Fitness for the Holidays: International Sports Sciences Association Announces Holiday Sales Event

The International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA), the southern California-based fitness education provider that certifies personal fitness trainers, gives the gift of fitness with a special holiday sales event.

Carpinteria, CA (PRWeb) November 22, 2006 -- The International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA), the southern California-based fitness education provider that certifies personal fitness trainers, is happy to announce a special holiday sales event. From now until December 22nd of this year, fitness enthusiasts and professionals can save $100 to $300 when they enroll in any ISSA fitness certification course.

During the past decade there has been an explosion of interest in fitness and wellness -in 2005, the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA) reported that the projected number of frequent health club attendees reached an all time high of 17.6 million members. ISSA pioneered the path to personal fitness training more than 18 years ago by being the first fitness organization to offer personal training certification and create specialized courses for fitness professionals. Because of properly prepared ISSA fitness trainers, millions of people have discovered a healthier lifestyle through resistance training, cardiovascular exercise, proper nutrition, flexibility training, and a positive mental outlook.

Personal training has literally redefined the health and fitness field. Many gyms and health clubs now rely exclusively on personal trainers to service their clients. In fact, a gym that does not offer personal training services (at least as an option) would be considered to be behind the times. According to IHRSA, half of all health clubs surveyed reported that personal training services were among their five most profitable programs or services.
