We strive for excellence in exercise education.

We provide an education designed to nurture and enhance the success of our personal trainers and trainers-to-be. Our goal is to help you become one of the best of the best in the industry.

We do this through providing a ground-level up education, built out of modules and lessons. You will start with the basics: how you will become a professional personal trainer, learning the key benefits of exercise, and understanding the anatomy and physiology we act upon when we exercise.

With that solid underpinning you are then ready to build your knowledge of HIT, first theoretically and then at a practical and application level. This includes how to perform the recommended exercises including machines, free weights and bodyweight and how to write and structure routines.

The business of being a successful personal trainer or gym does not just rely on your understanding of HIT and exercise of equal importance is how you work and interact with clients, how you adapt the protocol to the individual and special populations. These are the topics you will explore as you work deeper into your course.

If you have signed up to one of our top-level courses you may also study the nutrition module. Here you will learn about nutrition for support of health and exercise, and we will delve into specific fat reduction and mass gain strategies.

Our Masters PT course goes even further covering wellbeing and lifestyle optimization strategies to enhance results from exercise. You will also learn practical, useful step-by-step approaches to driving a successful business in our business and marketing modules.

We have a passion for teaching HIT.

The vast majority of people looking to hire a personal trainer will highly value a fitness methodology that stimulates optimal results with minimal time investment. HIT provides the most valuable return on investment in the world of exercise.

Not only is HIT the type of exercise that most will want due to the time efficient results, it is also a form of exercise that is physiologically suitable for the widest possible audience. HIT is the cornerstone of a successful fitness routine for nearly all populations. Children to senior citizens, men and women, the inactive through to the highly athletic all can benefit from HIT and the service you will provide.

Our depth of specialist knowledge of HIT ensures that your exercise questions will be answered throughout all the modules and lessons of the HITuni courses. As will the questions that your clients and future clients will likely ask you too. You will gain a deep understanding how to apply HIT with your client base, taking full advantage of our experience.

As well as being HIT-centric, our driving ethos and our courses are integrative of the latest research in the exercise field, we are focused on a future-proof and forward-thinking approach to fitness.

HITuni leads the way in the provision of online HIT education.

You can learn at your own pace, at any time. Our courses are delivered through our cutting edge educational platform that is intuitive and easy to use. This helps to make the learning experience a pleasurable one.

Your courses are not only there for you whilst you are studying, they are there after you have graduated to refer back to at any time: HITuni is a learning resource for life. Many of our successful certified Personal Trainers tell us how valuable it is to go back to loom at an exercise demo video, or to check some knowledge after a client has asked them a specific question.

The modules and lessons that populate the platform and all our courses consist of in-depth video lectures, presented with even more in-depth, comprehensive notes that expand on the video content. We also use gifs and photographs to animate concepts.

You will also find a library of voice-over video and photographic exercise demonstrations covering all muscle groups from the calves to the neck and all between.

These exercises are then put to use in our extensive routine directory, where you can select routines for yourself and your clients or using them as modifiable templates when required.

You will also notice there are expert’s views placed throughout the course. These are video interviews with leading experts in the field of HIT that compound on the topics, adding value to the learning experience.

There are quizzes at the end of each module for you to test your learning and to use as practice prior to your final exam.
