Personal Trainer Job Description: Knowing What is Expected

Your Personal Trainer job description should be your best friend. Here's why.

In any industry, whether it be retail, the food industry, or Wall Street, you are sure to have some sort of list of what your job responsibilities are and what is expected of you day in and day out.

The same is true in the industries of health and fitness. As a Personal Trainer, your initial list may be provided by the company that you work for. With a company provided document, the hope is that the organization can build consistency in the product and service that is provided by their employees.

What I have come to enjoy is that in starting a personal training business, you can and should add your own bullet points to what you expect of yourself in that job description. Your ultimate success will be a result of achieving the extra details that you have added on your own.

Your company-provided job description may list items like:

  • Provide customer service
  • Dress in appropriate uniform
  • Assist health club members in fitness orientations
  • Correct form and technique on the fitness floor
  • Instruct group exercise classes
  • Design and implement fitness programs
  • and more

So, what should you add to your Personal Trainer job description? It depends on how you look at it. What I suggest is writing each of the following questions at the top of a few blank sheets of paper.

  • What do the members of my health club or studio expect of me?
  • What do my Personal Training clients expect of me?
  • What does my fitness manager expect of me?
  • What does my general manager expect of me?
  • What do the other Personal Trainers in the facility expect of me?
  • What do I expect of myself?

Take a few moments and do this now. Write as much as you can. There is no right or wrong. Everything that you write could be vital to your future personal trainer success.

Now, with your initial list and the answers that you have on your newer sheets of paper, you have come closer to a finalized Personal Trainer job description. It should never really be final, as everyday you should think of some area that you work to improve upon.

It is also important to note that if you are in business for yourself and do not have a fitness manager, general manager, etc., then you are your own fitness manager. You are your own general manager. Much of what you wrote should still ring true.

Make a fresh copy of your entire list and put it somewhere that you can see it everyday. All of what you wrote, if you remind yourself of it's importance each day, will guarantee your Personal Trainer success.
