Program Overview

MTTI-WellSpring's accelerated Fitness Training & Wellness Program gives you the tools needed to transform your passion for fitness into an exciting new career as a Certified Personal Trainer.  The Program offers a high quality, campus-based experience featuring extensive hands-on training - delivered by experienced instructors, active in the industry.  Upon completion, you will have the knowledge and confidence to assess fitness and sports performance clients, and design training programs to help them meet their goals.

The Program features a double certification as a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) and Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES), and includes extensive, supportive training in wellness, nutrition and other longevity enhancement practices.  As a result, graduates will be qualified to help clients across all wellness dimensions in their quest for optimal health.

The CPT and CES certifications are provided by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), who is recognized by most national fitness clubs as the gold standard in CPT certification. Ninety-three percent of NBA athletic trainers hold the NASM Performance Enhancement Specialist Advanced Specialization.  NASM certified personal trainers are reported to earn 43 percent more than the average trainer.  Once you pass the certification exams, you will have the credentials that will earn the respect of your peers and help secure employment at top health clubs and fitness centers nationwide.

At the core of the training, is the exclusive evidence-based OPT model developed by Dr. Michael Clark - physical therapist for the NBA's Phoenix Suns, and a leading advocate of performance enhancement among professional athletes.  The beauty of Dr. Clark's model is that it works just as effectively for family fitness training as it does for high powered professional athletes.

By enrolling in our accelerated evening/weekend program (two evenings a week and about one weekend per month), a student can complete the program in just 6 months. 

Some courses included in the Fitness Training & Wellness Program are Personal Fitness Training, Corrective Exercise Training, Concepts in Wellness, Counseling Skills, Wellness & Nutrition, Stress Management Facilitation, Environmental Influences on Wellness, Fitness Center Operations, Business Practices and Club Externship
