I did my practical last night - thank you neighbor Collette for pretending to be "Gail". I felt extremely comfortable with you so it made the exam that much easier! As the title says I got 98% and I am officially a certified personal trainer. I feel really good about myself!
I have my first "staff" meeting at Aeroflex on August 16th. I'm not even really nervous about starting, just excited! I think this is what I was meant to do. It's hard not to jump into the industry full force because there is so much opportunity and demand. I could have worked at World Health Club in Edmonton - just didn't fit my schedule right now, plus your wage is based on how many pkgs you "sell". I don't want to "sell" anybody fitness....I just want to help them and encourage them. I think Aeroflex will be a perfect fit. I think I'll turn my "fitness journey" blog into my "personal trainer" blog.....then you can still follow along as I go.
Thanks to everyone who cheered me on, my husband and kids, friends and family.
Hugs,
J.

Yay for you Jaime.
had no doubt that you would do well. Deciding not to 'sell' fitness was a good choice people have to want to look after themselves and be fit. Its not like you are selling them a car. . your clients have to choose to commit to themselves. . .
best wishes. .
Jaime,
Good for you! You'll be an inspiration for people. Enjoy your journey and put the best of yourself into your clients.
I have no doubt where I will refer any Edmontonian friends when they need a trainer!
Good luck!
