yep

How do I do it
>>
do you have any legitimate training or qualifications beyond 'I like to lift weights for an hour 4 times a week'

Probably have to go to nursing school or something and become a physical therapist.
>>
>>39803391
Lmao not nursing school. Therapy school. Some hospitals will have an intensive rehab unit in the hospital so you can do more than walk old people everyday
>>
>>39803172
Yeah as a physical therapist not a personal trainer. That means undergrad plus grad school instead of taking a 5 min online course.
>>
get a bachelors degree then apply
>>
>>39803172
Yes

Many hospitals have fitness centers and exercise therapy programs nowadays

You'll need a bachelor's degree in kinesiology, exercise science/physiology, health, or something of that sort along with ACSM or NSCA certification.

As a physical therapist, of course; as a personal trainer, of course not, kek. A physical therapist has various opportunities in a clinical setting, from dealing with terminal patients to intensive rehab to walking old people, heh.

OTA>PT

You have more job offers, you can make places compete for your services and you're not pigeonholed into one place.
>>
>not being a full time firefighter + part time personal trainer

fuckin pleb
