We did too! It was only after serendipitously meeting the right mentors and attending the right certifications/conferences/workshops where we started to actually feel comfortable working with people in a real world setting.
We realized that while our CPT provided great foundational scientific material as an entry point to personal training, it didn’t prepare us at all for the hard and soft skills necessary to truly work with people face-to-face.
Selling your training services, running an evaluation and intake, designing a periodized program, coaching and cueing effectively are all skills that you’re left to just figure out on your own, and it just seems wildly inefficient.
We’ve seen so many incredible, passionate people drop out of the personal training space which is such a shame but we get it - personal training is so demanding and it can get really lonely. Feelings of Impostor Syndrome can quickly get the best of you and rob you of the passion you once had to help people improve their health and fitness.
That’s why we created AchieveMentors and our Beyond the CPT course - to provide an option for personal trainers to not only take their education to the next level but to also provide guidance, support, and validation along the way to affirm that you are on the right path.
This course is over 70 lessons and counting and it is available now!
