It is safe to assume that there are hundreds, probably thousands of different traits and characteristics that Personal Trainer’s might have…
but it’s clear to see that some Personal Trainers are more outstanding than others…
so what are the top 5 traits that makes an OUTSTANDING Personal trainer… not average… outstanding!
Let’s rundown; Top of the Pops Style (well, Top of the PTs I suppose)
What makes an outstanding personal trainer – Top 5 Traits
No 5: Serve Like Royalty
Think back to a time you bought a product or a holiday where the people delivering that service absolutely over delivered. It makes you feel like Royalty.
And the same applies for Personal Trainers – if you treat your clients like Royalty, make them feel special, exceed their expectations and give them everything you can to help them… then they will feel like Royalty.
If they feel like Royalty with you, they will never go back to anyone else and they will be raving fans, referring more clients your way.
To treat them like Royalty, you need to consider the end goal as being the most important thing, including Nutrition advice, programming specifically for the physiological changes you want to see and providing support throughout their journey.
No 4: Analytical and questioning
There are three parts to this characteristic.
Firstly you need to be analytical and questioning over your own performance, continually reviewing and evaluating ever session and every type of communication you do. This will help you make changes and improve every time, which will compound… and before you know it you’ll genuinely be outstanding at what you do.
The second part is being analytical of your client’s behaviors.
The Final part is analytical of technique and posture – this makes the work you do ion the Gym floor one hundred percent beneficial.
No 3: Heart
…
No 2: All about the goal
…
No 1: Learn for Life
The crux of all of the above traits … is knowledge.
Some of the most outstanding Personal trainers I have worked with or spoken to, have all said continuing to learn is the reason they are successful.
The more you Learn, the more you Earn!
As a Personal Trainer, you need to keep learning. The knowledge you learned during training is great, but it isn’t everything. So you need to expand on what you have learned to specialize your understanding of how to achieve goals and get results. You may choose to read books and articles, enroll on courses or work towards new qualifications.
As well as topping up new knowledge, it’s really important to refresh the knowledge you learned whilst training. I dont know about you, but I can barely remember what I had for dinner 5 nights ago, let alone the content of training lectures 5 years ago… so keep finding new ways to top up and refresh your knowledge throughout your PT career.
