We're an award-winning personal training studio that helps everyday adults get stronger, move better, and stay active for the long term. Our members range from people who are brand new to strength training to experienced lifters, with many in their 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond. Most importantly, this is a coaching job. You don't have to find your own clients, sell training packages, or build your own book of business. We provide the members, programming, systems, and support so you can focus on being a great coach. Schedule & Hours This position will begin with a consistent 4-hour Saturday coaching block , with opportunities to pick up additional hours as a substitute coach during the week. Additional regular weekday coaching blocks may become available over time, giving the right coach an opportunity to grow into a larger role with Straight Shot Training.
Expected hours:
4-28 per week What You'll Do Our primary service is semi-private personal training. You'll coach multiple members at the same time, with each person following an individualized training program based on their goals, abilities, and training history. Your job is to create a great training experience while making sure each member is training safely, effectively, and with the right level of challenge. That includes coaching exercise technique, helping members select appropriate weights, making modifications when needed, tracking progress, building relationships, and creating an environment where people genuinely enjoy coming to train. What We're Looking For We're looking for someone who knows strength training and, just as importantly, knows how to coach people. You should be comfortable working with a wide range of ages and abilities. Some members may be chasing a new personal best while someone next to them is learning how to squat confidently for the first time. We're looking for a coach who can meet both of them where they are. A current personal training certification from a nationally recognized organization such as NASM, ACE, NSCA, ACSM, or a similar organization is preferred. Candidates currently completing their certification may also be considered. Saturday availability is required.
