24 Hour Fitness Pay

I work at 24 Hour Fitness and the pay structure starts at $7 flat rate per hour. 24 Hour Fitness personal trainers get a bonus for each session. It is a certain percentage based on the number of personal trainer certifications you have. If you have one cert you get paid a 7% bonus, if you have two certs the bonus is closer to 10%. These percentages are on the total package you sell to the client. So if you are good at selling you can do alright. But if you are just standing around the gym hoping for clients, you won't last long.

can anybody confirm this pay structure applies to all 24 hour fitness jobs system wide? or is this just a local policy?

$7.01
by: Anonymous

I'm in California and it's $7.01 flat rate and then it moves up slowly based on how many certifications you have. I think it maxes out around $25 for a Master Trainer. The way you make more than that is based on the commissions you make from selling the fitness (solution) packages.

Something like that but...
by: Kathy

I'm not sure how old these comments are since nothing is dated, but we make minimum wage for the hours we work plus a percentage of the value of each session we train. In California minimum wage as of Jan. 2008 is $8.00/hour. The value of the session depends on the size of the package sold--the bigger the package the lower the per session value. And yes, the percentage is based on your personal certification level. As of January 2008 the percentage for California for a Personal Trainer 1 (one outside cert) is 11%, a Personal Trainer 2(two outside certs) makes 17% and it goes up to either 21 or 22% for the third cert, which is high as it goes. But different states have different percentages (California percentages dropped to account for the increase in minimum wage), and obviously minimum wage varies by state.

In addition to the per session compensation, we make a 20% bonus up front when we sell a package. There are additional bonuses offered for high monthly sales. The company also reimburses $200 per cert for certification costs to encourage trainers to strive to increase their knowledge and skills.

I am currently a PT2...I make $8.00 plus 17% which works out to $18.02 to train a 50 min. session valued at $60. Definitely, get all certs done as soon as possible. I have one to go and should have it before June 2008.
