Hey guys,

So essentially, I'm asking for advice. My background lies in Film Marketing and PR but I resigned a little while ago.

I'm trying to take advantage of this time I have and weigh up my options and my future career path.

I know that I would rather manage myself and work in a gym environment as opposed to an office.

I have a lot of interest in healthy living, hit the gym 5/6 times a week and eat nutritious food. I guess my future goal would be to advise people on nutrition as well as their workout routine (it astounds me how ignorant and vulnerable to marketing the British public are when it comes to food)

I understand that initially the money isn't great and that's fine, I've come to understand that a high-end salary is not the priority in my life, happiness is!

My questions are as below please:

Where would be the best place to get qualified?

How much does it cost and how long does it take?

Am I right in saying you would work for a gym initially and then work towards having your own clients?

If anyone who is reading this is a PT for a living, I'd appreciate any general thoughts.


Thanks in advance.
