Is Personal Training Dying?

Mobile devices may need WiFi connection to view the video.

The Problem:  There are more health and fitness businesses than ever and many are failing and closing their doors every day.  

  • In an over-saturated market, many good trainers are struggling to get people in the doors because there is nothing that quickly distinguishes them from others doing the same thing.  
  • It's difficult enough to get a client, it's even harder to get them to stick to it and get results.  Most people think it is too hard and fail.  They fail because they aren't doing what works for them.
  •  Stiff competition for clients compounded by a high dropout rate makes keeping the doors open less likely than ever.  The truth is most people fail at traditional nutrition and fitness programs.


FACT: 50% of those who start a fitness plan QUIT within 6 months and

98% of those that are initially successful FAIL to maintain those results.


MOST of the personal trainers and nutritionists are unintentionally making us fatter, increasing our risk for disease and actually shortening our life, not lengthening it!  The truth is most personal trainers and nutritionists are actually hurting people, not helping and they don’t know it!  There is a lot of competition out there and a lot of trainers doing the same things and getting the same mediocre results.  That’s frustrating!  Clients are constantly saying eating right and exercising are so hard with very small rewards.  Most people think it is too hard and fail.


The Reason: They fail because their program is flawed from the start!


We are searching out a specific personality and skill set.  We are looking for the few that strive to be great personal trainers who also want to be contemporary nutritionists familiar with the latest research.  These few want to be recognized as the best by achieving better results for their clients than anyone else.  They want to really make an impact on the health and fitness of those they touch.  They want the best results for their clients, not only for their clients sake but, because if you get results, people will notice.  Their clients will notice, their friends will notice and want to hire them.  Other fitness professionals will want to be like these select few.  


Education is definitely a plus, but degrees are less important.  What’s more important is the value placed on continually learning, including unlearning old information proven to be wrong.


What’s important is that YOU are career minded  with a passion to help people be the best they can be. YOU have no plan B.  YOU have to make the best of being a fitness professional because YOU can’t imagine doing anything else.

We are seeking people who realize that nutrition and fitness coaching is one of the most competitive industries where everyone thinks they are a health expert and there are more gimmicks and fads out there than authentic programs.  YOU need to understand that even the most popular traditional health and fitness programs have very little success.  We are seeking professionals who are fast to adapt to new research and able to discern fact from fiction.  YOU need to realize that just because everyone is doing it and have been doing it for years, doesn’t make it the right thing to continue to do. 


Health and fitness is changing.  Experience is great but, in this field, methods can quickly become antiquated.  Therefore, we need people who aren’t afraid to contradict the accepted standard of care and embrace science that goes against consensus.  That means specifically embracing the low carb high fat lifestyle.
