With the current explosion of interest in personal health and fitness, there is now a large demand for fully qualified strength and conditioning instructors across a wide range different fields from schools and universities to gyms and sports clubs. Training in strength and conditioning is an excellent way to set yourself apart from other fitness professionals; it is also the perfect stepping stone toward working in sports development.

Become A Specialist In Fitness

Students who qualify from our Certificate 3 and 4 in fitness courses will emerge with skills and competencies to work in strength and conditioning. However, Fit Education also provides the specialised Strength and Conditioning ASCA (Australian Strength and Conditioning Association) Level 1 course which trains health professionals to be experts in the field.

Strength and Conditioning Courses Available in Brisbane or Online

‘The body beautiful’ is something that both men and women strive to achieve throughout the world. Instagram and other social media platforms that promote images have played a major part in pushing this desire to such a point where the global fitness and health industries are thriving beyond the wildest expectations of most analysts.

Wanting the perfect physique and knowing how to achieve it are two very different things, though. Strength and conditioning courses are, therefore, in high-demand today, since the potential to create a sustainable career in this field alone has never been more realistic.

At Fit Education, we have taken considerable practical learning and experiences that our collective team have in this field and designed courses that are ideal for those with a passion for health and fitness. We believe in producing graduates that go on to become the most in-demand in their respective marketplaces and to do this, we deliver highly practical courses that are bolstered by a strong theoretical grounding.

Undertaking one of our industry-recognised certificates and diplomas is very simple. Instant access to your course material and classes is available online or here in Brisbane. You can choose to work to your own schedule and achieve at your own pace, safe in the knowledge that you will gain the knowledge and feedback that is essential to developing confidence in your own abilities. We have launched over five thousand careers to date and there is no better place to learn in Australia when success is what matters to you.

Skills That Benefit Strength and Conditioning Coaches

There is no doubt that strength and conditioning courses provide an education that has many different applications in the health and fitness world. Whether you see opportunities working with groups, or with individuals, the ubiquity of technology combined with your knowledge and insights can quickly lead to positive word-of-mouth, particularly when clients start to see results.

While your education will provide you with the foundation you need to competently engage clients, it is important to keep one eye on the market and consider the uses and benefits, or negatives, associated with new technologies or training methods. Strength and conditioning is a specialist area that is approached in many different ways, but your commitment to learning and appropriate education will set you apart from the crowd.

Adaptability is a key skill for any personal trainer or instructor to embrace. Each person that you engage with comes to the gym with his or her own history and goals in mind. As such, your ability to pivot and create workable, realistic programs that deliver results is vital to sustaining a strong presence.

Personality is a big part of the industry, too. Don’t forget that your understanding of concepts and why certain routines are favoured over others is something that you have earned, but your client may not really understand. So, taking the time to educate and explain is always helpful and promotes positive attitudes toward the process, which over time will show the results that they want.

Get Your Future Career Started The Right Way

In health and fitness, it is important to establish effective exercise programs that are tailored to the needs of the client, but it is even more important that the regime is followed correctly all the way through. If not then this can lead to poor results. We believe that this same principle extends to health and fitness students; it is essential to select the right course and learning method, but it is just as important to follow the work through to completion. At Fit Education our instructors and lecturers are on hand to advise and guide students at every stage of their course. If you take a certificate III in fitness with us, we can guarantee you will receive the necessary support to get your qualification.

How to get your Certificate III in Fitness.

Do you spend your days in a humdrum office job, strapped to your chair and staring at a computer screen? If you’re fed up of being cooped up, and you live for your post-work workouts, we might have the dream job for you. Active people need active employment, and you deserve a career that brings you the same joy your fitness regime does. The obvious answer is to make your passion into your everyday, by studying to become a fitness professional with a certificate in fitness from Fit Education.

What is the Certificate III in Fitness and why do I need it?

You might think you can jump straight off your treadmill into teaching, but there is a little more to it than that. In order to work as a group fitness instructor, you are legally required to sit your certificate III. This course is nationally recognised and will teach you everything from healthy eating to equipment maintenance. If your ambitions lie in personal training, you will need both certificate III and IV.

