Job Description
"If you have enthusiasm, a positive attitude, and good communication and fitness skills, we have a fun and fulfilling Health and Fitness Coach position just for you!"
Company Description:
The Exercise Coach® brand was built upon the belief that staying strong and healthy should not feel like a hassle. We understand that everyone knows they should exercise, and everyone wants to be fit and healthy. But that is easier said than done given busy schedules, and in some cases somewhat beat-up bodies.
Our Approach is based on the science which proves exercise quality matters more than exercise quantity. And, we have created a unique hi-tech process that helps our clients get the results that matter most to them with just two, 20-minute workouts per week.
Our protocols combine our very own proprietary strength and interval high-tech technology with a 100% coach-guided process, which for the first time allows to actually measure an individual’s muscular and metabolic makeup and then prescribe exercise that is perfectly appropriate for them. Our technology can adapt to the user, every second of every workout. Additionally, our clients receive instantaneous feedback throughout their workouts that helps them focus their efforts, which leads to increased results. And all of this is delivered in a safe, clean studio environment that is nothing like a regular gym filled with mirrors, clanging dumbbells, and loud music.
There is nothing in the fitness industry that compares to the level of personalization and effectiveness we can provide. Thousands of people every day enjoy the best possible workout for them at our more than 100 nationwide studios. Check out our website www.exercisecoach.com.
