Personal Trainer

Gold's Gym

Certified Personal Trainer

We are building a team of career fitness professionals who take pride in results, professionalism, and work ethic. If you're looking to "hang out, talk workouts, and see what happens," this is not your place. We're hiring career focused personal trainers who want consistent clients, real earning potential, and a long-term path in fitness. If you want to build a serious client base, change lives, and be held to elite standards - keep reading.

You'll have access to: A large diverse membership base; A respected global brand; A team environment of serious professionals; Real career growth for those who earn it. Gold's Gym isn't a hobby gym, and this isn't a hobby job.

This is a performance-based coaching position inside one of the most recognized fitness brands in the world. Your success here will depend on: Your ability to coach, not count reps Your ability to build relationships, not just programs Your willingness to work the floor and earn clients Your consistency, professionalism, and personal standards If you care about being mentored We don't hand out full schedules; We provide the platform- you build the business.

Your performance will be measured by: Client retention, Client results, Session volume, Professional conduct, Member engagement on the floor. If you are uncomfortable being measured by outcomes, this role will not be a fit

Responsibilities: Coach 1-on-1 personal training sessions Program smart, safe, results-driven workouts Educate clients on movements, recovery, and basic nutrition Build strong relationships that drive retention and referrals Deliver high-quality, individualized training sessions Actively engage members on the gym floor daily Convert fitness assessments into long-term clients Track measurable client progress (strength, body comp, performance) Maintain a clean, organized, professional training space Uphold Gold's Gym brand standards in appearance and conduct Communicate clearly, follow up consistently, and show up on time - every time

What Sets Our Top Trainers Apart: Approach training as a career, not a fallback Are comfortable discussing pricing and packages Follow up with leads relentlessly and professionally Continue their education without being told Care deeply about client success - and it shows Carry themselves like professionals inside and outside the gym

This Is NOT the Job for You If: You sit on your phone between sessions You wait for clients to come to you You think certification = competence You avoid sales conversations You cancel sessions frequently You're not training yourself consistently You struggle with punctuality or professionalism You view this as a temporary side gig

Requirements: Nationally recognized Personal Training certification (NASM, ACSM, ACE, NPTI, ISSA, NSCA, etc.) CPR/AED certification (current) Minimum 1 year of coaching experience and experience growing and managing your books Ability to work evenings, and/or weekends Professional appearance and communication skills Physically able to demonstrate exercises and be active on the floor

Benefits: Free Education and Credits towards CECs Discounts on Certifications Multiple commission and bonuses streams to increase income outside of training Paid Floor Hours to get your books stacked Free Gold's Gym Membership to our locations 20% Employee Discount on clothing and products Medical Benefits 401k Compensation: $20.00 - $35.00 per hour

From a single gym in Venice Beach, California in 1965 to a global symbol of strength and performance, Gold's Gym has defined serious training for nearly six decades. What began as a sanctuary for bodybuilders became the birthplace of modern fitness. With over 550 locations across six continents, our legacy has evolved while staying true to its roots- serious training, community and results. As the industry shifts, Gold's Gym continues to lead, honoring our heritage while building the next generation of members and fitness experiences.

We attribute much of our success to our company culture. We're grounded, reliable, and entrepreneurial - but also enthusiastic, collaborative, and creative.

If this feels like you, we can't wait to get your application!
