AAAI/ISMA is currently the largest fitness certification association in the world, with over 95,000 certified members. However, size is not as important as the standards by which they provide fitness certification and education. All faculty trainers have a Master's degree, Ph.d., or M.D., and their certification system is modeled after a university education system where students receive a study book and attend an inter-active educational workshop. Their goal is to help fitness instructors teach safe, effective training sessions.
This review course covers advanced concepts of applied exercise science as it relates to personal fitness training with special populations, i.e., those with health conditions (arthritis, injuries and joint replacements, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, fibromyalgia, hypertension, metabolic syndrome and obesity, etc.), pregnancy, elderly, and children. Safe application of modified exercises as it relates to these various populations is taught. Additionally, nutritional concepts and personal training business development are address.
