Great video mate. Just about to start my PT qualification with the long term goal being to work online so very insightful showing the pro's/con's of both. Smart decision on your end taking it online. 2021 will definitely be a great year in terms of your KZread channel and online business!

Great info

Thanks for the insight of transitioning from PT to OC. How do you initially get clients for online coaching when you started?

You present yourself very well, obviously very knowledgeable. Financially better off, looking at clients that can’t train for long periods of an hour i.e. rehabilitation of hips shoulders knees only manage 3045 minutes. This means you can charge a higher rate for professional service for short period of time in person.

Great Video! Would be interested to see what your processes are for online coaching

@finn_kelly

Hi Christoph! Best thing you can do is fill out the application form in the description, and then I’ll get a response video over to you outlining the service/processes and the steps moving forwards!

There really should be a personal trainers union to protect workers rights and pay when your employed in a gym or at least financial support when your self employed. Because any beginner cannot afford £600 rent space from the start. And I personally would start online training first (get results from your family and friends) then go from there.

Thank you

Good video dude really clear an precise. Can i ask you where you got your qualifications and also which of the two types of job did/do you actually find more fun ? an realisitically is this a career where you can make 40k a year or more? possibly even at a fancy gym or health spa..

Thanks mate! I used the training rooms for my PT qualifications but also have a university degree in sports science (not needed). I much prefer online coaching and in terms of income, you absolutely get out what you put in, so that depends on you as an individual!

As a PT the lockdown really slowed things down

I am thinking of doing the pure gym PT course but wanted to find out how PTs actually make their money seeing as you get a few hours and have to pay rent..don’t want to be working for free and having to have another job unrelated to fitness to survive lol.

I would sure be interested in on-line coaching, Finn! Please let me know!

Hi my challenges are the technical setting up side of things. Anywhere I can learn from to do this? I an a level 4 fitness instructors teach various classes Tai Chi, Pilates and cardio dance. Also trained as a PT and have worked in gyms as one for a number years. Do I use Zoom like I did during Covid, also the marketing side. I have a website which need s a facelift but does it's job. I have Instagram and Facebook but at times overwhelmed in getting started..

Hi mate I’ll be starting my job in Puregym in a couple weeks, any tips?

Well, Finn, I'm about to step out and go freelance in a month. It took a while to figure this out. But since I was miserable in the current company, the only way is out

Why did you not like they company youre in? What makes you want to go freelance. Also what gym was it and hows freelance going?

Im skeptical of doing a PT course which takes 14-15 weeks to complete through pure gym, where I’ve heard it takes 2-3 years to do elsewhere. Has anyone had the experience in qualifying through puregym? Just find it odd elsewhere it takes 2-3 to complete a PT course

great video, just a question. How would you go around doing Pt sessions if you're not employed by a certain gym? I've heard that some gyms can even ban PTs if they notice they are coaching there without paying a rent. It's the one thing I am trying to solve, as I want my own clients without working for a certain gym, possibly use multiple gyms, therefore paying multiple rents would be a struggle

Pay membership for a few diff gyms. At the end of the day you’re using that gym with your ‘mate’ no rules to say you can’t ‘help’ out and coach your mate 😉

Where did you train to be a pt? Did you do it online if face to face?

Is that figure your monthly earnings ? I'm looking to qualify as a pt soon and just trying to get an idea of what pt's are earning on average per month 🤔

Hi mate, no problem! You can learn a lot from KZread alone to be honest! Also through following people in your field who produce good content on social media. If you want to be a Personal Trainer you will need a level 2 gym instructor and level 3 Personal Trainer qualification. There are plenty of other platforms which will cost you but you can learn a lot: - PT Collective - N1 Education - The Muscle Mentors - The Hypertrophy Coach - Mac Nutrition Just to name a few there for you mate!

Hey , I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your highly engaging videos and thumbnails which will help your video to reach to a wider audience and increase your subscribers and viewers.

Hang on so the main reason you quit PT is for meal time and expenditure are you for real? I would understand if you were at a high level or a pro but you’ve done a show lol!

It's allowing more freedom for himself and his own personal goals, what's wrong with that? As well as being able to work with clients who he wants to work with rather than anyone willing to pay him £30/hr. Far more enjoyment working with more advanced clients, getting great results, building a great portfolio showcasing transformations and eventually be able to charge a lot more for his online service. So, in the long run he'll be able to have more freedom and will be earning a lot more money. Also, the security of always having an income. If gyms shut again, he can't PT.

@@curtisfawcett as a passive income why can’t you do both? Why can’t he target the clients he wants to work with through PT he picks who he trains? Why only charge £30 when you can charge £45 plus?You can work with advanced clients doing PT? Why does making yourself a full time online coach make you more money... rather than doing both. Honestly have a think what you are writing it doesn’t make any sense. What I’m saying is that he isn’t in a position to be able to make any real money from this he hasn’t won shows, he hasn’t got a big following, he hasn’t got an outstanding physique so people will not buy into it. Think about it he needs 30 clients paying 100£PM to bring in 3k a month which is still under national average and that’s before tax... not going to happen! Finally how is online coaching any more secure than PT lol?

@curtisfawcett

@@Jay-ho2zd Because he still needs to pay off £600/month rent so you'd rather get any clients just to pay that off rather than be picky/choosy. Plus, I doubt many members would be willing to pay £45 for an hour's session in a commercial gym they're paying £20/month for whenever there's other PT's in the same gym charging half the price. Easily within a year of focusing on his online business, getting great results therefore being able to charge more he could easily earn more from online coaching alone than he would on the gym floor. Why do you think majority of PT's go to online once they have enough numbers willing to go online? Don't see any online coaches moving back to working on the gym floor.

Seems like a good idea lol ... seen your house lol I’d be getting another 3 jobs to try and move out of there not quit one. If you had a huge following, successful, one shows, or were in good nick then I would understand but.... ☕️🐸🙈
