NESTA and 24-Hour Fitness Workshops

We at the National Exercise and Sports Trainers Association have had the pleasure of working in conjunction with 24-Hour Fitness for a while now. We are currently working on expanding our relationship into new demographics to provide live, hands-on training and certification workshops across the country. We have recently agreed to new locations such as Dallas, Houston, Colorado and Miami as well as locally in California. It's a great fit! 24 hour fitness trainers can earn a pay increase and CEU's for NASM and 24-Hour PT Certification.

Happy 4th of July

I don't know about you, but we here at NESTA are so excited for the upcoming 3-day weekend to celebrate the 4th of July. But, we all know what comes with holiday weekends; barbeques, lounging, tempting foods, etc. You don't have to let your health fall apart over a few days!
Take up some fun activities with your friends and family. Play some football, go for a bike ride, go for a hike. Do anything that is fun and keeps your body moving.
At the get-together potlucks, stick to healthy choices such as fruits, vegetables, and lean meats. We're only human, so if you want to splurge, please go ahead by all means, but remember, everything in moderation.
A last note, remember to stay hydrated, especially in warm weather conditions!

On a final note, we would like to congratulate our NESTA members Nicki Anderson and Jonathan Ross who are both 2008 IDEA Health and Fitness Award Finalists! We are very proud of them and hope that it serves as inspiration to fellow NESTA members as well as their clients.

Have a safe holiday!
