is this a good job? please asap?

[Rebecca Dicarlo]

what are good jobs for someone who isnt that smart, terrible with numbers and science and gets bored easily? im trying to lose weight right now and like working out but its kinda hard to stay on track and stay motivated so i thought being a personal trainer would be good? i have asthma and its bad when working out but i think it'd get better as i lose weight, what about pilates? or can you suggest any other jobs, that'd be fantastic, thanks!

Maybe working at a gym? Like not a pt. looks like the easiest job. When there's hardly any one there. You can lift/workout. Downfall would be the pay. Can't see the pay being any good. Maybe nutrition? Nutritionist?

It can be a good option, but you might experience some difficulties in an already difficult environment.

It's great when a trainer can draw from his or her experiences, but if you lost your motivation to lose weight before you've reached your goal, it makes your job a bit harder. And there are trainers that aren't in their best shape, but it makes it a little bit harder for them to gain clients because sometimes that's what they base their decision on the physical level.

And depending on you gym and even the PT certification you get, there will be science and possibly some numbers. You have to know the body and the muscles, what they do, and how they function in each exercise. You will get clients that have an array of impairments and physical restrictions and you have to know how to prevent further injuries - it's not as easy as it sounds. If a clients knees cave inward in a squat, which muscle(s) function is responsible for this? Which are overactive or underactive? What exercises will strengthen their weak muscle? Etc.

Gyms like 24, you can probably get away with knowing little bit of science after you've certified, but they don't pay too much.

Your interest, from what you've stated, is in health - but you also say you don't like science. You can't really have a health-related job without knowing science.

If you don't like science or numbers, you should look into social sciences, but not business or possibly not marketing because they can be math-heavy. Maybe become a social worker? They move quit a bit and it's hard to be bored when you're working with those that are experience problems in their life.
