Don’t Just Wait for Clients: Real Tactics to Build Your Personal Training Business
Tuesday, 9 December, 2025
Struggling to find new personal training clients? You’re not alone! In this eye-opening episode of the “NASM CPT Podcast,” host Rick Richey break down the five most common strategies that aren't working for trainers hoping to expand their client base—and reveal what actually gets results. Are you simply waiting for your fitness manager to send clients your way? Posting on social media and hearing only crickets? Approaching friends and family who just want freebies? Dr. Richey dives deep into why these popular tactics fall flat for most trainers—and shares how the real secret lies in consistent effort, authentic relationships, and a long-game approach. You’ll get actionable, real-world advice for building trust on the gym floor, leveraging the power of social proof, and making yourself truly visible (even if that means taking a page from the fearless James of Bryant Park with his sandwich board and bullhorn). Plus, discover must-have tips on positioning yourself for success, from smart pricing to the importance of being seen as someone who trains—not just talks about it.
