Podcasts about personal trainers

It's a special bonus episode with Willem Smit—the leader and creative force behind the Dutch music collective Personal Trainer. This is revolving group of amazing musicians who have released three critically heralded albums—including their latest entitled “Human Assholes”. The title alone should be enough to make you curious! Right? Nevertheless, Willem and Personal Trainer have received pounds of enthusiastic praise from the likes of Pitchfork, Anthony Fantano (The Needle Drop), UPROXX, and many more. Proving that this is more than just another brilliant record from Bella Union Records. This is something that is really special.

Dr. Felecia Froe opens this solo episode with a confession that has nothing to do with money: she has a personal trainer, and she has absolutely no idea what she's doing at the gym. She just shows up, does what he says, and leaves sweaty. That worked fine until Tony (my trainer) announces he's going on vacation, and Felecia realizes her entire fitness "plan" lives in his head, not hers. That small panic cracks open a much bigger question: how many women are doing the exact same thing with their money?  In this episode, Felecia connects her gym epiphany to a striking UBS statistic about married women and financial decision-making, then walks through the difference between delegating and abdicating, introduces her "vanish test" for figuring out where you actually stand, and gives you three simple questions to start asking whoever manages your money, whether that's a spouse, an advisor, or "my guy." It's not a call to fire your professionals. It's a call to stop being a passenger in your own financial life. 00:00 – The Trainer Confession 04:24 – Delegating vs. Abdicating 06:11 – The Vanish Test 08:09 – The "My Guy Handles That" Investor 09:56 – What Felecia Actually Did 11:16 – Free Guide & Call to Action   You've worked hard to build your career. Now let's build wealth that outlives it. You were born to build more than just wealth. You were born to lead, inspire, and rise. At Wealth B-Hers, we're defining what it means to be financially fearless.

In dieser Folge sprechen Host Andreas und zwei Gäste aus dem Wissenschaftlichen Beirat des Bundesverbands Personal Training e.V. über eine Frage, die in jeder Trainerausbildung und jedem Kundengespräch mitschwingt: Was ist eigentlich eine gute Studie? Sascha Schrey von der IST-Hochschule für Management und Jens Vatter, Leiter des GluckerKollegs, beleuchten das Thema aus Sicht von Wissenschaft und Ausbildungspraxis. Erfahre, woran du methodisch saubere Forschung erkennst, welche Warnsignale dich schon nach wenigen Minuten skeptisch machen sollten und wie du seriöse Wissenschaft von Marketingstudien unterscheidest, die sich nur einen wissenschaftlichen Anstrich geben. Außerdem verraten die beiden, wo du gute und frei zugängliche Studien findest und welche hartnäckigen Branchenmythen auf schlecht gemachten oder falsch interpretierten Studien beruhen. Ein wertvoller Impuls für alle Personal Trainer, die ihre Arbeit auf ein solides Fundament stellen und ihre Kunden mit fundierten Argumenten überzeugen wollen. Viel Spaß beim Reinhören!

Die Hose wird locker, aber die Waage zeigt dieselbe Zahl wie letzte Woche. Genau an diesem Punkt hören die meisten auf – und zwar oft kurz bevor es sichtbar wird. In diesem Video zeige ich dir vier Dinge, die gerade in deinem Körper passieren und die keine Waage anzeigen kann: warum Wasser den Platz von Fett einnimmt, warum Muskeln weniger Raum brauchen, was Stress mit deinem Gewicht macht und warum dein Bauch von innen schrumpft, bevor du es außen siehst. Am Ende bekommst du drei einfache Messregeln, mit denen du deinen Fortschritt ehrlich beurteilst – ohne dich von der Waage aus dem Konzept bringen zu lassen.

