It was offered at my massage school for free to be a nice supplemental cert. Along with my massage, so I couldn't pass it up. It was a promotional thing that I got it for free. Trying to get into exercise more too so thought it'd be a good background to have. Excited!
And yes the trickling action is pretty awesome lol.
Sounds cool! I'm with ACSM which is the one that sets guidelines for every other training cert, used mostly by the medical/clinical community. It's challenging material and definitely takes a long time to study for. Preparing for an ACSM cert test by december would be hard work but do-able. ACSM, ACE, and NSCA are the only professional level ones (I think I am missing one though), hopefully you are getting one of those! There are a lot of CPT/CFT certs out there that are a joke, took a long time to sift through the bad onesHit me up if you have any questions, I've gone through the whole process
Hey! They're getting us prepared to take the ACE, so I think it'll work out ok. It's the first time this school has offered a pt course, so they're still kinda working out the kinks. Hopefully the end result will be good. Are you liking it?
