What is Athletic Training? What is Athletic Training? Obviously its not training athletes on how to play specific sports. Is it personal training then?? Nooooo. I'll just show you...

Everyone I talk to always ask "hey what do you study or what do you do?" I say "I'm an Athletic Trainer and people always comment with "ohhh I need to lose some weight and get in shape could you do that for me?" or they would say "hey my kids need to learn how to play sports could you train them?"

Then, depending on who it is sometimes I explain them what I actually do or sometimes just say no, I can't help you and walk away. (haha but most of the times I explain what I actually do).

Thank you Manchester!

There is a difference!!
Athletic Trainer vs. Personal Trainer.
Here is some information to differentiate these two professions.

An athletic trainer is a person who meets the qualifications set by a state licensure and/or the Board of Certification, Inc. and practices athletic training under the direction of a physician.

A personal trainer is a person who prescribes, monsters and changes an individual's specific exercise program in a fitness or sports setting.