In today's episode we discuss doing cardio IN A TRUCK (wut?), knee pain, tracking your lifts, getting a bicep peak, shoulder pain, sugar cravings and more!All links: Swolenormous Links

Between us, James and I have spent 27 years working in the fitness industry.So for this episode, we decided to try and condense as much of that experience as possible into 40 minutes.We each brought five lessons to the table. No idea what the other person had written down, no carefully coordinated list, just the things that have stuck with us most after years of working with clients and building fitness businesses.And interestingly, almost none of them were about exercise selection, programming or nutrition.We talk about:Why you need to stop trying to be the cleverest PT in the roomThe difference between selling Personal Training and solving someone's problemsWhy we both wish we'd collected more reviews earlierHow to make sure your business actually rewards you as it growsWhy a full diary doesn't automatically mean you've built a successful businessTaking time off before you desperately need itWhy “I don't know” can sometimes be one of the best answers you give a clientThe importance of getting your policies right from day oneWhy your goal should be to create clients who don't actually need youAnd why I wish I'd taken myself a little less seriously when I first startedThese are the lessons that tend to come from making mistakes, getting things wrong and spending years figuring out what actually matters.Hopefully, we can save you a bit of that trial and error.If you're a Personal Trainer looking to build a better business, become a better coach and make the industry work for you over the long term, there should be plenty in this one for you.You can find me on Instagram at @mattrobinsonpt or visit mattrobinsoncoaching.com if you'd like some help building a high-profit, low-stress fitness business.

In this short Ask Brian episode, Brian explains why many personal trainers struggle to grow through social media. He explores the difference between presenting yourself as the hero and positioning yourself as the trusted guide who helps clients achieve their goals. Brian also breaks down the three essential forms of content—attraction, nurture and conversion—and explains how choosing a clear niche helps the algorithm connect your content with the right audience. Shownotes 00:00 – Introduction and today's Ask Brian question 00:16 – The biggest positioning mistake personal trainers make 00:37 – Why your client should be the hero of the story 01:16 – Be Dumbledore, not Harry Potter: positioning yourself as the guide 01:44 – What your last 10 social media posts reveal 02:42 – The three content types: attraction, nurture and conversion 03:29 – The shotgun versus sniper approach to social media platforms 03:49 – Creating valuable content for people discovering you for the first time 05:20 – Strong hooks, useful content and demonstrating expertise 06:40 – How nurture content builds trust 06:55 – Why you should give people the "what," not the complete "how" 08:30 – Conversion content and presenting your coaching offer 08:36 – Three questions for auditing your current content strategy 08:57 – Why asking for the sale too early limits growth 09:22 – The last-10-posts test: does your page offer immediate value? 09:51 – "Riches in the niches": why specificity helps you stand out 10:20 – Building a consistent mix of Reels and carousel posts 10:53 – How to make the social media algorithm work for you Key takeaways Position the client as the hero and yourself as their experienced guide. Balance attraction, nurture and conversion content according to your current goal. Give your audience clarity about what is holding them back without overwhelming them with every implementation detail. Solve a specific problem for a clearly defined audience instead of discussing fitness in general. Review your most recent posts from the perspective of someone encountering your page for the first time. Build trust and demonstrate value before repeatedly asking people to purchase your coaching.

Hate-Kommentare sind ein Problem als Fitness Coach, Ernährungsberater & Personal Trainer. In dieser Podcast Episode erfährst du, wie du damit umgehst. Wer sichtbar wird, wird beleidigt - und ein einziger negativer Kommentar wiegt oft schwerer als zehn nette. Genau daran scheitern Coaches, bevor sie richtig angefangen haben. In dieser Folge geht es um: ✅ die drei Gruppen von Menschen, die auf deine Sichtbarkeit reagieren ✅ warum Hate nichts mit dir zu tun hat - und was passiert, wenn du dich davon steuern lässt ✅ die einfache Frage, mit der du entscheidest, welches Feedback du überhaupt ernst nimmst ✅ wie du Hate-Kommentare als Glaubenssätze deiner potenziellen Kunden nutzt ✅ warum Mindset auf jedem Level der limitierende Faktor ist - nicht dein Fachwissen ✅ das Umfeld, das dich durch solche Phasen trägt Mehr zum YSMentoring:

