The Exercise Coach – Albuquerque Northeast

$18 - $20.00 an hour/Full-time & Part-time Positions available

If You Have Enthusiasm, A Positive Attitude and Good Communication and Fitness Skills, We Have a Fun and Fulfilling Personal Training Position Just for You!

Bottom line: You will be paid $18 - $20 per hour as a full-time TEC personal trainer/coach (part-time positions available), and you will have the opportunity to grow within the business. Your compensation is never commission-based so you are always paid for your time whether training clients or not.

Our studio offers a casual, fun environment with top-of-the-line proprietary training equipment, and the opportunity to learn the inner-workings of a successful personal training studio. We want someone who enjoys working with people and making a difference in the lives of others. . . because that's what we do.

Unlike the conventional health-club setting, The Exercise Coach® is very professional and distraction-free; offering clients what would be more accurately described as a clinical exercise, rather than the latest fitness craze in a crowded, intimidating environment.

The Exercise Coach® is dedicated to helping women and men of all ages achieve their health and fitness goals through customized physical conditioning programs and the use of our proprietary technology. Check us out: www.exercisecoach.com

Tasks You'll Be Expected to Perform:

· Develop Comprehensive Health & Fitness Programs for Clients: You'll receive coaching and training on our fitness system, and you will incorporate knowledge into safe, effective exercise programming.

· Tracking Client Progress: To ensure a client's success in our programs, you'll need to track weekly progress, current successes and challenges, review client nutrition and exercise log worksheets and more on a weekly basis. It will be your job to hold a client accountable to his/her health and fitness program to ensure the best possible results.

· Perform Fitness Evaluations: Ideally, you'll have some fitness assessment skills and can conduct body composition evaluations, bodyweight and girth measurements, blood pressure and heart rate, and various physical performance tests. You do not need previous experience, but if you do, that's a bonus. You will be trained on how to use our proprietary technology and other resources to perform required tests, and how to interpret and present the results to clients.

· Coach clients through program duration: You'll be responsible for weekly exercise sessions and keeping detailed notes on the clients you're working with. If a client is having challenges throughout his/her program, you'll coach and motivate the client and make appropriate changes to ensure consistent progress.

· Demonstrate Proper Exercise Instruction: After you complete your training, we need you to be able to provide proper instruction during a client training session and be able to provide appropriate exercises for client's needs, goals and limitations, and demonstrate, if necessary.

· Provide Ongoing Health and Fitness Education: Our clients rely on us to service all their health and fitness needs. It is your job as a personal trainer/coach to provide your clients with health and fitness education on various topics that will empower them to lead healthy lives forever. You'll be provided with educational tools and resources and will be expected to study them and speak about them with your clients.

· Lead Follow Up and Conduct Consultations: Responding to leads in an effective and timely manner is a very important aspect of any successful personal training studio. While we like to think we don't "sell" prospects on our services, you will be required to follow up with leads by phone, email, and/or text and schedule them for a free fitness consultation and trial sessions. This process is well-defined, and you will be trained on how to successfully handle this task. However, you must be comfortable on the phone and presenting pricing information to prospective clients, in addition to proposing renewal opportunities to existing clients.
