| Aspect | Performance Coach | Personal Trainer |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Certifications in coaching, sports psychology, or related fields | Fitness certifications (e.g., NASM, ACE) |
| Work Environment | Corporate, sports teams, individual coaching sessions | Gyms, fitness centers, private studios |
| Employer & Industry | Sports organizations, corporate wellness programs, individual clients | Fitness industry, health clubs, personal clients |
