Fitness industry is one of the fastest growing sector. That is probably why Gym Instructor is one of the most sought after course in FiT Malaysia.
Last weekend we have people coming from all over Malaysia to attend our Gym Instructor course. So, we thought it would be good to understand more about our students. So we interviewed 3 different groups of people: family members, workout buddies and best friends.
Meet Aishah, Zaharin and Jasni, from Penang
How did you find out about the course?
Aishah: My husband (Jasni) and I wanted to learn proper techniques of exercising and roles of gym instructor. We searched through the internet for related courses and we found FiT Malaysia’s page.
Tell us more about your background.
Aishah: My husband and I has a gym opening soon in Penang. I previously worked in the private sector and my husband was a Physical Education school teacher. We are both fitness enthusiasts and we decided to do something with our passion. I dragged along my younger brother, Zaharin who has just graduated from Diploma of Pharmacy as we needed manpower.
What did you learn from the course?
Zaharin: We learnt many things that we didn’t know before, such as correct exercise techniques.
Aishah: We had all kinds of machines in our gym but we didn’t know the correct way of using it.
Jasni: Before this, we learnt exercise techniques from videos on youtube and we really don’t know which to follow as there are so many different techniques practised out there. And obviously learning from someone face to face is so much better!
Next, we have Workout Buddies: Salehin & Taufik, from Johor
How did you find out about the course?
Taufik: I found out about the course through my Facebook friend who is a coach. I asked for his advice on where to attend fitness training and workshops and he recommended FiT Malaysia. He said it’s a good place to learn about safe and effective exercise techniques.
Salehin: He begged me to join. LOL
Tell us more about your background.
Taufik: I’m a assistant officer clerk in a maintenance department in a furniture factory. I play recreational sports and once got injured from playing badminton. I visited the physiotherapist and was suggested few exercises that I can do in the gym for rehabilitation. Ever since then, I work out regularly and it has been a year.
Salehin: I’m a civil engineer working in a district office. I started working out in the gym sometime ago and that’s when I met Taufik and he became my workout buddy and taught me most of the things.
What did you learn from the course?
Both: It was good and easy to understand because we both know resistance training. Besides, we also managed to clarify many myths about exercise techniques.
Taufik: I’m also considering to get myself ACE certified and take up freelance PT in the future.
Last but not least, we have Best Friends: Ai Leng and Vye, from Kuala Lumpur
How did you find out about the course?
Ai Leng: My friend who is a Fitness Trainer told me about FiT and so I thought I could drop by to check out fitness courses.
Vye: Haha, Ai Leng told me about the course!
Tell us more about your background.
Ai Leng: I’m working as an advertising sales executive. I love working out and want to learn the proper techniques in using different equipment as my interest in fitness and exercise grew. I’m considering to pursue a career in fitness in the future.
Vye: I’m currently not working and looking forward to train myself after the course!
What did you learn from the course?
Ai Leng: I find it very interesting because it comes with theory and practical so we can actually learn more about the movements and how to give proper instructions. I also find nutrition interesting because I learnt how to control my diet.
Vye: I like nutrition as well, and I also learnt different exercises and proper movements and techniques.
