Group Personal Trainer

Position Description: Personal Trainer - Group Training Specialist at LTYB Bentleigh - Initially Approx 15 hours per week and more for the right applicant

Job Overview: As a Trainer specialising in Group Personal Training within our Fitness Franchise, you will play a pivotal role in leading dynamic fitness sessions that cater to the individual needs and goals of participants. Your expertise in fostering a motivating environment and delivering personalised attention will be essential in creating an outstanding fitness experience for our members.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Program Implementation:

2. Follow LTYB group workout programs provided by LTYBHQ that align with participants' fitness levels, goals, and any specific needs.

3. Each zone has Level 1 and 2 exercises, you use your expertise to decide the level of the participant. A simple example is Client A has just started and will do a level 2 body weight squat and Client B who has been a member for 2 years+ will perform a back squat in the same session. The programs ensure we don't double up exercises as we have 192 drills per week which change monthly and Bi-Weekly. This guarantees results if the member performs 3+ sessions, less injuries, a unified team approach and consistent progression.
4. Ensure every member is performing every movement with perfect form which will increase performance, decrease the risk of injury and increase studio retention due to better results, more precise coaching and education. This is all part of offering a premium service versus competitors who often bulk Group Fitness or DIY gym memberships.

11. Monitor participants' progress, track achievements and offer encouragement and support to maintain motivation.

14. Utilise effective communication and leadership skills to inspire participants to reach their fitness goals.
15. Introduce new members to as many brand ambassadors as possible.
16. Share member achievements with consent.
