Except apparently, they don't have used cars for sale in Hawaii (I typed in location, nearest one popped up Redwood City CA) and the cheapest here in Covina is still 7 grand....the second cheapest is 9 grand....

Is anybody a personal trainer? or know a decent amount behind the education of one? Have a few exploratory questions.
 
[Rant]
New training officer called NREMT a scam...
Does he not get that the state has to *pay* to create their own exams? Does he not get that there is a *national* accrediting body that we can use? Better to make end users pay...

I'd have to see, he is going with a full degree so his is a bit more in depth.
 
Degree-wise those that are typically going high end personal trainer (e.g., pro, and collegiate-level athletics) shoot for kinesiology degrees.

@Akulahawk can probably shed some light.
 
I just figured to see if maybe i can sneak an associates degree out of it, from the classes i've taken when i was doing nursing school(that didn't pan out), and EMT cert ect.

I'm not sure what kind of personal trainer you're getting at. If you're referring to some side cash trainer at your local fitness club, you're overqualified as it stands now.

The career-minded trainers typically tailor their degrees accordingly. It's also quite competitive the higher up, and further in you go, or so I was told by an ex-sports-trainer-to-be-turned-paramedic.

You know?...some of us haven't even reached the halfway point in our shifts yet, so you can shut your ever-lovin' jinxing meathole.
