I’ve always been interested in becoming a personal trainer, so I thought I’d finally take the opportunity and do it. I chose The Training Room because of the fast-track option along with their career support as I wanted to be qualified as quickly as possible. I wanted to work in the fitness industry as soon as possible so this was the best option for me. I’ve previously been a PE teacher and I’ve always enjoyed coaching and fitness so becoming a personal trainer was the next step for my career.
I worked behind a bar for a while and then spent some working as a PE teacher. I knew this wasn’t a long-term option for me and have been ready to start my career in fitness instructing and personal training.
The course was great! My tutor made everything enjoyable and I couldn’t fault him one bit. I really enjoyed the team atmosphere and getting to train and learn with other people. It made the learning experience so much easier.
I’m about to start a job at énergie Fitness, where I am going to work as a self-employed personal trainer. It gives me a great opportunity to build up my client base and launch my new career; I can’t wait to start training my first clients!
The career support was great, as soon as I was contacted by the team they helped me work on my CV to get it ready for applications. The evening I completed my CV I was sent job opportunities for gyms in my area. I secured interviews with those gyms set up almost instantly too! It was such a quick and thorough experience. I interviewed with énergie Fitness and was offered the job straight away!
If you are thinking of becoming a personal trainer and love fitness - just go for it! I would happily recommend The Training Room as a great place to start your personal training journey. My advice for someone who is about to start a course is work hard whilst studying; the more effort you put in to studying throughout the course, the easier you will find it…and the dreaded anatomy exam won’t seem that bad!!
