Podcasts about personal training

In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel Beversdorf talks with strength coach James Lederach, MS, CSCS, about the deeper side of coaching and how helping someone get stronger often means helping them grow as a person. Together, they explore the benefits of strength development for adults and kids, training that supports rather than interferes with sport, the downsides of early sport specialization in youth, and the broader life lessons that strength training offers beyond physical health and performance.James and Laurel reflect on how training develops resilience, self-reliance, and emotional steadiness for both kids and adults. They discuss how good coaching balances structure with empathy, how strength training teaches self-trust, and why the most meaningful outcomes of training have less to do with performance and more to do with who we become through the process.SITE WIDE SALE — Save $$ on our Movement Logic TutorialsFOLLOW @MovementLogicTutorials on InstagramRESOURCESBell, 2018; PMID: 30135085DiFiori, 2014; PMID: 24463910Post, 2017; PMID: 28288281Post, 2016; PMID: 27807260VISIT James Lederach's Gym Heavy Athletics FOLLOW @james_lederach on Instagram

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!If you've ever passed a certification and still felt lost on the gym floor, this conversation will sound uncomfortably familiar—and surprisingly hopeful. We sit down with Anna, a Cincinnati trainer who went from textbook confidence to real-world clarity, trading fear-based assessments and complicated plans for simple, effective coaching that clients actually feel.We start with her early days at Crunch, where 30-minute sessions exposed the limits of memorized protocols. Moving to Lifetime changed the trajectory: peer-led discovery sessions, floor observations, and direct feedback sharpened her coaching lens. Anna explains how learning by watching seasoned trainers, then being corrected, built a skill set no chapter could deliver. That shift is the throughline of the episode: master core movement patterns, keep programming competent and flexible, and use your freed-up attention to connect, listen, and guide.From there, we dive into building a business without gimmicks. Anna breaks down a client-first model: start in a rented space, create clean discovery processes, charge with confidence, and build a referral network with physical therapists and chiropractors to keep clients safe. We also take aim at common industry traps—like misusing the overhead squat to scare people into buying—and outline a better standard: test only what you'll retest, train what the goal requires, and treat psychology as part of the program. You'll hear practical scripts, mindset shifts for pricing, and a clear plan for standing out in a crowded market by doing the quiet, expert things most skip.If you're a trainer wrestling with imposter thoughts, or you're ready to go independent without getting overwhelmed, this episode gives you the blueprint: simplify, collaborate, and show up.

We live in a world where mirrors multiply — in studios, selfies, and in our own minds. From leggings designed to contour every curve to the endless scroll of “post or it didn't happen,” movement has become something we perform instead of something we feel.In this episode, Adrienne, Natalie, and Nora get real (and a little ridiculous) about gym culture, mirror obsession, and the “booty-era” of social media. But beneath the laughs is a deeper reflection:What happens when the mirror stops showing us who we are and starts showing us who we think we should be?Through the lens of yoga and self-study, we explore how to move from self-display to self-expression — to reclaim movement as something sacred, soulful, and deeply personal. Because just because it looks like you're doing it… doesn't mean you are.Send us a textWanna be on the show?

Send us a textMost people think they're alive because they're busy. But busyness is not the same as growth—and if you're not growing in Christ, you're already spiritually dead.In this power-packed episode, Chelsey exposes the hard truth from Ephesians 4: growth isn't optional—it's the evidence of new life in Christ. She unpacks how our old patterns, perfectionism, vanity metrics, and desire to perform are actually signs of spiritual deadness masked in hustle. Through stories of gardening, parenting, and surrender, she shares how only the Holy Spirit can produce lasting transformation.Inside this episode:Why your striving may be a symptom of spiritual deathHow growth in the Kingdom always begins with surrenderThe gardening metaphor that reframes your walk with GodWhat keeps high-achieving women stuck in cycles of burnoutWhy High Level Wife is not a Chelsey show—it's God's movementThis is your invitation to die to self, so you can truly come alive.

