- Excellence & Integrity in Education
for Over 30 Years!
- Comprehensive Academic Instruction
- Extensive Practical Training
- Most Legally Defensible Personal
Trainer Certification
Since its incorporation in 1978, Fitness Institute has been committed to enhancing
life through sound education in health and fitness. To date, the Institute has
provided for the education and certification of over 5,000 fitness instructors
and personal trainers who in turn have assisted others in improving their personal
health behavior.
To
provide the requisite knowledge base in exercise science and documentation
of such training, Fitness Institute offers a premier program of comprehensive
education and professional certification. Unlike weekend cram courses,
the Institute attracts serious and discriminating students who desire more
than
cursory instruction and meaningless certification – they insist upon
a “first class” education.
Since a certificate
is no more valuable than the training behind it, Fitness Institute subscribes
to a demanding curriculum which is taught by professionals
with graduate degrees in exercise physiology, nutritional biochemistry and
the practice of medicine. Standards are those outlined by the American College
of Sports Medicine and the National Strength & Conditioning Association
which are the recognized authorities within the field of exercise science.
Philosophical and value based concepts are presented within the context of
our American heritage and Judeo-Christian values.
The Institute offers six training courses, each of which is sixty hours in length and extends over a ten week period. Classes meet twice a week for three
hour sessions and are conducted during the days and hours indicated on the ‘Schedule’.
Individuals may take one course at a time, which is recommended for those working
during the day, or may double/triple up on courses, which is frequently the
case with out-of-state and out-of-country students who can devote full time
to study. Each “Specialist” course leads to the award of a certificate and, upon completion of all six courses, the Certified
Personal Training Specialist (CPTS®) credential which is a registered mark..
