Personal trainers now have an advanced certification option to keep up with their client's expectations.

"By integrating Polar heart rate monitoring education and technology with NESTA's comprehensive certification programs, trainers and club owners now have an effective way to plan, measure and assess a club member's efforts. This intelligent approach to fitness and weight loss will improve member results, boost retention, and increase club revenues."
