The best Personal Trainers we have ever worked with and educate have all shared 3 common personality traits.
Read on and discover….
1 – They are naturally and genuinely personable
They are able to draw upon a multitude of interpersonal skills to get their clients “on side” with the way they conduct their services and professional relationship. Our most gifted students know precisely how to play the trainer/client relationship to their advantage. In so doing, they maximise a hugely ‘profitable return’ in every sense of that term. Financially, our graduates are paid well. Emotionally, spiritually and health wise their clients are on a different plane. This is a direct result of the positive interaction, the unique coaching and education our trainers are able to impart. In short, our best students are able to generate jaw dropping results with their clients whose training objectives would never been derived without the intervention of our top trainers.
2 – They’re goal orientated
Our best personal trainers will not only set and agree goals with their clients they will also set goals for themselves whether that be with their own training or their career. It will therefore, come as no surprise, that the majority of our best students are Type A personalities. In other words, they are heavily self-driven with an abundance of intrinsic motivation. Other phrases that spring to mind include doggedness, robustness, persistence and object to a ‘no’ response. You get the picture!
3 – They simply love fitness
Whatever their background, there is a common thread that also binds our best PT’s ….. they love to engage in fitness themselves. Whether this be that they have played sport professionally or just keen to look after themselves physically their continued love of exercise and the thrill of the benefits that fitness provides is enough for them to ensure that they continue with their own exercise program regardless of the client hours they put in. This is a profession where their natural love and passion of sport and fitness simply acts as a magnet to attract clients.
In a nutshell, there you have 3 traits that all our most gifted PT’s possess. Does this sound like you?
