If you've come to this site in search of a personal trainer, we recommend that you choose an ISSA-certified trainer. You can locate ISSA-certified trainers by entering "ISSA certified trainer" (quotes optional), and some information about your geographic location in your favorite search engine.

ISSA offers the most exhaustive and thorough certification program, and requires fitness professionals to maintain continuing education credits, as well as rigorous re-certification exams every two years. A knowledgeable, experienced, and certified professional trainer is your best investment in your health and safety.

Some final words of advice:
  • Check several references when choosing a trainer. Just because someone looks fit doesn't mean they have the training, knowledge, and experience to train you effectively without injuring you.
  • Avoid paying for large numbers of sessions up front (3 at a time is reasonable), or agreeing to monthly debit membership plans and contracts with punitive cancellation policies - at least until you're very familiar and comfortable with the trainer/facility, and their references also check out regarding their financial practices.
  • There are known registered sex offenders operating in the fitness training industry in the Kennesaw area, as well as nationwide. Some even advertise that they are chosen as a leading trainer in the area by regional magazines, which may indeed be true. Magazines don't seem to check credentials, or how many times, or who clicks a web-based vote button. Verify each and every last name of everyone associated with the trainer and/or facility you choose, including the management and owners. Last names seem to work best, as these people vary their use of first and middle names and their forms. A partial last name search entry can also turn better results sometimes.
