American Council on Exercise (ACE) announced that it has teamed up with Total Gym® to provide online education for certified personal trainers.
The collaboration with ACE is Total Gym’s first foray into online education. Total Gym can be found in over 14,000 physical therapy clinics, athletic training facilities, hospitals, universities, professional sports teams and health clubs, as well as 4 million homes worldwide.
The ACE Total Gym Introductory Course, developed by Total Gym, focuses on providing one-on-one personal training education. It equips certified personal trainers with the opportunity to learn how to use a Total Gym incline bodyweight trainer to create fun, efficient and effective workouts for their clients, while earning necessary continuing education credits (CECs).
The comprehensive online course covers the essential methodologies and basic exercise movements in connection with incline bodyweight training, as well as how to integrate the ACE Integrated Fitness Training® model to develop workouts on Total Gym that appropriately challenge a trainer’s clients.
“We’re excited about this online course for a number of reasons — one, it will give fitness professionals a greater understanding of how they can use Total Gym in their sessions; and two, it will give them more ways to stand out in a competitive industry,” said Anthony J. Wall, the professional education director for ACE. “We hope to collaborate with Total Gym on more projects in the future.”