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Programming gets easier the moment the lower body stops feeling like a blur of Latin words. We walk you through the exact muscle groups you need for the SUF CPT and make them stick with clear landmarks, real coaching cues, and a few memory tricks you will actually remember under pressure. If you have ever mixed up tendons vs ligaments, forgotten where the hamstrings sit behind the knee, or wondered why a seated calf raise feels different than standing, you are in the right place. We start with the quadriceps, including why rectus femoris is different from the vastus muscles and how the patella, quad tendon, and patellar ligament connect the story. Then we flip to the posterior chain and make the hamstrings practical: how to identify the medial “two guitar strings,” where biceps femoris shows up laterally, and how foot rotation can bias what you feel during a leg curl. We also cover the adductors (longus, magnus, brevis) with an easy size-based naming framework, plus why adductor magnus earns its reputation as a powerhouse. From there we hit the glutes with a fiber-focused view of gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus, including why pronunciation matters for the exam and for sounding like a confident coach. We close with the lower leg: gastrocnemius vs soleus, peroneals vs fibularis terminology, and the BLT mnemonic for brevis, longus, tertius. If you want better personal training anatomy, smarter lower body exercise selection, and stronger coaching confidence, press play, subscribe, share this with a training buddy, and leave a review with the muscle group you are mastering next.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

Most personal trainers fail because they master the mechanics of exercise but completely ignore the high-stakes psychology of holding a client's trust. Personal training veteran Charles Gardner spent over two decades in the trenches discovering that keeping a client on your roster for years has almost nothing to do with optimal set-and-rep schemes. From surviving early career failure in California to managing high-profile clients in a military town, Gardner reveals the unspoken rules of client retention, navigating the fragile egos of Type A personalities, and building a sustainable business that survives any economic downturn. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION The "Thumb" Leadership Rule: How an unconventional piece of childhood advice built the foundation for a 25-year career in the trenches. Surviving the Failure Reset: The brutal reality of moving to California, getting chewed up, and rebuilding a coaching business from nothing. The Life PR Framework: Why chasing traditional barbell maxes with executive and older clients guarantees injury, and how shifting to health-marker PRs builds lifelong compliance. Type A Traps: How to aggressively manage hyper-compliant clients before they overtrain themselves into catastrophic tissue injuries. The Grace Capital System: The exact boundary-setting strategy that prevents burnout while earning bulletproof client loyalty when life emergencies hit. Building Real-World Equity: Why relying on social media lead generation leaves coaches broke, and how in-person observation in the weight room quietly secures high-value referrals. MEET THE GUEST Charles Gardner is the founder and head coach of Synergy Strength Systems in Huntsville, Alabama. Backed by a degree in industrial and organizational psychology and 25 years of hands-on experience, Gardner has coached everyone from competitive athletes and high-ranking city officials to 70-year-olds reclaiming their health. His career stands as proof that lasting authority in the fitness industry isn't given through online algorithms—it is earned through deep communication, relentless observation, and decades of real-world results.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!If you have ever hesitated when a client asks, “What muscle is that supposed to work?”, this shoulder anatomy breakdown is for you. We make the case that the most important skill for becoming a qualified personal trainer is mastering anatomy, because confidence is not a vibe. It is earned, and clients can tell when you have it. When you sound unsure, people default to objections like “It is too expensive” or “Let me think about it.” When you can speak clearly about the body, trust goes up and sales friction goes down.We share what we see trainers struggle with most, from assessments and programming around pain to getting clients and charging what they are worth. Then we teach the shoulder the practical way: by mapping the 17 shoulder muscles and putting them into a study order you can actually remember. You will hear how pectoralis major and the deltoid each have three distinct parts, why biceps brachii and triceps brachii matter at the shoulder, and how the trapezius, serratus anterior, rhomboids, and latissimus dorsi shape scapular control in real training.We also drill the rotator cuff muscles (supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis) and the big takeaway that matters for programming and shoulder pain: their number one job is to stabilize and center the glenohumeral joint. If you are studying for a CPT exam, refining your personal training assessments, or tightening your exercise programming, this is a clean, repeatable framework you can use immediately. Subscribe, share this with a trainer friend, and leave a review with the shoulder muscle you want us to cover next.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

