The intensity of fitness training is relatively large, and it is very painful without strong hobbies as support. Therefore, enthusiasts who enter the fitness industry for the first time need to ask whether they have a strong interest in the fitness industry.
The fitness industry needs perseverance. The main source of income for fitness instructors is teaching "private education". This source of income is based on long-term interpersonal relationships. Without extensive interpersonal relationships in the field of fitness, it is difficult to have a sustained and stable source of income. Therefore, it requires fitness coaches to work in this field for a long time, so as to master a wide range of interpersonal relationships and lay the foundation for their own sources of income.
Especially at the beginning of work, fitness instructors who are not good at interpersonal communication often don't have enough sources of income, which is also an important reason for the frequent turnover of personnel. Therefore, if you want to engage in this line of work, you must be psychologically prepared for long-term work, otherwise frequent replacement work will be a waste of water.
You need a solid knowledge of fitness theory. If you want to do well in the field of fitness, you must have a solid knowledge of fitness theory. You know, most fitness coaches are only interested in hobbies, and the relevant theoretical knowledge is quite scarce. Careful observation will reveal that those senior fitness coaches or managers who have been engaged for many years have professional fitness knowledge.
Of course, don't be discouraged if you don't have enough theoretical knowledge. You know, even the new coaches majoring in physical education are quite lacking in theoretical knowledge. Therefore, from the beginning of employment, we must begin to prepare for the study of new knowledge. The theoretical knowledge of fitness that needs to be mastered includes nutrition, health care, sports training, sports physiology and so on. Other aspects include marketing, interpersonal communication, management and other related knowledge. Learning knowledge is a step-by-step process, and the cycle may take several years, but adhering to and gradually developing the habit of lifelong learning is our ultimate goal.
Fitness instructors who need to master multiple sports skills can't just make money on one sport. An excellent fitness instructor needs to have a variety of sports skills, including table tennis, badminton, swimming, spinning, yoga, aerobics and so on. In particular, all the projects of the club should be mastered, so that it is convenient to find a suitable "buy class" in each project.
When you join a club for the first time, you should study more, ask more questions, listen more and give less advice. Take the initiative to learn from senior coaches and be a good student. Do more trivial work for the senior coaches who follow, giving people a good impression of being proactive. Only in this way will others take the initiative to teach you and lead you, which will be conducive to your own growth.
