Join AB Fitness: The Perfect Career Opportunity for Personal Trainers
If you’re a personal trainer looking to take your career to the next level, AB Fitness is the ideal place to grow, thrive, and make a real impact on clients’ lives. The fitness industry can be challenging, especially for trainers just starting out or trying to build a consistent client base. Many trainers struggle with marketing, client acquisition, and managing all the administrative aspects of running a business. At AB Fitness, we’ve designed a system that removes those challenges so you can focus on what you do best: training clients and helping them achieve results.
Why AB Fitness is the Best Place to Work
The primary reason trainers succeed at AB Fitness is our team-based, client-focused approach. Unlike big-box gyms, where trainers are often left to hustle for their own clients, AB Fitness provides a steady flow of clients through our shared-client system. You don’t have to spend hours marketing yourself or worrying about filling your schedule—clients come to you, and your focus is entirely on delivering the best training experience possible.
Key Benefits of Working at AB Fitness:
-
No sales pressure: Trainers can focus on training clients, not selling memberships.

Shared clients: Our team-based approach ensures that everyone gets a fair distribution of clients.

Our 12-Week Onboarding Program: Launch Your Career Successfully
At AB Fitness, we don’t just hire trainers—we invest in your success. All new hires go through a 12-week onboarding program designed to give you a strong foundation for your career. This program ensures that every trainer is prepared to provide exceptional client experiences, track progress, and create sustainable results.
During the 12-week onboarding program, you’ll learn:

This onboarding process ensures that you’re fully prepared to succeed as a trainer from day one. By the time you finish, you’ll not only be an expert in delivering effective training but also equipped with the tools and knowledge to grow your career sustainably.
Grow Your Income and Client Base with AB Fitness
One of the biggest challenges for new personal trainers is generating consistent income. At AB Fitness, we remove that barrier by providing a ready-to-train client base, so you can focus on delivering results instead of chasing clients. Our shared-client system and structured support allow you to increase your income, gain long-term clients, and grow your reputation as a trusted personal trainer.
We also provide opportunities to expand your services, including small group training and nutrition coaching, which allow trainers to diversify their income streams. This combination of support, resources, and mentorship ensures that AB Fitness trainers can focus on what matters most—helping clients achieve sustainable results.
The AB Fitness Career Ladder
At AB Fitness, we don’t just hire personal trainers—we invest in your long-term career and provide a clear ladder of success that allows you to grow from a junior trainer to a leadership role with real responsibility and ownership. Every trainer who joins our team starts as a Junior Trainer, where you’ll focus on building your skills, learning our systems, and delivering exceptional service to clients. This is where you gain hands-on experience, master client interactions, and learn the fundamentals of our programs. As a junior trainer, you’ll have the opportunity to shadow experienced trainers, refine your techniques, and get comfortable with our Results App to track workouts, weights, and progressions for your clients. This foundational stage ensures that you are prepared to take the next step in your career with confidence. Once you’ve demonstrated skill, consistency, and a commitment to helping clients achieve results, the next level is Head Trainer.
In this role, you’ll take on more responsibility, including mentoring junior trainers, helping with session programming, and taking a more active role in client retention and engagement. You’ll start to contribute to operational decisions, help maintain the standard of training quality across your team, and have a stronger influence on the overall experience of our clients. This level is designed to teach leadership skills in a real-world environment, preparing you for even greater responsibilities while still keeping you close to your passion for training. From Head Trainer, the natural next step is Facility Leader, a role that essentially functions as a mini-owner within the AB Fitness system. Facility Leaders are responsible not just for training, but for overseeing the operations of an entire location. This includes managing staff, ensuring client satisfaction, maintaining operational excellence, and driving growth at the facility level. You’ll be deeply involved in staffing, scheduling, and fostering a positive culture for both trainers and clients. This role gives you the autonomy to make real decisions and shape the success of the gym, all while continuing to be part of the AB Fitness team.
Beyond the Facility Leader, the top rung in our career ladder is Regional Manager, where you oversee multiple locations and play a critical role in the overall strategy, growth, and performance of the AB Fitness brand in your region. Regional Managers are responsible for leading teams of Facility Leaders, maintaining high standards across all locations, and ensuring that every trainer and client experience reflects the AB Fitness mission. This level combines strategic planning, leadership, and operational management skills, allowing you to expand your influence and impact in the fitness industry while reaping the rewards of a high-level leadership role. At AB Fitness, the career ladder is designed for ambitious trainers who want to grow, develop leadership skills, and take control of their professional journey. Unlike working at a big-box gym, where career advancement can be limited or unclear, AB Fitness provides a structured, transparent path that rewards dedication, results, and leadership potential.
Every step of the way, from Junior Trainer to Regional Manager, is designed to empower you to succeed, giving you the tools, mentorship, and opportunities needed to build a long-term, fulfilling career in personal training. This isn’t just a job—it’s a pathway to ownership, leadership, and lasting success in the fitness industry.