On this episode of Next Level: Good Vibes Only, Jessica and Darren Salquist sit down with Hannah Talbot, founder of Anam Cara Healing Center and a soul care practitioner whose work is built on a simple, radical idea: the power to heal already lives within you.Hannah shares the story behind her calling, the quiet inner voice that told her there had to be another way, and the leap of faith it took to follow it, even when that meant risking nearly everything to build something new in Spokane. Along the way she and the Salquists get into the hero's journey and shadow work, what it really means to come home to yourself, and how our hardest chapters can become the very gifts we return with to help others. Hannah opens up with remarkable honesty about her own path, so listen with care, this is a tender and vulnerable conversation.They also talk about the community Hannah has built at Anam Cara, a membership-based refuge of classes, healing sessions, workshops, and gatherings, with a retreat that reached all the way to Bali, and the mindfulness movement she is growing right here in the Inland Northwest. Whether you are deep in your own healing or just beginning to listen to that quiet voice inside, this is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and remember yourself.Learn more about Hannah's work at Anam Cara Healing Center: https://www.anamcarahealing.center/Sign up for the Heroic Philosophers Notes: click hereFollow Darren Salquist, Life Changer, Self-Mastery + Heroic Performance Coach, PTA and Personal Trainer on IG: @salquid LinkedIn: Darren SalquistFollow Jessica Salquist, Life Changer, Nationally Board Certified Reflexologist, Heroic Performance Coach and Executive Leader on IG: @reflexologyjediFB: Find us by nameFind us both on IG @nextlevelreflexologycoaching @reflexologyjedi @healthyaging_itsathingWellness + Coaching — Next Level Coaching and ReflexologyWebsite: www.nextleveltransformationalcoaching.comJoin us at CoreFitinc: https://corefitinc.com/

What would you do if tomorrow you had no clients, no testimonials, no social media following, no website and no email list?Just your PT qualification, your experience and access to a gym floor.In this episode, James and I set ourselves a simple challenge:Get 10 Personal Training clients in 90 days, starting from zero.We break down exactly how we would approach it, what we would focus on first, and just as importantly, what we would completely ignore.We cover things like:Why becoming an influencer would be nowhere near the top of our listWhy speaking to people on the gym floor still gives you one of the biggest advantages available to a PTThe daily targets we would set for conversations and new contactsHow we would turn those conversations into consultations and paying clientsWhere a simple front-end offer can help reduce risk and make it easier for someone to get startedHow we would use referrals, local businesses and gym staff to create more opportunitiesWhy training in the gym you work in can become a genuine business-building activityWhat to do if you reach week five, six or seven and things still aren't moving quickly enoughThis isn't about chasing followers, building complicated funnels or trying ten different marketing strategies at once.It's about focusing on the opportunities directly in front of you, building relationships, collecting data and staying consistent long enough for the numbers to start working in your favour.If you're a newer Personal Trainer, struggling to build momentum, or you simply want to strip your business back to the fundamentals, this episode will give you a very practical place to start.You can find me on Instagram at @mattrobinsonpt or visit mattrobinsoncoaching.com if you'd like some help building a high-profit, low-stress fitness business.

Are you looking for an online personal trainer but aren't sure where to start? Maybe you want to build strength, lose weight, improve your fitness, or feel better in your body after 40—but you don't know what type of workouts you should be doing or how to find the right coach. In this episode, Michele Riechman with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy, Health Coach, and Online Personal Trainer, explains what women over 40 should look for in an online personal trainer and why strength training is one of the most important things you can do as you age. You'll learn: Why strength training is essential for women over 40 How building muscle can improve confidence, energy, and overall health What makes a good online personal trainer Questions to ask before hiring a fitness coach Why personalized workouts are important as your body changes How to start strength training safely whether you are a beginner or more advanced If you are looking for an online personal trainer for women over 40 who can help you build strength, create healthy habits, and feel confident in your body, this episode is for you. Mentioned in this episode:

