Does this sound familiar?

You want to share your love and knowledge of health and fitness to help others, but…

…you can’t afford to up-skill or change careers

…you don’t have the time to commit to a qualification

…you don’t feel confident turning your passion into a job people will pay you for

…you feel too old to learn new skills

…and you are not sure if it will pay you enough

So… what do you do?

You can either continue to dream about life as a qualified personal trainer (with a long list of adoring clients)…

… or you can keep talking yourself out of making enquiries about a certification, scared you are committing yourself

… or let your fears tell you, “It’s too expensive, I don’t have enough time, or I’m not good enough.”

… or you decide to finally go for it and challenge yourself so you can have a rewarding job that helps people and pays you to do something you love

LEVEL 3 DIPLOMA IN
GYM INSTRUCTING AND PERSONAL TRAINING

How long will I have access to my course training materials?

It is often when you start to work with your real-life clients and build your fitness business that you will need a lot of the lessons which you are taught on a Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training course.. This is why we feel that it is our duty to give you life-time access to your online learning platform.

This will enable you to refer back to lessons such as Programming, Nutrition, Business Set-up and even an extensive Exercise & Coaching Library when you need it the most – when working with your paying clients.

What is the difference between a Level 2 Gym Instructor and a Level 3 Personal Trainer?

The Level 2 Gym Instructor is an important part of Personal Trainers education, as this is where the all important ‘fundamental’ skills in coaching exercise to others in a gym environment is taught.

If a student stops their learning at the end of the Level 2 Gym Instructor content and does not progress their learning further, they will be qualified as a Level 2 Gym Instructor – where they will be qualified to work employed in a gym environment, performing roles such as inductions for gym members, planning and instructing gym-based programmes for members to perform on their own, and assisting with the day-to-day running and upkeep of the gym environment.

When an individual continues their learning onto the Level 3 Personal Trainer content, upon completion they will be a recognised Personal Trainer and will have the option of working employed or self-employed, and will have the education necessary to work with clients on a one-to-one weekly basis – advising and supporting clients with their training, nutrition and lifestyle.

Can you be a Personal Trainer without certification in the UK?

No. To be able to work with clients you will need to have achieved a Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training qualification – without this you will not have the correct level of education to work with a range of different clients and you will not be able to obtain Public Liability Insurance which is necessary requirement.

You will also need to have achieved a ‘recognised’ Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training qualification – one that is awarded by a recognised Awarding Body (YMCA Awards or Active IQ), and delivered by an Approved Training Provider. 

Who can a Level 3 Personal Trainer work with?

An individual who has completed a recognised Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training qualification, can work with any individual who does not require specialist requirments.

If working wih an indiividual who does require specialist advice, a Personal Trainer can still help with the exercise delivery in some cases, but will need to be directed and advised by another professional, such as a Doctor or  Physiotherapist.

What salary can I expect to earn on completing the Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instrcuting and Personal Training course with Performance Training Academy?

As an employed Personal Trainer, you can expect to earn between £20k – £35k per year, depending on gym and location.

A self-employed Personal Trainer can work part-time hours and look to earn around £20k per year, or can work full-time in their fitness business and push their yearly income to £40k – £50k per year, and can even push further to £65k per year plus.

We can work with all of our students on the business planning stage and then the set-up and growth of their business. In this process we can clearly show you how you can achieve the yearly income that you want.

TOM JOHNSON

Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing & Personal Training

Exeter Chief & England Rugby player

I used Performance Training Academy to gain my Level 2 & 3 Personal Training qualifications. I found the course content to be up to date, relevant and practical in today’s ever changing world of fitness and health. I managed to do this whilst still undertaking my full time job as a professional rugby player due to his flexibility.

I knew Ash as a personal trainer and regarded him as a focused and thorough individual with exceptionally high professional standards. Needless to say he had transferred these qualities into Performance Training Academy.

This Personal Training course has left me with confidence both in a coaching sense and theoretical sense for my future career in the health and fitness industry. I would not hesitate to recommend Performance Training Academy to anyone interested in becoming a Personal Trainer.

ANDY BURNS

Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing & Personal Training

Former Armed Forces

 From initial contact with Ashley Hough, the founder of Performance Training Academy, right through to gaining my level 3 qualifications the support I received was second to none. Ash has an encyclopaedic depth of knowledge of everything to do with the Health & Fitness industry and his years of experience working as a Personal Trainer and running his own business comes across really well in the course content.

His staff are also second to none. Part of his team include Pete and Will, who deliver parts of the training and assessments in a gym based environment. Again both are experts in the fitness industry.

PTA goes the extra mile to deliver additional useful content in the form of separate business development modules online, which is extremely useful when people like me are looking to set up their own business once qualified but may not necessarily have the knowledge to do it.

The online content is amazing; it keeps you engaged throughout and is detailed and very interesting. 

In summary, in my opinion, Performance Training Academy is by far the best training provider of the Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification. I would thoroughly and whole heartedly recommend them to any one.

    The course was run extremely well, the content and its delivery I cannot fault. Everyone in the room was of different abilities yet the lessons and practicals were always really well balanced and fun! I really enjoyed the anatomy and physiology lessons, and the strength and conditioning type practicals. My tutor Ash and the whole group were fantastic and made me feel really confident as I progressed through the course.
