ABOUT ARMORFIT

ArmorFit is a fitness studio dedicated to helping people become stronger for everyday life through thoughtful coaching, individualized support, and genuine community.

ArmorFit welcomes clients and team members of all backgrounds. Employees are not required to hold or participate in any particular religious belief or practice.

 

THE OPPORTUNITY

ArmorFit offers a limited number of facility-rental opportunities for qualified independent personal trainers who want to operate their own training businesses inside a professional fitness facility.  This is not a W-2 employment position, commission arrangement, or client-referral position. Independent trainers are responsible for building and operating their own businesses, finding their own clients, establishing their own rates, managing their own schedules, and collecting their own payments.

 

HOW THE ARRANGEMENT WORKS

• Independent trainers pay ArmorFit $600 in monthly facility rent

• Trainers find and maintain their own clients

• Trainers establish their own services and rates

• Trainers manage their own schedules and appointments

• Trainers collect and process their own client payments 

• Trainers create their own programs and determine how their services are delivered

• Trainers retain the revenue earned from their clients

• Trainers are responsible for their own business expenses, taxes, records, insurance, and professional obligations

• Independent trainers are not listed or promoted on the ArmorFit website

• ArmorFit does not guarantee clients, leads, referrals, income, or a minimum number of training hours

 

FACILITY USE

The $600 monthly rent provides approved access to ArmorFit’s designated personal-training areas and shared fitness equipment during permitted facility hours.  NO SUNDAY ACCESS

 

Facility access is subject to equipment availability, safety requirements, established capacity limits, and the terms of the written facility-rental agreement. Independent trainers may not interfere with ArmorFit classes, employee training sessions, scheduled events, or another trainer’s reserved space.

Access may not be transferred or shared with another trainer. Only approved clients with the required waiver and emergency information on file may accompany the trainer into the facility.  ArmorFit’s name, logo, booking system, client list, and marketing platforms are not included in the rental arrangement.

• Establish and communicate their own rates, packages, payment policies, and cancellation policies

• Maintain their own client records and protect client confidentiality

• Maintain a current nationally recognized personal training certification

• Maintain current CPR/AED certification

• Maintain professional liability insurance in the amount required by ArmorFit

• Provide ArmorFit with current copies of all required certifications and insurance documents

• Ensure each client has an ArmorFit facility waiver and emergency contact information on file before training

• Operate in compliance with applicable laws, professional standards, and certification requirements

• Keep training areas and equipment clean, organized, and ready for use

• Use equipment safely and report any damage or facility concern promptly

• Respect facility hours, shared equipment, ArmorFit members, employees, and other independent professionals

• Follow ArmorFit’s reasonable facility-access, safety, sanitation, and conduct policies

• Avoid presenting themselves as an ArmorFit employee or authorized representative

• Contribute to a welcoming and respectful environment for individuals of all backgrounds

 

INDEPENDENT BUSINESS RESPONSIBILITIES

Independent trainers are solely responsible for:

• Marketing and promoting their services

• Acquiring and retaining clients

• Establishing their own business name and professional identity

• Determining their own training methods and programming practices

• Setting and collecting their own rates

• Managing cancellations, refunds, payment disputes, and unpaid balances

• Paying all applicable self-employment and business taxes

• Maintaining required business registrations, insurance, certifications, and records

• Providing any specialized equipment that is not supplied or approved by ArmorFit

• Handling their own client communication and administrative responsibilities

 

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Current nationally recognized personal training certification

• Current CPR/AED certification

• Active professional liability insurance

• Established personal-training business or a clear plan for independently acquiring clients

• Strong understanding of exercise safety, program design, and professional boundaries

• Ability to manage scheduling, billing, records, and client communication independently

• Dependability, professionalism, and respect for a shared facility

• Willingness to sign and comply with ArmorFit’s facility-rental agreement

 

 

IMPORTANT DISTINCTIONS

Independent trainers are self-employed fitness professionals and are not ArmorFit employees.

Independent trainers do not receive employee wages, payroll-tax contributions, benefits, paid administrative time, ArmorFit-managed scheduling, ArmorFit marketing, or guaranteed client referrals. They may not represent their services as being provided, supervised, or guaranteed by ArmorFit.

Final access privileges, scheduling procedures, insurance requirements, facility rules, payment terms, and termination provisions will be established in a written facility-rental agreement.

 

IDEAL CANDIDATE

This opportunity is best suited for an established, self-directed personal trainer who already has clients or is prepared to build a client base independently.

 

The ideal trainer operates professionally, respects shared spaces, communicates clearly, maintains appropriate business and client records, and wants the freedom to run an independent personal-training business without purchasing or maintaining a private gym.
