"Am I too old to become a PT?"
No. And that`s not the right question.
The right question is: do you want it?
We`ve certified graduates at every stage of life. The ones who succeed aren`t defined by when they started. They`re defined by showing up.
Stop asking if you`re ready. Start asking what`s actually stopping you.

Barbell squat vs hack squat 👇
Same goal, different game.
Barbell squat = full body movement, core engaged, more functional strength.
Hack squat = controlled, quad-focused, less load on your lower back.
Both have their place, just depends what you’re training for 😇
