First Aid, AED and CPR and the Workout

For the past 21 years I have been certified in some sort of first-aid and CPR. Since the Automated Electronic Defibrillator (AED) has become common in public places I have also been trained to use these amazing, life saving devices. I have had to maintain my certifications for jobs like being a Lifeguard, working as an Instructor for NOLS and now as a Personal Trainer. I think though, it is super important that EVERYONE take even just a basic first-aid and CPR/AED class at least once. If you do not need to re-certify for your job, don't bother. At least you will have the knowledge to help if you find yourself dealing with a medical emergency. You can find a class at the American Red Cross.
