How To Level Up, No Matter What You Do
As a Fitness First PT there is two levels...
A Level 1 is an employee that works for a salary.
A Level 2 is a franchisee that runs their own business.
Most PT's start off as a Level 1 to get a feel for it.
Getting paid to clean the gym floor and run the classes and get to know the members and build their potential clientele.
Then they transition to Level 2 and rely solely on clients as their income and pay weekly rent to use the gym as their "office space".
Although the t-shirts they wear are different, it's very easy to tell them apart.
A Level 1 has a smile, has passion, actively prospects for clients, a hunger to learn and goes the extra smile.
A Level 2 walks around with a coffee cup, keeps to their clients or themselves, wears whatever shorts they want, forgets their name badge and leaves their weights around the gym floor like a trail of breadcrumbs.
The twisted thing is as a Level 1 personal trainer you're working for somewhere around $20-30 an hour.
And as a Level 2 you can charge whatever you are worth for an hour.
Could be $50 or it could be $500.
The income as a Level 2 PT can be up to 10x the income of a Level 1.
It's twisted because the attitude of a Level 1 is so much better than a Level 2's, however it isn't reflected by the income.
But even though the income is better, it's the attitude of a PT that will ultimately determine their longevity.
A Level 1 is growing their clientele, meeting new people, learning for other PT's and doing extra work (often unseen).
A Level 2 is often comfortable with their level of clients, does no extra work (seen or unseen) and often disengages in any further learning previously pursued as a Level 1.
Regardless of income, this is how I see it.
If you're not moving forward, you're moving backward.
If you're not growing, you're dying.
Whether you're a PT, a plumber, an accountant or a gym newbie that is doing their best to build muscle.
As long as you move forward every single day, regardless of the distance moved, you will be successful in whatever you pursue.
However, that is only if you are moving in the right direction.
You can't tell if you're moving forward, if you don't even know which way is forward am I right?
Which is why I created Team Brock Ashby to be the compass point of your results.
I've created videos, filmed every exercise and collected over 80 recipes to help you determine where forward is for you.
So go on.
Go forward.
And keep going forward because if you're not, you're going backwards.
