Today I reached a rare milestone in the fitness industry. 💪
Today marks 16 years as a Certified Personal Trainer.
16 years of continuing education credits/courses to stay on top of the game in my field.
16 years of redoing First Aid/CPR once a year even tho it was valid for 3 years.
Fewer than 1% of trainers are still in the industry 15 years later. Reaching the 16-year mark means surviving multiple economic and industry shifts.
A 16-year veteran has encountered every type of body, limitation, and mindset.
