Unleashing Your Earning Potential as a Personal Trainer

Becoming a personal trainer not only allows you to pursue your passion for fitness but also offers the unique opportunity to determine your income. With platforms like Adonis and the potential to take your services online, personal trainers can achieve impressive earning potential. In this article, we'll explore the factors that influence how much personal trainers can make and how Adonis empowers trainers to define their earnings.


Personal trainers can make as much as they want

1. Unlimited Earning Potential

The beauty of a personal trainer's career is that your income potential is virtually unlimited. I mean, of course, there's a ceiling on how much you want to work, but hear me out. The ability to set your own rates, combined with the support of platforms like Adonis, means you have the power to decide how much you want to make and how many sessions you have to hold. Taking your training services online further expands your reach and income opportunities, allowing you to tap into a global client base.


2. The Traditional Math

For those operating as independent trainers, simple math can help you estimate your potential earnings. Determine how much you want to earn annually and consider how many weeks you plan to work in a year. Then, calculate your session rate and divide the annual income goal by the number of weeks you plan to work, accounting for vacation time.


For instance, if you aim to make $100,000 per year, taking four weeks off, and charge $125 per session, you'd need to train approximately 17 clients per week. This translates to just over three clients per day, Monday through Friday, to reach your goal. If it's $150 a session, the number per week drops to 14. And $175? You get it. Adonis can assist you in finding and managing these clients effectively.


3. Gym vs. Independent Training

Your earning potential can also be influenced by whether you choose to work for a gym or operate independently. Gyms often take a significant portion of the session fee, reducing your income. On the other hand, working independently allows you to keep the entirety of your session rate, potentially requiring fewer clients to achieve your income goals. The amount gyms used to take made sense because they'd bring in clients for you, but now Adonis is here to solve that problem, helping you connect with clients and build your personal training business while maintaining control over your rates and earnings.


4. Look Around You

Generally speaking, most people will shop around to see what personal training costs them at their local gym. So before you start throwing around $200 per session price tags, see what you're competing against. Does the local Gyms R Us only charge $50 for a session? If yes, maybe it's time to rethink our pricing or at least market what we have to offer a little more clearly. I typically outline how I travel directly to them, handle all of our logistics and administrative work, and send them photos and videos from our sessions as reasons I am worth a premium price. Just something to think about!


In conclusion, personal trainers have the unique advantage of setting their own income goals and determining their earnings. With platforms like Adonis, the sky is truly the limit for how much personal trainers can make and will help you can achieve the financial success you desire while doing what you love in the fitness industry.
