Any one of you work there? How is the salary? Do you get paid by the hour or per session?

both of them are well known for having a horid crew of trainers. they are also known to screw them over a lot pay wise.

^well what are some good gyms to work for then?? Those two are the most popular here in South Florida...

 

[joe d]

golds for a chain. maybe some privately owned gym in your area.

 

[gizzle]

the privately owned gyms are usually filled with personal trainers already, and the trainers are the owners themselves lol

 

[joe d]

yes if you go to a little crap gym. there are some large privately owned gyms that staff 10+ trainers. the good trainers keep a full schedule.

I go to Family Fitess which is a local chain and they have about 8-10 trainers who have full training cards every day.

What kind of clients are you looking to specialize in? We have different trainers for different needs.

^^Chris I want to specialize working with younger men(preferably teenagers, but don't they have to be at least 18 yrs old to hire a pt??) trying to build bigger muscles or women wanting to lose weight....As I've had personal experience in these 2 areas(I gained weight/built bigger leg muscles then lost weight also)
