Hi!
Are free studying materials still available?
Hey Maria, absolutely there are pretty study materials for ISSA, NASM, ACE and CSCS all on my website.
I’l check it out, thank you!
Send me or what is the cheapest and easiest way to become a personal trainer
Hey Walter, I definitely recommend checking out my article on the easiest personal training certifications or the list on the cheapest personal training certifications.
Hi Coach Tyler,
Thank you for the really informative and detailed breakdown of all the courses available. I’m wondering if the courses can be taken online, out of US/Canada? I’m trying to register for the NASM CNC, but am unable to do so as I cannot select any country other than US/Canada as my billing/shipping address.
On that note, would also like to ask you, if it is possible to take the CPTs online by ourselves if I’m not located in US/Canada? Or do I have to go under a local institution to do it? Thank you!
In regards to taking the certification outside of the United States or Canada, definitely you will have to check their website but I do know that there are locations all around the world. The other option is to take one of the certifications online but all of the NCCA accredited certifications you will need to go into a testing facility.
Great writing help a lot.
Thanks!
Thanks Zafar.
This article is good and help to clear confusion.
Hey Zafar, glad you found value in the article. Thanks.
