Most personal trainers don't last. Here's why ours do.
EPPT is hiring coaches who want a real career — not just another side job.
Show me what's possible hereThe Problem with Personal Training as a Career
The fitness industry has a massive turnover problem. The average personal trainer lasts 3–6 months. They get qualified, walk onto a gym floor, and realise that knowing how to train someone is only 10% of the job.
They can't get enough clients. They lack systems. They have no one to mentor them. They end up working 14-hour split shifts, exhausted, broke, and eventually, they quit to find a "real job."
We believe personal training is a real job. But only if you're in the right environment.
What's Possible Here
At EPPT, our best coaches earn $2,000+ per week. But more importantly, they have a real career structure. They aren't fighting other trainers for leads on the gym floor. They are part of a team.
We provide the systems, the marketing, the leads, and the mentorship. You provide the work ethic, the coachability, and the care for your clients.
What You Get When You Coach With EPPT
1. A proven system
We've spent over a decade building systems that get clients results. You don't have to guess what works.
2. A real team
This isn't a competitive arrangement where trainers fight for clients. Other coaches are available when you're stuck on a client problem.
3. Weekly 1:1 mentorship
Meet weekly with a senior coach to work on every part of your PT business, from programming to client communication.
4. Team development sessions
Every week the team meets to work on what we're learning, what we're executing, and how we're getting better.
5. Paired learning sessions
Pair with other coaches to practice movement appraisals, nutrition coaching, and sales scripting.
6. A growth pathway
A career progression that actually means something: Coach → Senior Coach → Head Coach.
