We live in a time when fact-checking the information that reaches us is not an unnecessary luxury.
Especially when it comes to our health, we are 'treated' on social media to the most diverse claims about nutrition and lifestyle. As recently as 2019, the scientists from Glasgow University conducted an investigation which showed that the dietary advice from bloggers is almost never reliable. It is therefore important to be alert to the sources of information.

Courses and memberships

In a time when there is so much noise on the line regarding reliable information, RWIJK GYM publishes with some regularity on topics through which the trainer team maintains and expands its knowledge and skills. Through participation in courses and memberships, we guarantee the quality of our services. And we are proud to be open about that.

In mid-December 2022, we reported on the in-house CPR, AED and First Aid courseIn this blog, we would also like to reflect on our membership of NL Actief in that context. NL Actief is the leading trade association for recognized and entrepreneurial sports and fitness companies in the Netherlands. Approximately 1,000 locations with a total of 4.3 million fitness consumers are affiliated with NL Actief. 

Extra: the NL actief FITNED.NL professional register

Not every NL actief member is listed in the Register of Fitness Professionals.
This FITNED.NL professional register is an extension of that membership. FITNED.NL is a register within the fitness industry containing certified fitness professionals who have demonstrated that they meet quality standards. RWIJK GYM is proud of its inclusion in this professional register because we also feel strongly connected to these principles.

Finally

Neither 'Personal Trainer' nor 'Weight Consultant' are protected professions. This means that anyone may practice these professions, even without relevant training.  RWIJK GYM does its utmost to be able to work responsibly with its clients as professionals, specifically as exercise and nutrition experts.