When group training isn't hitting the mark, could personal training be the answer?Welcome to Gym Marketing Made Simple, the show that helps boutique gym owners grow their member base, increase revenue, and streamline operations — without the chaos of complex marketing systems.Episode HighlightsThis episode tackles one of the most significant decisions gym owners face: whether to offer personal training in their studio. Tommy Allen breaks down what to consider before making the move — from coach structure and compensation to programming models that protect long-term stability. Learn how to design a setup that keeps clients happy, coaches motivated, and revenue steady.Key TakeawaysPersonal training can be a smart move when group sessions don't meet every client's needs.Two key models exist: coach-owned programming vs. in-house programming, and only one ensures long-term client retention.Normalizing pay across training types helps maintain fairness and prevent revenue imbalance.Internal programming supported by software tools (TrueCoach, TeamBuildr, SemiPrivatePro) keeps systems organized and scalable.A unified compensation model motivates coaches to contribute across all training sessions.Episode Chapters00:00 Intro00:35 Considerations for Offering Personal Training02:00 Implementing Internal Programming and Technology 03:34 Normalizing Trainer Compensation Across Revenue ChannelsCall to ActionIf you're ready to simplify your systems and improve profitability, check out more episodes of Gym Marketing Made Simple and learn how to make smarter decisions for your gym's growth.Supporting Information

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Want a steady stream of five-star reviews, real referrals, and a calendar that fills itself without paid ads? We unpack a simple, ethical system that trades meaningful value for timely action, guiding clients to leave reviews while they're already engaged and excited. You'll hear how to personalize outreach, make the incentive irresistible, and remove friction so testimonials flow consistently—organically boosting your Google and Yelp rankings for “personal trainer near me.”We walk through the full lifecycle: crafting offers that clients actually want, scheduling comp sessions tied to reviews, and turning that moment into a clear referral ask that doesn't feel pushy. Then we layer in a light-touch nurture engine—weekly emails with nutrition tips, fiber and protein guidance, and real-world meal ideas—because most buyers convert after multiple touchpoints. The theme is simple: action beats perfection. Test now, get feedback, improve your scripts, and hit January with systems that already work.Programming gets equal time. If your gym runs 45-minute blocks, we show how to adapt the CCA framework without crushing your main lift. Learn to pair core patterns with complementary moves, protect rest for performance, and finish with a short, client-driven “fun” block that scratches the itch for sweat and novelty without sabotaging progress. We explain the psychology behind finishers, how to educate clients on rest and RPE, and how to stay creative inside real-world constraints so results stay front and center.Along the way, we invite you to tap into our community and hands-on seminars where we sharpen assessments, soft tissue work, programming, sales, and confidence.

But what happens when we slow down, trust the process, and remember that yoga isn't about the timeline—it's about the transformation.In this week's episode of How Yoga Changed My Life a Podcast, Adrienne, Natalie, and Nora dive into one of the most common questions we hear as trainers and teachers: “How long will it take me to feel stronger?

Let's talk about upper body training. Pilates and personal training principles are quite similar when discussing the lower body or the core but when it comes to the upper body, there are some distinct differences. Today Brian leads the discussion with his take on upper body strategies in the personal training environment. Starting with posterior shoulder strength and endurance and progressing to anterior shoulder strength in functional moves, Brian creates a clear framework for optimum upper body support. Using Brian's principles, Nora translates the moves into the Pilates environment. This episode is full of practical tips for any movement professional!Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Most trainers don't fail for lack of passion; they fail because no one showed them how to turn knowledge into coached reps and coached reps into confident sales. We walk straight through the credential maze—C-tier certs like NASM/ACE/ISSA, nonprofit mainstays NSCA/ACSM, the CSCS and kinesiology degrees, and why applied internships and mentorships sit at the top when it comes to getting hired and keeping clients safe.We share the hard numbers managers see on the floor, the real reasons accreditation doesn't equal readiness, and the practical skills that move the needle: assessments that drive programming, modifications for common injuries, communication that calms nerves, and simple, ethical closing frameworks that make pricing feel natural. You'll hear how case-based learning (think: “Pickleball Pete” with lateral elbow pain) builds pattern recognition fast, why unsupervised “experience” can cement bad habits, and how structured supervision turns you into the coach clients trust with complex goals and limitations.If you're sitting on a C-tier cert right now, we outline an honest path: pass quickly, get floor time, stack hands-on seminars, and document real outcomes. If you're targeting elite clubs like Equinox or Lifetime, we show exactly what hiring managers look for—competence, composure, and a clear system for assessment and progression. Along the way, we unpack who actually owns the big cert brands, how marketing shapes perception, and why the best question isn't “Is it accredited?” but “Will this help me coach a real human on Monday?”Ready to build a career, not just collect acronyms?