You've probably been told at some point that you need to find your niche.But I think there's something more important that most Personal Trainers barely think about at all:Your marketplace.In this episode, I explain the difference between a niche and a marketplace, why finding the right places to be visible can be far more valuable than endlessly refining your ideal client avatar, and how I used this approach to generate clients throughout my own PT career.I'll walk you through five marketplaces you can start thinking about within your own fitness business, including:The marketplace that could already exist inside your gymHow to find local “starving crowds”Why an “able audience” can become incredibly valuable over timeHow I used golf clubs and local businesses to consistently generate enquiriesThe online marketplaces that can help you reach people already looking for what you sellWhy simply being present isn't enough — you need to be visibleNone of this requires a huge social media following, complicated funnels or some ridiculously specific niche.It's about putting yourself and your business in the places where the right people already spend their time, then showing up consistently enough to become the obvious choice.If you're a Personal Trainer or Fitness Professional looking for a more practical way to generate leads and build a high-profit, low-stress fitness business, this episode is for you.You can find me on Instagram at @mattrobinsonpt or visit mattrobinsoncoaching.com if you'd like some help with your fitness business.

The Best Personal Trainer Client Acquisition Strategies for InstagramEpisode 441 | How Personal Trainers Get Your First 5 Clients on Instagram Without Going ViralYou have been told to post for 60 days, build know-like-and-trust, make a freebie, and then DM 20 to 50 strangers a day until someone books a call. That model builds you a second job, not a business. In this episode I break down the three client acquisition strategies my clients and I actually use to get paid every day, the Conversation Starter, the Low Ticket Lead System, and the Webinar Low Ticket Funnel. No spam DMs, no high-pressure sales calls, no pretending to be someone's best friend so they'll ask about your program. You'll also get the customer-versus-client distinction that changes how you build your list, why free lead magnets stopped converting, and the exact ROAS targets to hit before you scale ad spend.What You'll Discover:The difference between a customer and a client, and why building an email list of buyers beats a list of freebie downloadersWhy no funnel will save a vague offer, and how to define the leveraged components of your premium programHow the Conversation Starter turns your content into inbound DMs from the 3% of your audience who are already ready to buyWhy 100 buyers will out-produce 800 free leads, and how low ticket offers convert at 8 to 10% versus roughly 2%How to build a low ticket front-end offer that offsets your ad spend from day oneThe webinar low ticket funnel to run if lower customer volume or ad spend makes you nervousThe 90-day focus rule and the front-end and back-end ROAS numbers to hit before scalingTimestamps00:00 — Three client acquisition strategies without pushy sales or spam DMs00:44 — Who I am and why I teach this02:19 — Customer vs. client: the distinction that changes your whole list strategy03:11 — Why I build an email list of low ticket buyers03:57 — The traditional model: 60 days of value, a freebie, and 50 DMs a day05:13 — Why that model breaks coaches (12 to 18 hour days, unpaid)06:55 — Before any funnel: your premium offer has to be dialed in07:51 — The trap of turning your in-person job into an online job08:36 — Defining the leveraged components of your offer11:38 — Real offer structure examples: onboarding, async check-ins, phased reviews12:41 — Specific problem, specific outcome, specific person14:27 — Strategy 1: The Conversation Starter14:42 — Why we've been indoctrinated to think selling harms people15:38 — Free is never free: time, energy, effort16:27 — When people pay, they pay attention17:15 — Six to 14 touch points and seven hours of consumption17:51 — The free dog food analogy18:19 — Energy exchange and emotional investment20:27 — The 3% of your audience who are already buyers21:55 — Conversion content that produces DMs22:15 — The four buyer questions you have to answer23:16 — Gating your old PDF and why speed to connection matters24:14 — Using a customized enrollment call as your Conversation Starter25:16 — Moving DMs to a call, and revenue in three to 14 days26:45 — Combining organic with $2 to $5 test ads27:08 — Strategy 2: The Low Ticket Lead System28:00 — The 10-minute workout example and the ascension point28:47 — How low ticket buyers offset your ad spend immediately30:03 — Front-end offer ideas: recipes, mobility, low back pain stretches31:36 — 800 leads for a VSL vs. 100 buyers for the same 10 clients31:57 — 2% conversion vs. 8 to 10% conversion32:22 — Why posting 5 to 10 times a day burns you out33:11 — 14,000 views vs. 148 views on identical posts33:36 — Strategy 3: The Webinar Low Ticket Funnel34:20 — Putting a low ticket offer on your webinar thank you page34:53 — How to set up your traffic campaign and what to optimize for35:30 — Pick two funnels and run them for 90 days35:41 — Front-end 1-2 ROAS, back-end 4-8 ROAS, unlimited ad budget36:02 — Tracking the metrics that actually matter37:43 — Join me live for Simple ScalingResources MentionedSimple Scaling (free live training) — How I turn $9 into consistent 50K months: https://ptprofitformula.com/simplescalingPT Profit Formula — https://ptprofitformula.comThe Offer Lab — the section of my client portal where coaches position their premium offer and build their Conversation StarterThe Implementation Hub — where the offer components, delivery structure, and metrics tracking liveTelegram — used for async client check-ins in a one-to-many way: https://telegram.orgReady for the Next Step?If you want the full system, offer positioning, the three funnels, and the metrics tracking that ties them together, the PT Profit Accelerator is where we build it with you.

