Hey, I know I don't know that much about training at the moment, im only 15, thats why I ask so many questions on here :laugh:! But when I leave school I want to become a personal trainer but I don't know how to go about doing it! Can some please tell what you have to do (qualifications etc.), where you have to go? or whatever else I need to know!

Thanks x
