In this blog we are going to discuss everything you need to know about celebrity personal training, be you a personal trainer yourself or a would-be client.
What exactly is a Celebrity Personal Trainer?
In a nutshell, a celebrity personal trainer is a personal trainer who’s clients include those in the public eye. This could include pop stars or band members, TV personalities, actors and actresses, models, or anyone else in the public eye. Personal trainers to celebrities work in much the same way as any other personal trainer – devising and developing programmes tailored to the clients needs and wants, incorporating it into their lifestyle and free-time. Depending on work scheduling, they might only see their client on occasion and give them other work to carry out alone, however other clients prefer to have their personal trainer with them daily for motivation, discipline and guidance on their work out. Like any personal trainer and client, how they work together differs depending on the individual.
How to find a Celebrity Personal Trainer
One thing to bear in mind when looking for a celebrity personal trainer, should you be in the public eye yourself or not, is to be aware that having celebrity clients is not a qualification in itself. You will want to ensure that the trainer is highly qualified and good at what they do. Many people might be instantly impressed by a long list of well known clients and immediately see that as enough validation as to the personal trainer’s credentials. Also, look for proof of them training certain clients they say they have, and seek testimonials if need be. Hiring any personal trainer should always be done after carrying out some research.
As always, the best way to find a personal trainer is by word of mouth. If you already mix in celebrity circles, ask around, especially to those who you know look in good shape and take their fitness seriously. Not only are you after physical results however, but you are also seeking someone who is reliable, easy to work with, and above all else, discreet. Discretion is a quality that is of high value to those who are in the public eye.
How to become a Celebrity Personal Trainer
If being a celebrity personal trainer is your goal, the first thing you need to do, obviously, is to establish yourself and your reputation as an excellent personal trainer. This means gaining the necessary qualifications, not just in fitness, but in nutrition and general health too, as the more strings you can add to your bow the better. Having a rounded wealth of knowledge in the area of health and fitness will be seen as a great benefit to clients. After becoming qualified, experience is the next thing to gain, which should be taken just as seriously.
For personal trainers looking to gain more celebrity clients, there are a number of things you can do. You need to build your business with good long term clients and work for a good few years in building your experience, and reputation. Once you are established as a personal trainer, and as a business, you can start approaching potential clients, perhaps via agents, with your business card, as you will have something solid they can take note of. Ask in high-profile gyms, hotels and leisure centres if you can leave them some cards, and network in the right places. Always ensure you can back up your claims, and if you are good, then word of mouth in the business will see you gain further clients.
Celebrity Personal Training Inspiration
Fitness inspiration is big on the internet, mostly on the social media platform Instagram, which hosts many huge players in the fitness inspiration game. Personal trainers themselves often have an account to show off their own programmes and results, their own personal training and results, and for gaining followers and engaging with them too. This is a great way to both gain yourself a personal training following, and also seek out personal trainers in certain areas too. Having a presence on social media can really get you noticed and gain you clients.
As a client, social media is a great way of getting in touch with your peers who you wish to ask about their personal trainer, as well as following and sussing out who might be a good fit as a trainer for you.