We expose the controversial overbooking policies at high-end gyms like Third Space and run through the viral list of things that irrationally annoy personal trainers, from lifting belts on lat pulldowns to atrocious gym-floor etiquette and lazy client excuses. Plus, we dive into athletic performance, reviewing the camera-based jump-testing tech (Metric Jump) for runners.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!AI is turning everyday work into a shortcut button, and that's exactly why we're asking a risky question: is AI making us dumb, or is it exposing who never built real skill in the first place? We break this down through the Dunning-Kruger effect and a wild true story that shows what happens when confidence beats competence. The point isn't to fear AI, it's to stop using it like a mask for weak fundamentals. We get specific about what “sloppy AI” looks like in the fitness industry: ads with obviously broken images, impossible anatomy, and generic messaging that kills trust in seconds. If you're a personal trainer, online coach, or gym owner, you already know how fast people scroll and how quickly they judge. We talk about the simple standards that protect your brand, from proofreading and human review to writing outreach that proves you did your homework and actually care who you're talking to. Then we zoom out to the bigger career move: doubling down on foundations. Anatomy, programming, assessment, pain red flags, and knowing when to refer out aren't optional if you want to be excellent and get paid like it. AI can help you study, organize, and execute, but it can't replace reps in the trenches, mentorship, and the humility to keep learning. If you want AI to make you sharper instead of louder, listen through, then subscribe, share this with a trainer who needs it, and leave a quick review so more coaches find the long-game path.

You got the body scan… and suddenly you're spiraling. In this follow-up episode, I'm bringing back Sam Christy, registered dietitian, body-neutral personal trainer, and founder of Triple A Wellness, to unpack my personal trainer assessment through a very different lens. Because here's the thing: A body scan can give you data… but it can't tell you your worth, your health, or your potential as a runner. Sam walks us through: What body scans actually measure (and what they don't) The limitations and inaccuracies of common assessments The red flags to watch for in fitness evaluations What a body-neutral personal trainer looks at instead How to navigate feelings of shame, guilt, or panic after getting your results If you've ever walked out of an assessment questioning your body, your training, or your health… this episode is your reality check (and your permission slip). Because you deserve support that builds you up, not breaks you down. This episode originally aired March 18, 2024.

The body of 39-year-old personal trainer Elena Moore was discovered nearly a week after she went missing, and now a full week later, police still don’t have any answers into how or why Moore died. Preliminary autopsy results show no physical trauma and did not reveal a cause of death. Also, several cryptic social media posts made by Moore in the months and weeks leading up to her death suggest she was suffering a painful heartbreak, although police have said Moore’s husband, who reported her missing, is not a person of interest in her death.
