  • im only 11 could i be a trainer

  • Do you need to go to college?

  • @joebob2299 Actually, intelligence isn't dictated by grade-levels. The least intelligent people became great people in this lifetime and still are today. I suggest you read on Sir Richard Branson, or JFK. Only sheeple follow the real,"grand," scheme of things concerning furthering your education and ending up not liking, or being in another field than what you hope for. Finding your purpose is much more fulfilling than doing something you don't like.

  • @JENNAFURpm I'm going to go for one as well. It's not the pay, but marketing. You have to learn how to market yourself well. I suggest reading books on marketing and learn from someone with experience on marketing.

  • I am soon to be a certified EMT, and I am currently waiting to take the NESTA class, I am kind of intimidated about the whole thing, because it is quite a lot to take in over two days, but I am excited to see what it will be like, considering that this is my first job...

  • i really want to be a fitness trainer, but am afraid the pay might be low. does anybody know?and is it possible for you to earn a lot?

  • While it's not difficult to become a personal trainer, and just about anyone can, the difficulty is actually making significant income. It's essential to know how to attract and keep an optimum client base, and it's also essential to find leverage in your business so that your income doesn't stop during the holiday season, or when you take holidays.

  • @franki3Ru550 Sure. If you're 18, and smart. Of course, you only "only finish grade 9 to 10" so you probably aren't smart. Then again, you don't have to be particularly smart to be a fitness trainer-- in the grand scheme of things.

  • im working on my ACE certification :D

  • i have a question? " I only finish grade 9 to 10 i have my highschool certificate could i still become a fitness trainer.
