Thank you for the summary.

CEU study material every two years?
Excellent breakdown of the differences. I've written chapters for both NASM and ACE, worked for ACE directly for 5 years (I was one of the creators of the IFT Model) and have been a part of the exam development process. 1) here's a secret, according to the ICE guidelines neither organization can ask questions about their proprietary info (meaning NASM can not ask questions specifically about the OPT Model). you can use ANY exercise phys text to study for the exams. 2) NASM is owned by a publicly traded, for-profit company. ACE is a 501(c)(3) not for profit entity; profits from NASM go into shareholders pockets; profits at ACE go to programming and to provide employee benefits. It's your $$$ you can choose how it's spent. 3) ANY certification is just a foundation; to be a truly exceptional fitness professional it's important to commit to lifelong learning.
Nice, this is the difference that helped me to choose! Thanks!
Thank you for the great explanation.
I spent the last few months listening to this youngster "Eddie Lester" lol and his voice is now etched in my brain. I am what some of you would call a senior citizen (ok I'm a senior over almost 70). I failed the Ace exam first time around for many reasons, but what I found out was that I was an audio learner more so than reading. Listening to Eddie making "it do what it do" I would contributed to me passing the 2nd go around... thanks Eddie .. As far as which is better, I would place ACE at the top because of the commitment to "rapport", if I learn anything other than to know chapters 7 and 8, it would be that you must get a rapport with your clients if you want them to adhere and continue. It was an experience I will not soon forget... I BE DAM the old man is a personal trainer lol, and I know what I am doing and suppose to do.. thanks ACE and thanks Eddie.
charles felder congratulations
Hi, Charles - great to read that someone older is doing this. I am 65 and have been strength training for about four years. I want to work with seniors. Anyone out there have a recommendation on certification for someone like me? Thanks!
Thank you! This video was extremely helpful. I am scheduled to sit for my NASM CPT exam in two weeks ((yes, I’m totally ready) and I have considered going for both certifications.
Knock that test out.
I'm thinking about taking the course, but I don't know how the Market will look after this crisis
Yo you pass bro?
Is the exam just only multiple choice questions? Or do you have to write essays ?
Great explanation. Only thing that I would change is dump the music because it feels like a competition on who is going to stand out.
this music took my attention away
Yeah it’s LOUD
I used the Ace Book when I went throught the WITS program first as I was going through college for MyDegree in Exercise Science > The First gym I was hired by required either NSCA or NASM within a year of my getting hired regardless of my original CERT and college education. Comparing the 2 from my experieanceonly because it is possible ACE got better , ACE is just slightly a step Above AFFA which is a joke cert that body builders take. NASM gives you a better understanding of how the human body responds to exercise and the pitfalls of clints living in the sendaentary 21st century. They give lip service to FUnctional Training and corrective exercise compared to NASM.
maybe turn down the music, but hard to hear but good video otherwise
This was very helpful, thank you!
Thank you for this very helpful and informative video! Sometimes it’s hard to find videos that get straight to the point on RUclips. 👍👍
Your videos are friendly and professional. While some others are just professional. . . .
So I believe I get more from Fitness Mentors that other online videos.
I made my CPT with NASM but when I did my exams was always 70% mark to pass the exams and 90% mark to pass the assessments, which I had 88% overall, and I paid 1390 GBP, with discount, probably in the UK they work different, but all you sad about the course it's pretty much that. I never heard about to have to recertificate, is that only in the USA or everywhere?
Great video! No water under the bridge, appreciate the explanation between the two. Thank you!
Great vid. I’ll be ready to take a CPT course soon. My choices were between ACE and NASM. This vid has helped me make my decision. Thank you.
Kirby Augustine what did u chose
Tameem Jamal he left us hanging
And it became 4 yrs now haha

I will be going NASM first. Thank you for the information.
Thank you so much for this. Very helpful.
This was SUPER helpful! Thank you!
Thank you so much. Very informative

Nice video thank you :)
Are these the only way to become personal trainer or are there other academies too that offer face to face classes
ACE makes this way more difficult than it has to be. They overload you with too much scientific information and it becomes overwhelming. I would not suggest ACE. I am having to constantly youtube videos to understand concepts because they don't explain things in a simple manor. I wish I'd known this before spending $1,000 on this program.
Our Audio Lectures for the ACE CPT really help to teach you the most important information to be successful as a CPT and also be successful on the exam. Check them out here: www.fitnessmentors.com/ace-cpt-exam-audio-lectures/
Hey, is NSCA-CPT WORTH IT?
I want to be work with athlets in the future so might take up CSCS.
Whats your opinion about NSCA-cpt?
Music didn't ruin the video . It's fine
$41K for all the work required to be personal trainer........NOT EVEN CLOSE.....to being enough. I would of thought $50K average..... If you’re good figured $75K-$100K. And if you are in select markets $100K-$250K.
You got 24k views on a video and you stopped making videos?
I have both
David Arthur mind share the experience?
awesome video music made me wanna do a posedown lol
Why the music bro ✌️
What are your thoughts about NSCA and NCSF?
Also do you recommend to get a certificate if we want to be independent? Can we just read the book?
Thanks
Hi!
NSCA has fallen off the map a bit and they haven't done any revisions on their education in quite a while. (They still have the best Strength Training Cert CSCS). Im not very familiar with NCSF.
If you are looking to be independent the Fitness Mentors CPT focuses on the business side of training more, which is the most important aspect of a private trainers education. Learn more here: www.fitnessmentors.com/personal-trainer-certification/
Cheers!

ACE is good NASM is too scientific for no reason
Dear sir
I'm certified from NASM having one year experience from local gym, can you please suggest me the ways which can help me to get US work permit as a personal trainer...( I'm Pankaj from india )
U can't get us work permit unless you go and study there
Pankah Im from the US. But trying to work work in korea in Japan
I used to be an international student in USA, you are NOT allowed to work with F1 visa (student visa), so you bascially need working visa or Green card. however you will get to work after you finish your school and get a OPT which gives you a time to work for about 1-3 years depending on your major..
@@kharithorpe4854 i am from Korea and i got a green card in USA, totally opposite lol
و عن issa ؟؟؟
Hello
I need help i just finished the course for nasm but i do not feel ready.
Noah De Santi we can definitely help you! Check our our study materials here: www.fitnessmentors.com/nasm-cpt-exam-audio-lectures/
I want a Fitness Mentor Really Bad. I am living in Japan, and love learning foreign languages, and meeting people from all over the world. What I want to change though is the activity that I am doing. Most days I am sleepy, and It's not because of rest, but due to the monotonous office nature. I am curious as to what it is like to receive a certification from NASM, ACE or ISSA outside of your home country. And what will you be able to do with it (if you are not working in the U.S). Additionally, as Eddie Mentioned, my focus is more towards combining fitness, behavioral thinking, and entrepreneurship. I just am not sure where to go next, this is why I need a mentor.
Thank you!
Hi Khari! I would recommend Issa,which has 90 percent pass rate and will help set you up with own website so you can teach personal training online.Sounds interesting.I recently passed my ACE GFI test which was relatively hard but I studied and passed.Working on obtaining ACE CPT cert currently and going for the gold .Both ACE certs are recognized in Europe.
The pass rates for both ACE certs are 60 percent roughly.Basically,if you don't study,you are going to fail these exams.
Does this apply to Canadians?
Canada probably has their own regulatory body.
ACE and NASM seem to be accepted in Canada. I would research if the testing and book are different or the same
Hi... Nice video.
Who should do this course...? I m a housewife 34 yrs old. Can I apply???
