Hi all,
Pookie here. I'm a qualified personal trainer from Melbourne Australia with about a year of experience as a mobile trainer, but haven't worked in the field for a number of years (while completing a degree in Psychology and Philosophy). At the moment I'm looking to get back into the fitness industry, either as a trainer or a fitness instructor, and thought I'd seek out some advice. I have a few questions, any help would be greatly appreciated!
1. What are the best online resources to refresh one's knowledge of exercise techniques, training regimens, dietary advice, basic physiology, trends in fitness and latest fashions/crazes etc (all the stuff a good trainer should know!)?
2. (Australia specific) Is it essential to register with Fitness Australia in order to work?
3. (Melbourne specific) Anyone know of any gyms or PT companies that are looking for staff?
I'll probably repost this in the PT section of this forum as well.
Thanks,
Pookie.
