How long does it take to become a bodybuilder?

Answer 1

Local college and university institutions may offer Physical Education, Human Kinetics, Kinesiology, and Human Movement Science programs. These are 3 to 4-year programs, depending on the institution, resulting in a Bachelor's degree. It is becoming increasingly important for trainers to take the academic route, as most employment opportunities require a degree and certification. When researching a post-secondary institution, you should: Check out the course descriptions Take a look at the textbooks in the bookstore Talk to an academic advisor Chat with students in the program (ask the advisor about mentors) This will help you evaluate your interest in the program and its compatibility with your career goals. If you are lucky enough to have two colleges near you with similar programs, check them both out. Some curriculums are quite different in their course offerings (theory vs. application). Look for a nice balance. Once you have found a program you like then look at tuition costs, book costs, time commitment (part-time or full-time student), work and family responsibilities. If your time is limited, look at the possibility of part-time studies and correspondence courses. It will take longer but as Stephen Covey says, "It is not how fast you are going, it is where you're heading that's more important". or you can become certified by at least one nationally recognized organization such as the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), the American Council on Exercise (ACE), the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA), or the National Strength and Conditioning Council (NSCC).

It can take anywhere from 1-7 years! cheers Local college and university institutions may offer Physical Education, Human Kinetics, Kinesiology, and Human Movement Science programs.
