In recent years we have experienced a massive shift in health and wellbeing. Despite many studies claiming an obesity epidemic, as of 2020 1 in 3 Australians regularly participated in fitness or gym activities. The importance we are placing on our health and fitness is growing more and more each day, and with that, the fitness industry is rapidly growing. Through this boom we have seen an abundance of personal trainers, nutritionists, online courses, apps and new training styles such as HIIT and F45. One thing also constantly evolving in this industry is the education being provided.
Fitness professionals are vitally important to those at any stage of their fitness journey. Knowledge is power and when it comes to our fitness goals, having someone there to give us a proper understanding of what is required is incredibly empowering. Similarly, a great personal trainer will help us perfect our form to prevent injury, educate on nutrition and recovery, be able to tailor a program to suit our needs and so much more. Much like classroom teachers, however, people need to be able to place their trust in fitness professionals having had the proper education to be able to give proper guidance. Fitness Education Online is here to serve that need, providing certified CEC Training Courses for fitness professionals.
Created by Jono Petrohilos and Travis Mattern, Fitness Education Online has since become Australia’s number 1 online fitness CEC course provider.
