There’s something about money that gets people talking! That’s what happened with my first post on $100 training sessions last week. In that post I set-up the subject and it resulted in some strong input from readers. Just like last time, I’ll open by saying that money’s not everything when you’re an independent trainer.

I once heard that price is relative to the cost of everything else on sale in the marketplace – well with Personal Training it gets even more tricky than that.
