At long last I have finally bitten the bullet and done it. I have registered to become a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT). With the help of my trusty friend "Google" I have researched for countless hours on countless websites to uncover the best program for me. And with the encouragement and always unpredicted random income and random discount findings from my husband (God's blessing upon his life never ceases to amaze me) I was able to click the button into a world of new beginnings just this morning.
I have signed up with the American Council on Exercise (ACE). Some of you may have heard of it. It's one of the top CPT's in the world accredited by the NCCA (National Commission for Certifying Agencies).
I'm scared. I'm worried I will study, and then fail. I'm scared I won't be able to get any experience or won't be able to find a job, or perhaps that I will end up not liking it. But I'm also stoked. I have been dreaming of this day for, really, most of my adult life. Ever since graduating high school it's been a goal of mine, and I'm not sure why I ever waited so long to do it. It's going to be a long journey, a hard journey, and one where I will have to put in a lot of independent, self-motivated studying, but I am so excited to finally begin something I really and truly care about, and always have. I really have no idea what I'm doing or what I'm getting myself into, but I will figure it out as I go.
More updates will come as I move along, here, but I just wanted to share the good news!
My books come next week...
