You Have Enthusiasm, a Positive Attitude and a few basic fitness
skills, I Have a $26/hr Fun and Fulfilling Personal Training Position
Just For You!"
Tim Detmer
Owner, Finish It Fitness
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 local paper that reads like this:
Personal Trainer, $26/hr, excellent attitude, people person,
growth/bonus opportunities.
So let me tell you about me, my company and the coaching position.
My name is Tim Detmer and I run a personal training studio called Finish It Fitness in Chesterfield Missouri.
My
business is dedicated to helping women and men achieve their health and
fitness goals through customized 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 at 14414 S Outer 40 right at the intersection of Hwy 40 and Hwy 141.
If you are hired for this coaching position, you’ll begin coaching clients in the studio right away.
My
studio offers 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 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, 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 3-12 month programs:
You’ll be responsible for weekly exercise sessions and keeping detailed
weekly progress reports on the clients your working with. If a client
is having challenges throughout his/her program, you’ll coach and
motivate client 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 (i.e. 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.
Required Skills
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 do need schooling in an Exercise and Sport Science field (physiology, kinesiology, nutrition, etc.)
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 Certification
Exercise Science Degree
CPR Certified
How To Apply
I’m
looking to hire the right person to hire relatively quickly. So if this
job sounds good to you, then complete the web form below and we’ll
contact you by phone. To really impress, also email your resume to info@finishitfitness.com.
Again, thanks very much for your interest,
Tim Detmer
Owner, Finish It Fitness
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 $26/hour is only the starting point. I recognize 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!
