This essentially means that a qualified personal trainer can now work as much (or as little!) as they want.

Personal Trainers can often be seen as an inspiring figure and someone to look up to for clients. This can also lead to a high level of job satisfaction through helping people achieve goals and often being the catalyst for a positive impact on clients’ lives.
