About Trainer Academy
Trainer Academy was created because of the need for high-quality study materials in the fitness industry. All of our team members hold various personal trainer certifications and have years of experience. We all come from slightly different training backgrounds, which makes our combined knowledge something special.
I noticed that some of the personal training certifications had as low as a 50% pass rate. That was unacceptable. I had to do something about it.
