FITNESS COACH POSITION AT ANYTIME FITNESS
An Anytime Fitness® Fitness Coach (FC) focuses primarily on helping all members “get to a healthier place.” A FC must possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities to create and conduct safe and effective exercise for a wide variety of participants.

The FC does this by servicing Fitness Consultations, Traditional (1-on-1) Training, Semi Private Training, Group Training, Virtual Training and additional programming opportunities as deemed appropriate by the individual club. Beyond the traditional roles described, the FC provides guidance, education, and encouragement and most importantly, develops relationships with all members to improve retention. AF expects FCs to possess above average customer service skills and be on a mission to provide a “surprisingly personable experience” with everyone he/she meets. Trainers are responsible for the general upkeep of the club (equipment and floor cleanliness), sales and marketing for programming, and proactive outreach to inactive members to assist in retention efforts.
