Скачать или смотреть The Misconception of Passion in Fitness Training

“Just be passionate about fitness” might be the most damaging advice in the personal training industry.

In this episode of the Complete Personal Training Podcast, we break down how passion gets weaponised, why the most passionate trainers often fail first, and what you actually need if you want a long-term PT career.

Here’s the truth: Passion for fitness isn’t the same as skill in running a fitness business.

Most trainers love training… but the job requires:

marketing

sales

follow-up

admin

systems

retention

When trainers expect clients to match their enthusiasm, it creates an expectation gap that leads to disappointment → resentment → burnout.

We also cover the Client Level System (Level 1–3) to help you coach clients based on their interest and experience — not yours.
