China Bodybuilding Association Professional Fitness Instructor Certificate (issued by China Bodybuilding Association CBBA IFBB International Bodybuilding Federation) 3. The fitness institution's own certificate or the certificate issued by other institutions.
Of course, anyone who has worked as a fitness instructor for several years knows that a certificate is not an added value of a fitness instructor and its practicality is not high. At best, it can only be used as a threshold for engaging in the fitness industry. Because no gym will make your basic salary a penny more than others because you get an extra certificate, and no member will think that your private teaching class is better than others because you get an extra certificate. Factors affecting the salary income of fitness instructors: professional level! Fitness industry is a typical tertiary service industry, which serves middle and high-end people. Therefore, if the fitness instructor major fails, even if it is selling private education, many people will face the risk of dropping out of school. The more professional the fitness instructor, the more obvious the income of members, and their wages are directly proportional to these!
