Personal Training Intern information

What is a personal training intern?

Personal training interns are individuals who are gaining hands-on experience in the fitness industry by working under the supervision of certified personal trainers. They assist with client assessments, develop exercise programs, and help lead training sessions while learning about proper exercise technique and client safety. Interns typically use this opportunity to fulfill educational requirements, gain practical skills, and prepare for certification or future employment as personal trainers.

What does a personal training intern do?

As a Personal Training Intern, your daily responsibilities often include shadowing certified trainers during client sessions, preparing equipment, assisting with client assessments, and helping design basic workout plans under supervision. You may also help maintain gym cleanliness, track client progress, and answer questions about exercise techniques or fitness goals. This hands-on experience allows you to develop communication skills, learn best practices, and build confidence before leading sessions independently.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a personal training intern?

To thrive as a Personal Training Intern, you need a solid understanding of exercise science, basic fitness principles, and often a relevant degree or coursework in kinesiology or sports science. Familiarity with fitness assessment tools, gym equipment, and CPR/AED certification is typically required. Excellent interpersonal skills, motivation, and the ability to communicate instructions clearly help interns effectively support and inspire clients. These competencies ensure safe, engaging training sessions and lay the groundwork for building strong client relationships and professional growth.

What is the difference between Personal Training Intern vs Personal Trainer?

Job description

Full-time • Paid hourly (~$45,000–$59,000/yrr) • PTO • Overland Park, KS
I can teach someone to be a great coach. I can’t teach someone to care.

So at BridgeFit, I hire for the things you can’t train — heart, energy, and a real love for helping people — and we build the coaching from there. You’ll need to already be certified (more on that below), but past that, I care more about who you are than your résumé.

If you light up when someone hits a goal they didn’t believe they could reach — keep reading.

A little about us

We’re a personal training gym for adults 40+ here in Overland Park. Small groups and 1-on-1. We’ve been voted Best Personal Training in Johnson County four years running, with 100+ five-star reviews and Best Gym 2026. That doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because our coaches genuinely care — and because we invest in them so they keep getting better.

We’re not the loud gym. No screaming, no ego, no drill-sergeant act. We coach with detail and precision, and we meet people where they’re at. Think “the Cheers of fitness” — a place where everybody knows your name. That goes for our team, too.

Right now, I’m hiring.

Why coach at BridgeFit (and not the big-box gym down the road)
  • No sales. Your only job is to be a great coach. No packages to push, no commission pressure.
  • No doubles. Consistent, set shifts you can build a real life around. No chaos, no last-minute changes.
  • We actually develop you. Structured onboarding, a proven coaching system so you’re never winging it, $500/year toward continuing education, and expert speakers we bring in. You will get better here.
  • Real room to grow. Our Director of Training started as an intern — we build people up. As we grow, so can you.
  • A team that means it. No egos. We’re in each other’s corner.
  • PTO, because we invest in coaches who are here for the long haul.
Who I’m looking for

Maybe you’re newer and hungry, with more heart than years. Maybe you’re a good coach who’s burned out on the franchise grind — the doubles, the sales quotas, being just a number. Maybe you’ve always been the person others lean on. If any of that is you, we should talk.

The right person:

 
  • Is a genuinely good human who puts people first
  • Brings real energy — whether or not you feel like it that day
  • Connects with a 60-year-old like they’re an old friend
  • Loves helping people, especially the ones who’ve been counted out
  • Is certified (NASM, ACE, ISSA, or similar) and CPR/AED certified — this one’s required
  • Bonus: experience with adults 40+ or small-group training
 

One honest filter: if you’re here to build your personal brand and need the spotlight, this isn’t the place. We’re a team, and it’s about the members — not us.

How to apply

Hit Apply and send your résumé. I read every one personally.
