Dear Prospective Fitness Trainer,

 

First of all thanks for taking the time to visit this site.  It's my hope that you have precisely what I need in a fitness trainer so I can take this page down immediately and put you to work in the fun and rewarding coaching position I have available.

 

You should have arrived here because you saw my employment ad in the national paper that reads like this:

 

 

So let me tell you about me, my business and the coaching position.

 

My name is Robb Evans and I run a fitness and nutrition coaching business called Studioz Personal Training in Pakenham, Victoria.

 

My business is dedicated to helping women and men achieve their health and fitness goals through customised nutrition and fitness programs.

 

And business is booming!

 

I'm looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, and energetic person to start training some of our current clients.

 

My studio is located behind the Pakenham golf course.

 

I currently offer one-on-one customised nutrition and fitness programs, boot camp classes (Pakenham) and nutrition counseling which educate, motivate, and support men, women and teens to improve their health and fitness.  All clients begin with an initial 12 week coaching package which includes; nutrition counseling, exercise program design, nutritional supplements, monthly fitness assessments and weekly training sessions here at the studio or in the Pakenham Boot Camps.

 

If you are hired for this coaching position, you'll begin coaching clients in the studio 2-3 days a week for 3-4 hours per day (am and pm hours), Monday to Friday with opportunities to conduct outdoor Boot Camp classes at the Pakenham locations (which incorporates Saturday mornings in Pakenham).

 

Bottom line you'll get at least 15 hours of training clients per week at $22 per hour. You will be paid as an independent contractor, and have the opportunity to have your pay rate reviewed and go as a part-time casual after a 90 day period.  My studio and Boot Camps offer a casual, fun environment, nice training equipment and the opportunity to learn the inner-workings of a successful personal training studio.

 

Oh yeah, I'm also very fair, respectful and appreciative.  I like having fun and making money providing highly valuable fitness services and products.  You will be compensated fairly, treated fairly and I will certainly look for ways to pay you more for your efforts if they warrant it.  I want someone who enjoys working with people and making a difference in the lives of others... because that's what we do in my studio.

 

Tasks You'll Be Expected To Perform

 

*  Develop Comprehensive Health & Fitness Programs For Clients.  You'll receive coaching and training on our fitness system and programs, but you'll have flexibility to incorporate your training style and knowledge.

 

*  Tracking Client Progress:  In order to ensure a client's success in our programs, you'll need to track weekly progress, current successes and challenges, review client nutrition and exercise log worksheets and more, on a weekly basis.  It will be your job to hold a client accountable to his / her health and fitness program to ensure the best results possible.

 

*  Perform Fitness Evaluations:  Ideally, you'll have some fitness assessment skills and can test for: body composition, bodyweight, girth measurements, blood pressure, heart rate and various strength and flexibility tests.  You do not need previous experience, but if you do, that's a bonus.

 

*  Coach clients through a 12 week program:  You'll be responsible for weekly exercise sessions and keeping detailed weekly progress reports on the clients you're working with.  If a client is having challenges throughout his / her program, you'll coach and motivate clients and make appropriate changes to ensure consistent progress.

 

*  Demonstrate Proper Exercise Instruction:  This is a big one.  I need you to be able to provide proper coaching, instruction, and motivation during a client training session.  You should have a working knowledge of the human body (ie muscles, movements, functions, etc) and be able to provide appropriate exercises for client's goals.

 

*  Provide Ongoing Health and Fitness Education:  Our clients rely on us to service all of their health and fitness needs.  it is your job as a fitness coach to provide your clients with health and fitness education on various topics that will empower them to lead healthy lives forever.  You'll be provided with educational tools and resources, will be expected to study them and speak about them with your clients.  We also spend time covering this in our weekly staff meetings.

 

 

These are the skills you must already have in order to qualify for this position:

 

*  Good Communication Skills:  you will be talking with my clients, who are VERY important to me.  You must be comfortable conversing in-person and on the phone and know how to conduct yourself professionally, and deliver clear instructions to the clients.  I'll teach you everything you need to do during a training session, but I can't teach you manners and professionalism.

 

*  People skills and personality:  must LOVE working with people!  As mentioned above, you must be very comfortable working with people.  This is an exciting studio and you must be able to show your clients energy and excitement while working with them.

 

*  Health and Fitness Education:  you must be qualified in Certificate III and IV in Fitness and have a good working knowledge of health and fitness.

 

Bonus Skills

 

If you have these additional skills, your resume will go right to the top of the stack (but if you don't have these skills, you should still apply because these are not mandatory).

 

*  Previous personal training experience (fitness studio, health club, in-home trainer, etc)

 

*  Basic nutrition knowledge

 

*  National fitness certification

 

*  Kinesiology degree

 

*  CPR certified

P.S.  This is not the type of job where just showing up is enough.  Performance is everything to me.  If you perform, you will be rewarded.  I want nothing more than to find a person who takes real interest in doing good work and taking care of our clients.  If that's you, I promise that $22/hr is only the starting point.  I recognise and reward performance!

 

With all that said, as I mentioned in the headline on this page, enthusiasm and a positive attitude go a long way in my book.  I'm a very positive, upbeat business owner and appreciate those qualities in others.  As long as you have the basic skills I mentioned, and a great attitude, you're definitely a candidate!  So submit your information today!
