Did you do NASM or ACSM? Do you know the difference? I am really interested in doing this as well but am so confused on who to sign up with!
I did NASM. I don’t know a whole lot about ACSM, but I know that most of the gyms around me prefer NASM so that’s what I chose to go with.

Hahaha, I had a feeling some people might think that! Nope…not yet! :)
Congradulations! You’ll do great!
Wow, what fab news- congrats!!
Congrats! Thanks for sharing about Raynaud’s. My fingers and toes have been doing that and going numb. I’ve been starting to freak out a little about it because it happens almost every day. I did a little research on it and feel a little better about it now. Will also go to the dr when I return from vacation.
Congratulations!! What a great way to start the new year!
You’ll have to let us know where you are working, I’d love to work with you!
Shoot me an email, Kate! ;)
Woohoooo! That is awesome! Congrats!!! :D Looking forward to hearing about it!

Yes, Yes, Yes!
Congratulations on your new adventure — the excitement is just radiating off of you! Can’t wait to hear all about it! (and can you come be my personal trainer?!)
Congratulations Courtney!!! So very happy for you and I wish you the very best of luck and can’t wait to follow you along ths exciting new journey of yours!! I know if I saw you in the gym I’d want you to be my personal trainer! ;) xo
CONGRATS!!! You deserve it; you’ve put in so much hard work!
Congratulations! That’s great news!

YAY! Congrats!! I’m happy for you, finding a job you are most passionate about! Can’t wait to see how everything goes!
Congrats!!!!!!! I know you will do wonderful at it!! :)
WOOHOOO!! Congrats Courtney! A big month for you!!
First, your anniversary.
Then SOYJOY.
Then Personal Training Job.
Next, your birthday!!
It’s gonna be a good year…. :) :) :)
(by the way, I would love to see a Vlog of Cody in action with his pull-tabs from the milk containers!)
I know, right?!? Haha, I was already thinking about this when I first posted about January being a big month. :)
And I will definitely have to see if I can get some video of the Code-ster when he’s in action.
Congrats, Courtney! It’s not surprising that you were able to secure a position! I can’t wait to hear more about your upcoming adventures!! ;) Haha, I thought you were going to announce you were pregnant. ;)
Haha, nope not yet!!
Congrats on the new job! You’ll be awesome! I used to have the exact same thing with my fingers and toes….poor circulation, always cold! (i used to call it “cadaver fingers” lol) My jerk doctor told me “it’s raynauds, 25% of women get it, move somewhere warm.” Well, I also discovered I am sensitive to gluten and ever since going gluten free I have never had my fingers turn white since!!! Along with no more headaches, fatigue, GI issues and tons of other symptoms it erased. I can actually touch ice cubes now without feeling like my fingers are gonna fall off! Best of luck with the new Jay-Oh-Bee!
I know I’m a few days behind (been a busy week)…but CONGRATS! I am so excited for you. I cannot wait to follow along as you get started with personal training and then build up your career. You are going to excel!
Congrats. I’m very happy for you. You will kick butt!! :)
WAY late, I’m terrible, but HUGE CONGRATS Court! :) So happy for you!!! Now you just need to move to Florida so that you can train me…AND so that you can stay warm!!!! :D It’s always warm here…even in the dead of winter!
