Life Time Fitness is the single largest employer of personal trainers in the country and we have learned a lot during that time. We understand that individuals typically chose a career in personal training because of a passion to help people with their health and fitness or a personal life changing experience.
Even individuals with a passion for personal training do not always succeed. High turnover still plagues this industry because traditional education or certifications, do just that...certify or educate, they do not prepare you to work in the industry.
Life Time Academy separates itself from other industry certifications by providing you the practical experiences, led by industry professionals, to be successful in your career. When you graduate from the Academy, you are not only NASM certified, but you are now a personal trainer!
