Personal Trainer vs Medical Exercise Specialist....which are you?

 

Let's continue outlining our Advanced Medical Exercise Specialist Virtual Workshop. We will use case studies to teach and apply the advanced MET skills and techniques taught in this course. We will start with Mrs. Jacobs' case study: 

The AMES will give you the ability to identify and use:

  • Red Flags
  • Vital Signs
  • Functional Outcome Measures
  • Muscle Testing
  • Goniometry
  • Balance and Gait

These components are used to determine if the client is appropriate for exercise (should be referred back to physical or occupational therapy or a physician) as well as the basis for a safe and effective MET program. These MET skills are just a few of the more than 52 reviewed in the AMES Virtual workshop. These skills will help you make the transition from personal trainer to Medical Exercise Specialist. Go to www.AMESVirtualWorkshop.com to register. Register now.....only a couple seats are left!

AMES.....Should You Join the Residency

 

Let me take a moment to talk about creating a medical exercise training practice. Most of our students are personal trainers, health coaches, massage therapists, fitness trainers, or similar professionals. For most of them, medical exercise training (MET) is another tool in their toolbox.

Now, we’re finding physicians, surgeons, and other health professionals are looking for more advanced MET services for their patients. Many of our graduates want to know how to handle more complex MET cases. They want the skills to be able to handle client cases effectively and speak with doctors with the complete knowledge and confidence of the exercise programs they have developed.

That’s why we created the "Advanced Medical Exercise Specialist Residency”.

By the time you’re done with the residency, you’re able to work directly with physicians and therapists, understanding even the most complex cases, and be able to manage a client’s case from the beginning to a positive functional outcome.
