Advanced Resistance Training Certificate

Advanced Resistance Training

Advanced resistance training is essential knowledge for personal trainers who want to take their clients' resistance training to the next level. We begin with an in-depth look into muscle function and describe the effect that advanced resistance training has on the various muscle groups. We then move on to the science of designing and tailoring training programmes for a variety of client types by using prescribed protocols and tools for advanced resistance training. Two modules are devoted to practical resistance training techniques and include a full description of each technique, the pros and cons of these techniques and detailed practical examples. Finally, we take a look at the importance of health screening, to ensure that client eligibility for these programmes is prioritised and that client safety is guaranteed.

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 5 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Once you have completed all 5 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 5 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

The pass mark for the test is 70%.

If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

You can either use your Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Solo cards or PayPal account to pay for the online course. Our site uses the latest SSL encryption to ensure your safety. All payments are handled securely by PayPal.

You can begin the course immediately after your payment has been received. You will create your login details during the checkout process. We will also send you an email confirming your login details.

We estimate that the course will take about 3.75 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

Well structured and easy to follow coursework. My queries were answered promptly and were clearly not stock Q&A responses so I felt I had been given real support.

The test at the end was unexpected as the end of module tests were self marking. As it was a timed test that covered every aspect of the course but in a random way which meant one had to pay attention and read the questions carefully!

I feel I have achieved something and will certainly follow up with another course. New Skills Academy is highly recommended as an online study organisation, as well.

Really interesting and a good starting point for increasing my understanding and knowledge. Easy to access at any time, modules were nice and short so good bursts of information and easy to understand. I feel that I have gained knowledge that I can take forward within my current profession and apply my knowledge to get the best possible results for my organisation in all forms of media. Would recommend this course for anyone looking to start off in this career and looking to gain solid background information to take you forward. You have the flexibility to learn in your own time and take it at your own pace which is great when you are already working full time.

I started doing nails as a hobby, and my interest just carried on growing, I never thought that I would end up qualified!

This is an amazing way to turn your hobby into a nice little money maker and boost your own confidence and knowledge in the process.

Amy Armstrong

I was a bit apprehensive about doing this course online but I needn't have worried. I was able to work through the modules at my own pace.

The course material was easy to understand and had some really useful and practical information and advice such as choosing a name for your business and the pitfalls of working from home.

I'm really, really glad I did this course as I am a home baker and it has provided lots of useful knowledge and tips to take my business forward.

The course has definitely given me the confidence to take my hobby to the next level.

Thank you

Monica Richards

The course was very useful. It covers everything you need starting from the introduction to the comments. Everything was explained in a way to understand easily each one module of it. I really liked the pivot table module.

It is so helpful, don’t know how I lived until now without it at work. It is just amazing. I am so glad that I started the course and I am proud of myself that I did it in a such a short time.

Thank you for this. Can’t wait to start the next one – intermediate level! Hopefully I will pass it. And who knows – maybe after that I will pass the advanced one.
