Is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist different from a personal trainer or physiotherapist?
Yes - there is a difference between an exercise physiologist and personal trainer/physiotherapist.
To become an Accredited Exercise Physiologist, you need to complete:
Different from a personal trainer: Exercise Physiologists are different from personal trainers, who traditionally can be qualified with a minimum 6 weeks of studying and provide exercise for healthy individuals who are at low risk of chronic illness. Different from a physiotherapist: AEPs do not provide any manual therapy! This means no massage, however they may assist you with stretching to relieve tight muscles. Exercise Physiologists typically do not treat acute injuries (such as a fracture that just happened) but, some do specialise to be skilled in this area. |
