Personal Trainer Testimonials

Brian S, Co-Owner Fitness Publication - "It is great to see that organizations such as Hondros College are recognizing the value that personal trainers can provide to the public.  After reviewing their program I was more than satisfied they are taking the proper steps to develop trainers who are knowledgeable in keys areas such as anatomy, kinesiology and proper progression.  With the overabundance of uneducated trainers in our field, it is comforting to know that programs like Hondros will help provide healthy habits to our public and benefit our economy at the same time."

Carl M, Student/Personal Trainer - "I was a plant manager for 22 years, and now I am able to work my own hours. Being a personal trainer is not a normal 9-to-5 job. Now I'm being paid for something I've enjoyed doing and have done in the past for free. The experience at Hondros, there was nothing like it, and I'm really enjoying seeing my clients succeed!"

Julie B, Student/Personal Trainer - "I've become so passionate about being a personal trainer, and I want to tell others about it. I looked and compared the Hondros Personal Training program to other programs, and the Hondros program was more reasonably priced and the courses were very good! Now I'm on my way to becoming a personal trainer, so I can share my passion of being healthy with others."

Matt H, Instructor/Personal Trainer - “At Hondros, we teach specific business topics so the students also learn exactly what they need to know to build their business. The instructors at Hondros have all been in the student’s shoes, so we know exactly what to focus on. This program is much more than just a personal training certification. There are also a lot of gyms opening up now and the potential to earn a lot of money as a trainer is definitely there.”
