The Axiom Fitness Academy personal training prep course is designed to better prepare students for a more predictable outcome with getting NASM-certified, and to serve as a launchpad for long-term career success.

In the Axiom 10-week course, you’ll experience our tried and true method of learning the most important information and skills that personal trainers need to thrive. Anchored by our weekly instructor-led sessions, you’ll know exactly what’s on the test as well as how that translates to working with clients in person.

Most Importantly,

Most Importantly

You’ll be ready to take clients right away!

You can certainly learn the theory and science of exercise from a book, but many of our students struggle to put all the pieces together because they need to see it in action for it to click.

Most Personal Trainers

learn best by doing,

Not Just Reading.

Personal training is a hands-on career. You have to know how to coach clients into exercises safely and effectively. It’s very hard to do that without practice or knowing exactly what they should be feeling.

In our course, you’ll spend hours working with other students and dial in your ability to perform and teach common exercises so you can feel confident working with clients right away.

There’s a reason we call it the

Axiom Advantage!

In order to be the best, you have to learn from the best. All of our instructors have spent many years crafting a successful career in the fitness industry. We know what works, what doesn’t, and most importantly, what new personal trainers need to know to land a job, get clients, and deliver results.

​In addition to teaching students the textbook information needed to pass the certification exam, we teach the soft skills of personal training. You’ll learn how to coach exercises, teach clients about basic nutrition, build relationships, and grow your career.

These lessons will fast-track your entry into the fitness industry…

…and give you the confidence and skills you need to thrive.

I implemented what we learned last week and used your process with client intake forms and was actually complimented by the client I was working with on how professional I was. She even signed up for training 3 times a week. This is by far the best investment into my business and I’m forever grateful.

Leah M.

Leah M

I'm so grateful to Joe and David for their amazing guidance and support! I have done both the Business Coaching Course and the Qualified Trainer Course with Axiom and honestly, I don't think I would be running a successful business right now without David and Joe and all their wisdom and coaching.

Dustin T.

Dustin T

Everything you are teaching me is working! I started the course with no clients and now I have 12. I'm getting new clients at the gym and I used one of the social posts you showed me to advertise training out of my home gym and signed two people on the next day! I still have so much to learn but you have really fast tracked me into being a Qualified Trainer.

I took the QTC course with David and Joe and knew I wanted to get more coaching from them. They pushed me to dig deep into what type of client I was looking for, what the benefits are of my two programs, and how to strategize marketing myself. Within the first two weeks, I gained two new clients, learned how to prioritize my business, and track the things that matter most.

I attended the March 2025 Programming & Coaching Workshop, and it was nothing short of amazing. The education was top-notch, and the hands-on opportunities were extremely beneficial. The knowledge I gained has significantly boosted my confidence and skills as I progress in my fitness career.

I purchased the 2-day in-person bundle, and it was the best investment I could have made. Meeting Coach Joe Drake and Coach David Crump in person, working out with them, and receiving their invaluable tips was a true gift. Now, holding my certificate in hand, I feel completely ready and confident to take the next step.

Just attended the AXIOM PPC workshop and just when I thought I couldn't be more impressed, they put on the most informative, impressive, well-formatted and well-managed workshop. I’m so proud to be an AXIOM grad!

I have taken two classes with Axiom and just came home from the PPC weekend workshop in Boca Raton. I would highly recommend Axiom for help with passing your CPT exam, starting your business and helping you build a network with others in this work. A 5-Star experience!!

Darryl C.

Darryl C

I just completed the 2-Day Practical Programming & Coaching Workshop at Axiom Fitness Academy and it proved to be invaluable to me as a newly certified trainer. Most of us get little to no on-hands preparation for assessing clients and building programs. I highly recommend this course and think this workshop should be a requirement for ALL personal trainers!

Lily W.

The 2-day in-person PPC Workshop was just so valuable! Meeting Coach Drake, David, and Damien in person gave me the chance to learn from trainers with different styles, insights, and experiences. Their expertise set a new standard for the kind of trainer I want to be.

I graduated from Axiom’s Virtual Classroom course in April and passed my NASM-CPT exam just two weeks later.Thanks to the detailed course and all the help from the instructors, passing the test was a breeze and I got a job at F45 right away.

Don’t even think twice about taking this course, JUST DO IT! I can’t even put into words how much I’ve learned these past few weeks. As someone who didn’t study sports and exercise science, Axiom was exactly what I needed.

I took the NASM exam and passed on my first try. 1000% recommend! They are all great! If you’re considering it - go for it. You won’t regret it.

I can't say enough great things about the Axiom Fitness Academy! I tried to take this course on my own time online and I just couldn't get through it, I wasn't learning and the information was just too much!
