Do you think a personal trainer should be also a good salesman:No, I believe that a trainer should be the link that bridges the gap between science and application. When I think of a salesman all I see are persuasive individuals with dollar signs in their eyes. Trainers must care about the industry as well as each individual they help. In this field of exercise science in most cases we are dealing with the physiological processes of life, therefore you have to care for life itself.
What other skills do you bring to the table besides your training experience:Other than training experience I firmly believe in practicing what you preach. Anybody can regurgitate information from a book or class, but where I separate myself is I am still a competitive athlete. Most of my training experiences I have or still practice currently. I stay up to date with current science based information from highly acknowledge sources. I continuously help and volunteer in multiple lab setting events at my alumni college.I strive to stay active and involved in this industry.
In general, please describe your experience:I graduated with a Bachelor degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Fitness, Nutrition and Health. During my studies I worked in the adapted PE lab, after school program for kids and volunteered with the National Disability Sports Alliance. Following graduation I began working with individuals doing sport specific training and rehabilitation for athletes and non-competitive clients. Concurrently I trained a variety of private clients focus on optimal health health enhancements.
