What is the difference between an Exercise Physiologist and a personal trainer?

Personal trainers can gain their qualification in as little as a few weeks. Exercise Physiologists must complete a minimum of 4 years of university prior to applying for accreditation with their governing body Exercise & Sport Science Australia (www.essa.org.au).

Exercise Physiologists are members of the Allied Health team. They work hand in hand with GPs, specialists and other allied health professionals to provide each patient with the best possible service and the most efficient road to recovery.

Benchmark Health Exercise Physiologists provide service to:

Eligible defence force members (Gold Card holders for clinically necessary treatment of any condition and White Card holders with an accepted injury or disease requiring clinical Exercise Physiology services)
