Personal Training: When Is It The Right Time To DUMP THE GYM For Good?

Posted on 18. Sep, 2009 by Kaiser.

What’s always surprised me most about the success stories I hear coming in on the blog is how quickly and abruptly everyone takes action. These guys and gals all pick and burn the bridges once they find out about the world of Personal Training out there that doesn’t involve training in a big-box health-club. No sleazy bosses, negative co-workers, and crappy pay? Yes it’s a reality, and I guess once it becomes clear that it’s possible, there’s no going back. But the answer to “when’s the right time?” is different for everyone. Every situation is different, and even though action needs to be taken fast, it’s relative.

GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND DO IT!!! A Super-Trainer CASE STUDY and SUCCESS STORY (Learn the step-by-step process of getting out of the gym and going solo right now)!!!

I love that part – And even better is when every now and then, one of my newsletters or blog RSS’s bounce back because the trainer doesn’t work for that crappy gym where he had an email accout any more – Hahaha! Not a real testimonial, but twice as good!

THE HEALTH-CLUB SURVIVAL GUIDE!!! How To Survive The Gym And Move On To Big Things In Personal Training …

Posted on 12. Mar, 2009 by Kaiser.

Hey, have you been on the SUPER-TRAINER forum lately? There’s some good stuff happening over there so check it out. In particular, all of us trainers on the forum have come to a consensus on one important subject … It’s about whether you should work in a gym to gain experience when you first become a trainer, or if you can just skip this step and go straight to being independent. As you know, this blog is all about getting out of the toxic work environment of the big box-gyms. But on the forum, we came to a pretty ironic conclusion – that working at one of these gyms may serve a purpose after all. They’ll help you gain some quick experience before you make the jump to doing things privately, outside of one of these “fitness factories”.
