Michelle,
Most gyms charge about $60-$70 an hour, or more for a trainer. And the trainer, if their lucky, only keeps 1/2 of that.
So when I decided 1.5 years ago to train in the house, I posted an ad on Craigslist which was very simple and clear.
Looking for a trainer, must have boxing/ring/mitt experience. Weight training, cardio, etc.
I'm willing to pay $35hr and will workout, consistently. I need two hours, back to back, 3x a week in the morning. An hour for me and an hour for my wife. I will buy sessions as a package.
I must have gotten 100 replies from trainers who were willing to work at that price. Literally, there were so many responses, I only looked at trainers who sent pictures. I didn't want some huge dude training me and the Mrs.
I interviewed one trainer, did a trial session with him and he has been training us ever since.
And the reality of the situation is, he makes as much training us as he would training anyone else in a gym that he doesn't own. We are very consistent and reliable and we've been at it for over 1.5 years.
Plus, I make breakfast for everyone after the workout
