Personal trainer? I am certified with ISSA and it was a joke....

first they send you a huge book that you won't read so you say "fuck that" and take some online quizzes which you can retake if you fail.

then they give you a written test to build a simulated workout program and they "grade it" but know this, they will pass you unless you leave questions blank and are stupider than a sack of wrenches.

next every 2 years or so they try to charge $80 for recertification and try to fuck you over with requiring CME credits (which they offer courses for...) + you need to be uptodate in CPR.

dogboston's overall score for ISSA: 0/10
