Personal training Is NOT a REAL Job

Its over saturated, underpaid and over 80% will quit in their first year and make less than 10K. 

Holy shit what a kick in the nuts

Ever get the feeling that you’re surrounded by negativity?

It’s like…. you’re doing your best

You’re following what you believe in…….

………you’re ALL IN

Only to have some complete “A hole” tell you the shit above here ^^^^^

OR something like what Sandra keeps being told

She replied to one of my emails saying

she keeps hearing stuff like this:

“Why are you eating that?”

“Why are you training so much like that you will get to muscly”

“…. that CAN’T be real.”

OR this one is my personal favourite……

“That PT course costs a fortune!

You will never make a living out of that …..you need to get a proper job!!”

Hold on a second now…..

A “proper” Job?

I would agree

IF

I didn’t continually speak to people

on a daily basis

who say that they simply cannot stick one more day

at their “proper” job.

I’ve had students literally crying, pouring their hearts out.

About how they are willing to walk away from 90k+ salaries

because their lives are miserable because of that “proper” job.

And these same people are willing to drop what they make to less than HALF

in search of some really simple stuff:

Happiness….. Fulfilment….. Self worth

To Feel like they’re make a difference.

What they tell me is that they got fed up with being lost down the back of a huge office

in a meaningless position furthering someone else’s dream.

They watch the clock all day waiting until it’s time to go to the gym

because that’s where they actually feel ALIVE

like they can be themselves

With likeminded people

Moving around, DOING stuff  

All the time, hoping a meeting wouldn’t be scheduled at the end of the day that would mean they miss the gym.

Sound “proper”?

The term “golden handcuffs” comes to mind.

basically money your employer gives you that stops you going anywhere anytime soon.

You get stuck, chasing money

While life goes on all around you

Bit like me when I was back in my motor trade days.

(Yes I was a sales trainer and held Honda, SEAT and KIA franchises)

The Sales teams did more than £25M worth of cars in our best year,

Over a 14-year period we achieved more than £250M in sales.

We achieved huge bonuses, crazy salaries, and awesome perks…..

…Long Hours, massive stress, sleepless nights

too much alcohol to drown the constant worry

AND Complete misery.

The only thing holding me back……

……was I had no idea how to turn my passion (fitness) into a profession.

I didn’t even think you could earn money from doing this in the beginning.

I was searching for answers in all the wrong places.

No one believed I could do it either.

When I finally figured it out

I was amazed at how fast things could be turned around

Because personal training DOES represent a real opportunity

At its best it can feel like you never work a day in your life

And done correctly there’s HUGE opportunities here

“I truly believe that anyone with a real Passion for Fitness can turn it into a real career and never have to worry about money again”

it really is up to you how far YOU go with this thing

For the RIGHT people

and part of my daily routine is to talk and guide them to their idea of success in this game

But here’s the thing: 

TONS of people want to become trainers.

Some of them for all the WRONG reasons too.

We can’t let that type of person do our course

it’s damaging to the our brand and the good name and reputation we’ve built up

since 2011 making the best trainers in Ireland.

I may as well say it the way I want to say it:

Look if you’re a lazy shit expecting that this will be a doddle you’re wrong!

The course is NOT easy.

If you want an easy cert to pass?

go to one of my competitors

they are super happy to have upwards of 30 even 40 people in a course

dance around steps and eat Sandwhiches

OR

McDonalds for lunch.

You’re guaranteed to pass.

NOT here.

You have to put the work in.

1st You LEARN IT

Then you LIVE IT

Then you LEAD IT

Being  successful Trainer or Coach IS NOT EASY

But, it’s worth it

In simple we teach you how to become the best coach you can be.

SO we’ve had to create a pretty in depth selection process.

all to find Is the “right” type of person.

if thats you?

then we want to hear from you……. 

 you will have thought this through loads.

You will have been reading everything you can get your hands on

about training and the business of training.

You’ve probably been reading emails from me for ages now wondering if this life is for you.

If not you can subscribe to them

 and get the course info all at once 

You are giving it serious thought. The serious thought it deserves.

That’s exactly what you should be doing.

If you have an idea you’d like to bounce off me believe do so
