Mesa Arizona Personal Trainers come in all shapes and sizes. It is important for the consumer to identify their particular needs and begin a search based on this criteria. Choosing a Mesa Arizona Personal Trainer often begins with determining which gender you prefer. There are distinct pluses and minuses between male and female personal trainers. But feeling comfortable with who is in charge of your health is very important. A nationally certified Mesa Arizona Personal trainer can easily adapt to working with men, women and young adults who require weight loss programs or general toning.
if you have underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia or any type of orthopedic issues, it is highly recommended that you work with a nationally certified Mesa Arizona Personal Trainer who is also certified to work with special populations. The credentials you should look for are Medical Exercise Specialist, Senior Fitness Specialist, Post Cardiac Rehabilitation Specialist, Pre and Post Natal Conditioning Specialist and Post Orthopedic Rehab Conditioning Specialist.
Majority of these sub specialty certifications require the nationally certified Personal Trainer to take a rather grueling written and hands on examination by a sponsored physical therapist or physician. Usually the prerequisites are as follows, but can differ between certifications.
- Have worked 1 year in a medical related field such as physical therapy, chiropractic, exercise physiology or kinesiology
- Complete 10 hours of observation in a physical therapy office
- Complete a 2-3 day workshop by the sponsored certification group
- Hold a degree in health or fitness related field.
- And in my opinion should be compassionate and caring beyond the call of duty.
Next, If enhancing your sports performance and accountability is your specific need then choosing a Mesa Arizona Personal Trainer with a four-year degree in exercise physiology, kinesiology or athletic training is ideal! This hybrid trainer might be difficult to locate. They are usually working for a high school, college or in some cases a pro team. Your second best choice for sports performance training is a nationally certified personal trainer with a subspecialty certification in Performance Enhancement or Sports Conditioning.

Understanding and teaching multiplanar movement systems, core, agility, speed, quickness and explosiveness are the foundations of this sort of personal trainer certification. The Performance Enhancement Trainer also understands the unique nutritional needs of the athlete which is much different from what most people require.
