Additionally, with more people looking for ways to integrate exercise into their daily lives, NASM’s new Home Gym Design Specialization enables learners to design safe and effective in-home gyms on any budget.
Both programs are designed to address the unique and evolving needs of today’s fitness professionals and enthusiasts, NASM notes in a media release.
“Our mission is to provide the best knowledge and tools for our community to build successful careers. These two courses demonstrate our commitment to keeping our trainers and instructors on the cutting edge of today’s emerging technologies and trends.
— Laurie McCartney, President of NASM
