Exercise Program Design for Special
Populations
Many personal fitness trainers limit themselves, their business and
their income potential by serving only the “young and fit.” There
are other populations who can benefit from your services and who
need your guidance and assistance to improve their health and
fitness. In addition, more mature individuals may not only need your
expertise, but are also more likely to have the discretionary time
and money to hire you. If you expand your business to serve special
populations you will not only help more people, but also increase
your income and profitability! Qualifies for 6 continuing education
credits for personal trainers and fitness professionals.
