Fitness Exercise Careers
Now is the time to train for fitness exercise careers. Interest in keeping fit and losing weight is at an all-time high across the country. Television weight loss shows have been a factor in increasing awareness of the importance of health and well-being, along with an aging baby-boomer population who is interested in preserving health and increasing longevity. The result? Employment of fitness workers is expected to increase 29% by 2018. That's nearly 77,00 new fitness and exercise jobs!
Did you know?
As physical education programs in school have been reduced, a new market has risen for fitness and exercise careers. Fitness and exercise workers such as personal trainers, aerobics, Pilates and other cardio-exercise instructors will enjoy great success working with clients who recognize the benefits of health and fitness.
