This is a very biased opinion assuming you are only doing this for the money. I have went the route of living for a pay check and have done alright for myself and my family. But I wake up every day feeling unmotivated and borderline depressed knowing I have no passion in my current career. Life has a way of rewarding the brave and the bold! If this is where your passion is have faith and move forward. God will have your back and you will be grateful knowing you are living the life you chose!

Being a kinesiology major is like being an entrepreneur, the thing you are marketing to get a job is yourself, if you don't know how to market yourself getting a well paying job.

[Elizabeth-tmxr]

Many Bachelors degrees get you no where anymore. You must think long term period. I found Kinesiology very interesting and prepared me for Athletic Training. I use the material all the time, and am progressing into my final stage of my career with more graduate school.

[EatMoreCarbs]

Appreciate this video, I was initially a Kinesiology major but just changed to Business instead. There are more ways than ever to become a fitness influencer or just be involved in that world without a degree or certs now. The pay and the payoff just isn't worth it for me and for most people just getting their PT license or having a social media dedicated to fitness or nutrition would suit them better rather than going for it full time. It's only worth it if you're interested in Health and even furthering your education.

2:00-2:10 I felt that in my soul. I was going to go to PT school but I thought I could easily find a good paying job and save some debt by not going to grad school. I've wandered around to come to this same conclusion... I love the knowledge that I've gained but truthfully speaking I want to be a 6-figure earner and without grad school, this isn't the way. Now I find myself wanting to pursue a degree in technology or engineering bc the pay is much better. It may take longer but atleast I'll have more career opportunities to be financially successful.

[KellyThompson-rf]

This is absolutely true. I got my BS in kinesiology without really any thought as to what I wanted to do after school. I was interested in the degree and material but I graduated and realized I could not make any money with that!! Very frustrating. I made more money working in restaurants until I finally decided to go back to school for PT. By the time I decided that, all of my science prerequisite courses have expired and I literally had to retake all of them! I don’t regret my major, however I would have done things differently and considered the long-term outcome. so if you’re considering kinesiology, just make sure you know exactly what you want to do with it!

[SkullPrism]

I was worried this video would be about how you shouldn't do Kinesiology, PERIOD. I'm glad that it's just about how you should pursue an M.S., P.h.D, etc., which is something I already wanted to do. I want to start with a Kinesiology B.S., and move into an Exercise Phys. M.S., and P.h.D.

[miles.alexander]

I was a Kinesiology student in L.A. then rolled that into a golf management program which resulted in a 12 year golf industry career. There were a lot of students in my classes that were heading into medical careers. You can also just double major or add some minors.

[Jahsandrea]

I always wanted to do something fitness related. Personal Training, Fitness Manager, PE teacher. I already been a Personal Trainer and Fitness Manager with certifications, realized just how unstable I’d be if I kept it up(I made so little money) so I went back to school for my Kinesiology bachelors JUST TO FIND OUT it’s such a useless degree unless you’re going for your masters in PT OT AT. I’m on my last semester too😅 I’m definitely glad I can get my teaching license and work at a highschool as a PE teacher🤧 It just so happens that you need a bachelors in kinesiology or exercise science to start the teaching program, so we’re still in it😅 and I could even get my masters and get a nice pay bump

[erickvelasquez]

I agree with some, i am a kine major, no plans going to grad school, i am a Personal trainer, one avenue you can go is into management in the PT department, then maybe after go to GM of the gym then regional director etc etc. This is the route i will go. The only athletic directors and S&C coaches that make good money are in top universities and ways to get there are mainly connections and the security is not there. Just my sense

[andresmoreno]

I'm a kinesiology major, but I'm also a student athlete. Initially i thought pt was the route for me, but now I am considering becoming an athletic trainer and looking to get a graduate assistant(GA) position at a university near me to pay for my master's degree. As a GA they pay for your tuition for the master's you are pursuing

[sportsandmsk_medicine]

Agree.
I am a sports medicine physician and unfortunately did kinesiology first. These exact video points made me add a second degree and then go to medical school.

[oliviakapolka]

I am currently a first year kinesiology student in university and possibly looking into taking biology as a minor. I will definitely be doing my masters as well and so far its alright. I have been though looking into other majors because kinesiology is quite under looked at. Still not entirely sure what I'd want to do later on as I do have to keep the salary in mind.

[LaurenObi]

I am a kinesiology major (motor and rehabilitation), and currently I am on my last year in community college and I’m about to transfer the bachelors . These days are WORTH NOTHING, but I do want to become an occupational therapist so I will be going back to school.

[mightcamlee]

What about getting an Associate degree in Kinesiology?

[spaceintuity]

You have many job opportunities. You may not be able to work in the exercise field but there are plenty of places that want employees with degrees, period. This whole advice of “if you aren’t going into Engineering or nursing don’t go to college” is so stupid. Not everyone can or wants be an engineer or a doctor. I will say be smart with your choice of school to save money, but your degree isn’t worthless and if kinesiology is what interest you, do it. A degree is better than no degree

[clouie]

Great video. I'm in high school thinking about Kinesiology, and trying to become a personal trainer for a gym possibly later on. I was thinking about majoring in Kinesiology and getting a minor in exercise and sport studies. Then maybe later when I have a solid job go into grad school to become a physical therapist. I was wondering what you thought of this idea?

[SoccerCrazy]

what is the different between a major in kinesiology and sports science & excercise physiology ?

[SOULSafeProductionZ]

So, with all the pro sports teams, ALL OVER THE COUNTRY and even collegiate level sports programs, you're saying there's NOTHING a kinesiology major can do????

[brianrivera]

I don't understand why people don't get a bachelor's in something useful as a back up plan then just get a doct or master in pt or ot
