    National Accredited PT Certifications

    Hello everyone I was trying to get some feed back on the what everyone here thought was the best PT certification to have. I have been researching online but haven't got any real feed back from people that might know. Hope to get some good feed back on this thread. Thanks in advance for replying.

    ACSM and NSCA's are both pretty good, Just go cheap and get the ACE certification. No point in spending 400+ dollars for the other two.

    Thats pretty much it, you can get hired at any gym. If the members there think you know what your are talking about they will flock to you. If you start piping off wrong advice and stupid training schemes then you are pretty much done at that gym.
