Out of curiosity, where do you train your clients? Do you have a home gym setup or are you affiliated with a gym? Is this a challenge after getting your CPT? Is there some place you can go if you don't have a home gym and don't want to work for a big gym? Thanks.

    I'm not a trainer, but I have three friends who are. One of them opened her own studio, one of them has her business within another business and one works for a chain gym.

    There are all three options then. Any of them seem more satisfied with their arrangement? Which of the three pose the most issues and/or solve the most problems? Is there a difference in profit margins between the three?

    I've always trained clients at a facility. Insurance is covered, there are lots of options with equipment, it gets people to come and they more they get acclimated to the facility, the chances are higher that they will continue to go.
    As for training outside of a facility, parks are a great option. I did do a mini boot camp at a park for a short time, however weather sometimes interfered with some of the things I wanted to do.
