Chances are ... your PT HATES training you đą
Because they probably donât even enjoy training themselves.
Anymore.
Iâve seen it before.
Many many times.
PTs fall out of love with their own training.
And once that happens ..
Itâs game over for them.
& most importantly, their clients.
>>
Hereâs how it usually maps out.
Take your typical Personal Trainer.
Letâs call this person Josh.
Josh is in his early 20s.
He enjoys going to the gym.
And wants to follow a career path he genuinely enjoys.
Fair enough.
So he becomes a PT.
(up until now, this is an almost carbon copy of what I did)
Starts his career at a gym.
âStart at the bottom & work your way upâ
Kinda thing.
Long hours (clients usually want to train before & after work)
Early starts (first client at 6 am, fairly standard)
Late finishes (last client is at 6 or 7 pm, fairly standard. Leaving the gym at 8 pm)
Initial pay isnât great (as with most starting salaries when youâre in your early 20s)
Working weekends (people want to train on Saturday & Sunday, so you gotta do it)
>>Itâs a cocktail for fast burnout
And because of how much/hard Josh is working.
His own training suffers.
Before he was used to training 4-5 times a week.
1.5 hours for each session.
Taking his time, enjoying it etc
Now heâs lucky if he has time to squeeze in 2-3 sessions a week
At 45 minutes a pop.
Fast forward 6, 9, 12 months.
And heâs lost the âloveâ for the gym that propelled him to start a career as a PT in the first place.
>>
This scenario btw.
Is sooooo common.
Which is why most PTs arenât in the game for very long.
Or if they are.
Theyâre not interested in it anymore.
And eventually, drop off to do something else.
..
I guess thatâs where Iâm different đ¤Ş
Have a great evening.
