NOW HIRING - Personal Training Rockstar

Personal Trainer (Part-time or Full Time)

​

Are you a Personal trainer or an aspiring trainer?

 

Would you like to work at a gym that’s changing the way fitness is done?

 

Hi! My name is Brian Fischer and I own one of the most unique gyms to work at in Cedar Rapids, IA – Edge Fitness.

 

All day I get to help people become the strongest version of themselves by working with them improve to their movement, nutrition, recovery and mindset.

 

It’s truly rewarding work that I’ve been blessed to be doing for close to two decades.

 

As most people get little to no fulfillment from their job, I get the opportunity to help people get fit healthy and strong…every day.

 

Some great news… as most gyms are slowing down, we are growing!

 

We recently expanded into a 4,400 square foot gym-clinic facility, along with a second location where we provide training, and we need a new trainer to help us meet the large demand of people that need our help.

 

Over the years I have had the opportunity to learn from some of the world’s best coaches and therapists and am ready to share the knowledge and skills that I use with my gym member’s, clients and athletes with you!

 

When you work with us, you’ll be on the front lines of helping to continue to build our business and using the latest training techniques in the fitness industry.

 

Over the past few years, Edge Fitness has grown to service close to 20,000 coach-led training sessions a year and we’d love for you to help us continue to make that number of people we’ve been able to help through our coaching services grow even bigger!

 

What's in it for you

Quick Start: You will start with clients that are ready and waiting for you to work with them, that way you get to dive in and focus on what you do best. Don’t worry if you’re new to training, we’ll be here to help you as you get started with training, shadowing and mentoring!

 

Continuing Education: Because I have had such amazing opportunities to learn from others and believe in being a student as well as a teacher in order to do my best and do it for a long time, you will have access to a vast learning library and get help with your continuing education costs so you can keep learning and growing to be your best!

 

Part of the Tribe: You're going to get to be part of a growing and diverse team and network of leading professionals in our area and you will be the leader and go-to trainer on helping to build an all-star team.

As Edge Fitness grows, so will your benefits with future benefits of Health Insurance, an investment matching, paid vacation becoming available as we hit our goals as a company by helping our clients hit theirs in and out of the gym!

 

Opportunity: With the opportunity to become our lead, go-to trainer, helping to grow a successful company that strives to meet all the needs of our members, clients and athletes, the right person will also have the opportunity to make more money by taking part in the business side of things.

• Be a Student of the Game: We practice what we preach here and strive to lead by example for our members, clients and athletes. We don’t expect everyone to be an elite athlete or fitness model; we’re real people living real lives, and we’re committed to walking the talk.
