After my heart attack (I know there’s a term for it but this is shorter) I have had some very dark days, I have worked in education for the past 5 years but on returning to work found it hard to be with the kind of students are work with and left at Xmas without thinking about what Ian going to do. I have an NVQ 2 in gym based fitness and found the gym has been my sanctury and would love to work with others in my position but up date to a personal trainer is soo expensive any ideas on how I can get started

Don't get in to the false recruiting offering U a personal trainer position when Qualified.

Son did it and they put u in a gym , but u have to find uR own customers and pay for the gym.

But worse catch is they are recruiting about 1a week for the we same gym at the same time.

Hi Jeff

Thanks for reply I’ve looked at it and saw the in house training but lots of out lay for little return not that money’s the motivator I think it’s just helping stay fit that interests me.

I know what u mean. They offered son to pay money back once he started with them and had income.