Once I have my qualifications, how do I find work?

We know getting ready for interviews can be a scary thought. Once you qualify, you might want to interview for positions at gyms and institutions rather than pursuing self-employed work. We’re here to help you out with our top tips for interview success within the fitness sector:

  • Read through your résumé! We know it sounds obvious, but you wouldn’t believe how many new fitness professionals we’ve seen make this mistake. It’s so important your contact details are correct, clear and easily found. But what else can you do to stand out? Make sure it looks sleek and professional; it’s your first impression on paper, so a good design is crucial to being taken seriously. Make a great cover letter that is tailored to the post you are applying for, and include this with your CV. Keep your information short and snappy (try not to go over 2 sides of A4) but include all relevant details. Be sure to draw attention to your fantastic training from Fit Education, for example! Once you have a great CV get it out there to everyone.
  • Look the part. Once you’ve landed the interview, your next thought is bound to be ‘what do I wear’?! Should you go formal or gym-ready? We think it’s best to err on the side of caution. For a primary interview dig out that suit and iron your shirt, it shows your prospective employer that you are serious about their position. When you are offered an interview, it is a good idea to ask what to expect, some gyms will ask for practical demonstrations, especially at second interviews. Ask now to prevent regret later!
  • Do your homeworkIt always impresses recruiters when you are armed with information. Research your prospective employer and show off your knowledge! Make a great impression by prepping for the interview, showing up a little early and being confident in what you have to offer.
A Certificate III in Fitness Could Get Your Career Off to a Flying Start

It can be difficult to decide what to do with your career when you are starting to explore options. Similarly, making the decision to change from the path you have already taken to something that feels a little more suited to you is a tough one to make. At the heart of such decisions should be your enthusiasm. Absence of inspiration, excitement and some sense of how bright the future might be is often a warning sign.

If your passion is health and fitness, then now might be the time to consider getting a certificate iii in fitness and take things from there. Fortunately, students or those considering a return to education in Australia have many more opportunities to level up their knowledge and qualifications without having to put everything on the line.

Here at Fit Education, we are a flexible solution to your health and fitness educational goals. We deliver cert 3 fitness courses in Brisbane as well as online. While in the past it was necessary to always engage with courses face-to-face, we appreciate the need to deliver nationally accredited courses to those who perhaps cannot make it to Brisbane, and so we have harnessed the power of the Internet and modern technology to deliver the very best educational tools online.
Our cert iii in fitness will enable you to work as a gym instructor throughout Australia. Even if you have no intention of going any further, or if you just want to create a potential supplemental income that you can pursue part-time, then this is the perfect way to achieve that goal. With our online system, you can start at any time and complete the course at your own pace.

How Trained Fitness Instructors Benefit Their Clients

There are huge differences between those that have no education in fitness training and those who have undertaken proper learning and education that involves practical application as well as theoretical knowledge. The reason that so many people injure themselves when they try to get fit is that in the absence of a cert 3 in fitness they will try things that are ineffective for them and can lead to physical pain and harm.

As a qualified instructor, you can tailor the approach for each person that you work with so that they see results from very early on and are encouraged to continue to engage. An injury at the start of any endeavor to get fit is a great excuse to quit for those that have not yet created a habit or gotten the exercise bug. With your certificate in fitness, you can reduce the level of risk that this will happen, and quickly create a positive association with exercise in the mind of your clients.

Goals are something that those new to gyms or those who want to achieve significant aesthetic changes need to have set by somebody that has in-depth knowledge. A hardcore gym fanatic might believe that they can achieve a new goal simply by leveling up across the board. However, the knowledge gained as you study for your fitness certificate will benefit them in the long run. You can set realistic goals and put them on a path that is better for their body and mind.

At Fit Education, the certificate 3 in fitness is a very popular online option that has helped countless students find the kind of work that they always dreamed of and enabled them to excel by training and instructing their clients to achieve amazing things.

If you are interested in studying for a certificate 3 in fitness online and want to learn more, just phone or email and our helpful staff will be happy to assist you in any way that they can.
