Working at Planet Fitness (For Personal Trainers) 

Thank you for the video! I’m starting as a trainer at planet fitness tomorrow and this was very informative

For folks just seeing this, can verify, just became a personal trainer here. You have so much freedom and you, in literal terms, just need about 6-8 workouts prepared per session, and then you can just throw a few custom exercises at people during Design Your Program stuff. The whole job is encouragement, and knowing good form. Everything else is secondary.

I asked someone at PF and he gets a salary as a PT, but like you said , things may have change since the time you did it . And it doesn’t matter how many ppl singed up, you still get the salary. But for me , I can’t do that , I learn just by working out with friends I knew by providing training I did with myself with trial and error. I provide training that help me get to where I am at and it’s so much easier when you look like what you do and that’s what draws people to me asking questions and getting them to sign up . But I just couldn’t work for a company .

If you did not have training minimums,then it would be like a regular job. But I think I want to hear more about the sales minumums more,since most corporate gym require it

Thank you so much for this. I just had my interview today and got hired on the spot. This is definitely going to be a stepping stone for me as I’m a new personal trainer and I want the experience and full schedule. My interviewer told me that during my training I’ll be shadowing personal trainers which I think is great. Hoping I have a great experience and can go on to bigger and better gyms!

Hey. I. Just. Come. Of this video. Where in pa. Just I. Did Get. Amsoory 😅

If your brand new to personal training then PF might be okay but it should only be a stepping stone. Regardless of what people say, there is a lot of money to be made in training. I started with an hourly rate of $45 dollars and now I charge $115 and keep 80% of that.

Thanks so much for info! I am new to personal training and planet fitness sounds like a great stepping stone just to get started because I'm still little unsure in areas

Thank you this sounds exactly like what I need, I just started training 2 clients 10 weeks ago, and am about to start at PF as a trainer as I'm working on my NASM. Now I'm alot more confident with my second interview coming up in 2 days wish me luck

thanks for the heads up goal is to be a trainer not someone who shows how to use a machine lol

Dont stay at pf for more then a year as a pt working at pf stepping stone

The PF in my area is very disability unfriendly. I wonder what kind of training they put you through for that.
