so I got all my materials from ACE and have been studying for the past few days. All i can say is WOW there is sooo much information to learn. chapter one outline took up 5 pages of college ruled notebook paper (only one sided).





I cant wait for it to all be over and I can start though!





anyone certified here?

I don't know if I agree with that or not. Personal training in California will be way easier to find jobs, and I have a few gym contacts already from my friends in cali currently.

A Cell Phone Salesgeek who wants to "PUMP YOU UP"; sounds like the plot to a low budget homo sausage fest movie. Looks like the real reason he is moving to KALIFORNY is to be the gay movie set FLUFFER!

Wait till you get to the section thats tells you weights are heavy.









Thats why a friend of mine quit working out. He said "Man lifting those heavy weights makes me tired......"

Speaking of which I just came back from my run and ate some awsome chicken tortillia soup!

I am an IFPA certified trainer. I got it in December. Man was it hard, but so much fun. I really enjoy training people and the pay isnt bad either. Good luck, just keep reading!
