Awesome! My trainer had a cert 3 & 4 in fitness. Woo hooo!
Then they were just a commercial gym PT... which makes them useless
Quals don't mean very much. I don't really care what quals someone has, and would certainly choose a good trainer without quals than a bad trainer with. But... it's their choice in quals that demonstrates their line of thinking.
Eg1, been in the industry a few years and just have cert3/4 sounds like they dont give a damn.
Eg2, been in the industry a few years and have ASCA, AWF, NCAS... both people in the industry same duration but one cares about their development and wants to get things that are specific to the people they train.
Hmm i'm rambling, i'll stfu now
