The Struggle In 2019, I was broke and exhausted. I worked as a full-time personal trainer in San Ramon, CA. For a year and a half, I worked 12-hour days 6 days a week starting at 5 am to build a sustainable clientele. The life of a personal trainer is cutthroat, especially at a big box gym like Equinox. Before you can train clients, you’re required to spend countless wasted hours getting in-house certifications and minimum-wage shifts as a “floor trainer” which is just a glorified janitor who is in charge of cleaning benches, picking up weights, and annoying the people working out on the floor trying to sell training.
Congrats brandon, what a story. I used to be a fitness coach too and can understand what you went through.
