Actually, i'm going through a career change to the fitness field. My
goal is to be a trainer. The program at school is about two years. At
first i thought my age would be a drawback, but with what i want to
do, it isn't. You should go for it. I'm sure there's a school nearby
your home that has a similiar program.


Thanks for the encouragement; I will! It's very interesting, and all
the more so now that I see middle-age on the horizon.

I understand that the ACSM certification is the most widely recognized
in a field that still isn't all that well organized yet. American Red
Blood CPR certification would look great, too. What's your program
called, exactly? What will your degree or certificate say? How long
is the course of study?

Going through ACSM, it looks like almost a thousand dollars for exams
and materials!
