I had my own online /in-person training business it was Lastrina Fitness LLC and had to shut down. Closed down to work at a corporate gym. Having that uncomfortable conversation with my clients to re-up their sessions is coming, and I feel the anxiety coming.
Great content, i started my own business last year and i got great ideas watching this video and started implementing them.But i do have questions though, how do you handle when your clients are canceling on their sessions due to whatever, emergencies, illnesses, travelings etc… What system you implement in cases like that when clients aren’t able to complete their sessions on time?
WORK LIFE BALANCE, BENEFITS AND VACATION TIME!!! Money and recognition is meaningless if you are working 80 hours a week and then going to training seminars. Ignoring the fact your employees have lives, family and friends that they care about outside of work will destroy your business.
Thank you for this video and all the information you're giving. I received my certification last year as a personal trainer, I just want to know how much would you say someone would probably pay for training and nutrition on a monthly basis. I just want to make sure i don't over charge or low ball myself
Finding an employer willing to 'meet an employees need for money' is getting ridiculously harder. Pay has not kept pace with production since 1979 and only continues to diverge.
I am 52 years old, a hairstylist of 30+ years and I have been burnt out in my career for about five years and have been looking for something else I could do. And realize I have no other skills, none, and then it hit me. I have been working out since I was 23 and I love working out and everything about it, why don’t I look into becoming a personal trainer. I’m dying to have a career change. It would not be full-time right now it would be only part time until I can phase out my clients from doing hair. Plus, my right hand is severely hurting me because I may have psoriatic arthritis and carpal tunnel and I have trigger finger, by the way, my right hand is my everything hand. And I have not been able to find answers on how to continue to work out when I have a hard time gripping a dumbbell or equipment. Sometimes no one has answers for me. I want to get into this so that I can help people my age an app get into the best shape of their life

Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been having a mental breakdown trying to decide between a product based and a service based business. Service based has potential to bring way more money but product is bringing more money right now. Thanks so much for making my decision easy in that I don’t have to drop the products to make the service based work. I’ll work both.
Hi Bedros, I have been following your stuff for quite some time now and really appreciate all the content you put out. I am really passionate about fitness. If I wanted to open up my own gym, would you recommend I become a personal trainer first to build up my client base or just open it up and get started right away? I would greatly appreciate your advice.
My manager bragged in front of me that she never complimented employees ever because it was their job. And she, "didn't want them to get a big head". Basically she just said, no one could have a bigger head than her. Pretty sure toilet paper was treated better than I was, and they wonder why I always want to quit.
Hi Guys, Does anyone know if a 3 month package would work? I know Bedros mentioned how its not good to do. But I'm struggling to get clients sign up front for 12 months. Could you do a month to month rate & then a 3 month upfront package separately? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
