Personal Trainer
Greater Green Bay YMCA, Inc.
JOB SUMMARY As a Personal Trainer, above and beyond just offering you a challenging workout. You support members of the community in reaching their physical fitness and healthy living goals. At the Y, you are part of a team that learns and grows together through mentoring and networking. GENERAL FUNCTIONS
This job description represents the major functions of the job but is not intended to be all inclusive. The incumbent is also responsible for performing other duties as necessary for Association success.
- Build collaborative relationships with members and community/corporate partners to promote personal training services and other Y programs/service
- Deliver individual or group training and consulting sessions at all locations.
- Conduct classes, demos, fitness analyses, or other presentations both on-site and with Worksite Wellness partners.
- Create individualized or group goal-oriented training plans.
- Exemplify professionalism and servant leadership in the areas of fitness, exercise and basic rehabilitation techniques.
- Act according to facility protocol to ensure safety of all staff and children which includes:
- Adhere to policies related to boundaries with staff and children.
- Attend required abuse risk management training.
- Report suspicious and inappropriate behaviors and policy violations.
- Follow mandated abuse reporting requirements.
- A current personal training or related certification accredited through the NCCA (National Commissions for Certifying Agencies) is required. Must maintain required CEC's and certifications throughout employment.
- Minimum six months experience in personal training or wellness coaching preferred.
- A degree in Exercise Physiology or related field is preferred.
- CPR/First Aid certifications are required within the first 60 days of employment.
- Successful completion of Training and Skills Assessment within 60 days of employment is required.
- YMCA Strength and Conditioning certification and participation in Listen First and Model of Influence Training is required within the first six months of employment.
- Ability to prioritize workloads to meet timelines and maintain confidentiality of personal information required.
- Understanding of exercise science and how it relates to working with "Health Seekers" of all ages and abilities.
- Relationships : Building meaningful, trusting, collaborative relationships and upholding the SMART pledge is the core of our work. Broach sensitive topics carefully and respectfully to collaborate on solutions, working effectively with people of different backgrounds, abilities, opinions and perceptions to ensure a positive experience for all. Uphold the SMART pledge in all interactions.
- Communication : Explaining and educating in a way that people with less technical knowledge understand, and motivating behavioral change is essential. This requires excellent listening skills as well as telephone, face to face, and written communication skills tailored to the appropriate audience and situation. When sensitive issues need to be addressed, use non-threatening, collaborative methods. Listen carefully to understand member goals and concerns and exercise empathy to help members achieve their goals.
- Operational Effectiveness : Because there are many aspects to the work, you need to stay organized and manage time effectively and flexibly. Innovative approaches and ideas will create a better member experience. You will be required to reach specific client base goals within 90 days and throughout your employment. Keeping good records of member goals and achievements will help you evaluate program effectiveness and progress toward goals. Be a good steward of the Y by following and enforcing policies/procedures and using resources wisely.
- Decision Making : Since there isn't a prescription for every circumstance, you will need to exercise sound judgment based on experience, professional standards, and member and participant focused data; transfer learning to situations; and provide others with framework for making decisions.
- Safety : At the Y we provide sound and proven information to our members that will support their wellness goals. While creativity is important in motivating participants, you will employ tried and true fitness and nutritional advice that ensures participants' health, safety and wellbeing.
- Change Capacity : Adaptability and agility enables the Y to stay relevant and deliver the best possible experience to our members. You will need to demonstrate an openness to change, be aware of the impact, and seek opportunities in the change process.
- Emotional Maturity : How we understand and conduct ourselves impacts our relationships. In many situations you will need to accurately assess personal feelings, strengths and limitations and how they impact relationships. Behave in ways that support the Y, members, participants and staff. Pursue professional development opportunities to enhance job performance. Keep up to date with the latest fitness research and translate the information into practice and actively participate in staff in-service meetings to continually learn and develop.
- Mission Advancement : As a cause driven leader you will support the Y, its members, participants, and staff by living the Y's values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT, and RESPONSIBILITY in all interactions and aspects of job performance and demonstrate the desire to serve others and fulfill community needs.
- Physical Requirements : This position requires flexibility to work schedules that meet the needs of the clients. Some office and desk work is required, including telephone, meeting, research, and computer work. Personal training sessions may call for you to demonstrate exercises (crunching, squatting, bending, and moving), lift weights, and move/set up equipment up to 50 pounds. Regular local travel between the centers and/or to our corporate clients may be required.
- Influence : You are selling more than a personal training. You are selling relationships, engagement, support and involvement. As such, you will seek first to understand the other person's individual state of health and health goals in order to provide honest and meaningful guidance towards their fitness goals.
- Developing Others : Being a part of the Personal Training team and an expert in health and fitness, you have an important role to hold yourself and others accountable for quality services and results. You will do this by inspiring, developing, and collaborating with each other to reach personal and team goals.
