Seeking Highly Motivated Individuals who Are Looking for a Career in Fitness

 Special Opportunity for Someone With a Passion for Fitness, Integrity in Conduct, An Outstanding Work Ethic  and a Great Personality To Help Others Get Fit and Have Fun!”

-Yes, we expect a lot from our Staff. We have high standards. If you are missing any of the above traits, likely this position will not be a good fit. But if you do possess the traits we're seeking, you're about to apply for the BEST JOB in the Fitness Industry!

 

Dear Prospective Fitness Trainer,

 
First of all, thanks for taking the time to visit this site.  It’s my hope that you have precisely what I need in a fitness trainer so I can take this page down immediately and put you to work in the fun and rewarding personal training position we have available.
 
My name is Brian Calkins and I run a fitness company called HealthStyle Fitness in Cincinnati Ohio.
 
Our business is dedicated to helping women and men achieve their health, fitness & weight loss goals through nutrition education and fitness programs. 

And we're looking for a great individual to join our family!

And so, we're looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, and energetic person to join our team of professional trainers.
 
The training studio is located on 4325 Red Bank Road just moments from I-71.  (click here for a map and directions.)
 
If you are hired for this position, you'll begin working with clients part-time and grow rather quickly into fulltime (based on your performance, of course).
 
Bottom line...
 
You’ll get at least 15 hours of training clients after you complete your training with us.  You will be paid as an employee earning $18 dollars and hour (and go full-time) after a 45-day trial period.  You'll have an opportunity to earn up to $25/hour when you reach 32 sessions per week and you'll have an opportunity for medical insurance.
 
HealthStyle Fitness offers a casual, fun, yet very professional environment, with the latest training protocols, equipment and the opportunity for tremendous growth.  In fact, we are continually recognized as one of the top training companies in the mid-west, and have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Cincinnati Business Journal and The Cincinnati Enquirer, as well as TV and Radio.
 
If you are chosen to work with us you will be compensated fairly, treated fairly and we will certainly look for ways to pay you more for your efforts if they warrant it. We're looking for someone who enjoys working with people and making a difference in the lives of others… because that’s what we do at HealthStyle Fitness. 
 
 
Here's What You'll Have to Do
 
   
* Develop Comprehensive Health & Fitness Programs For Clients: You'll receive coaching and training on our fitness system and programs, but you'll have flexibility to incorporate your training style and knowledge.
   
* Tracking Client Progress: In order to ensure a client's success in our programs, you'll need to track weekly progress, current successes and challenges, review client nutrition and exercise log worksheets and more on a weekly basis.  It will be your job to hold a client accountable to his/her health and fitness program to ensure the best results possible.
   
* Perform Fitness Evaluations:  Ideally, you'll have some fitness assessment skills and can test for: body composition, bodyweight, girth measurements, blood pressure, heart rate and various strength and flexibility tests.  You do not need previous experience, but if you do, that's a bonus.
   
* Coach clients through our programs:  You'll be responsible for weekly exercise sessions and keeping detailed weekly progress reports on the clients your working with.  If a client is having challenges throughout his/her program, you'll coach and motivate the client and make appropriate changes to ensure consistent progress.
   
* Demonstrate Proper Exercise Instruction:  This is a big one.  I need you to be able to provide proper coaching, instruction, and motivation during a client training session.  You should have a working knowledge of the human body (i.e. muscles, movements, functions, etc) and be able to provide appropriate exercises for client’s goals.
   
* Conduct Yourself, at all times, as a Professional: We will train you on the appropriate service level we offer clients. We expect no less than white-glove treatment with our clients as well as other members of our training team.
 

 
Here's What You Have to Have

 

* Good Communication Skills: You will be talking with my clients, who are VERY important to me.  You must be comfortable conversing in-person and on the phone and know how to conduct yourself professionally, and deliver clear instructions to the clients.  I’ll teach you everything you need to do during a training session, but I can’t teach you manners and professionalism.

* People skills and personality - you must LOVE working with people! As mentioned above you must be very comfortable working with people.  This is an exciting studio and you must be able to show your clients energy and excitement while working with them.

* Health and Fitness Education:  You do not need personal training experience, but you should have a working knowledge of health and fitness.

* Most Importantly, Your Must Conduct Yourself with Integrity. If you struggle to treat others with respect, to conduct your job with honesty, this is not the position for you.

 
 
Bonus Skills
 
If you have these additional skills, your resume will go right to the top of the stack (but if you don’t have these skills, you should still apply because these are not mandatory).  In reality, we've always said:

 

 
"We hire great people, not great trainers."
   
IWe can teach you to train, but we can't train you to be a great person.  That was your parents' job a long time ago. 
 
* Previous personal training experience (fitness studio, health club, etc.)
* Basic nutrition knowledge
* National Certification through ACE, ACSM, NSCA or NASM
* Kinesiology or Exercise Science Degree
* CPR Certified
 

 Just So You Know...

 
HealthStyle Fitness treats our clients with white glove service.  We're not a gym, we are a private fitness studio where we work with some of the best people in Cincinnati. So don't even think that you'll be able to act, dress or speak inappropriately and without a high regard for those we work with.
