Pros
There are five level of personal trainers. Fitness coach, Specialist 1, 2, 3, and Fitness Expert. Everyone starts as a Fitness coach. Promotions through those ranks are given based on how many sessions were trained in previous quarter. To be an Expert means you make 60 percent of about $70/hour. It also means that you've proved to be successful at renewing clients, delivering results, and selling. To be an expert, you must be training at least 25-30 sessions a week. I was promoted to expert after 4 months. I average $33-40 for a 1 hour session. Train 10 clients a day 5 days a week and you're making around 80 or 90k. Time flies and you're helping out.. Not a bad gig.
Cons
It's a lot of fun but you better be good at hustling.
