I'm Bryan Wisdom. I've spent 30 years coaching the over-50 population out of pain and back into the activities they love. Twenty of those years have been right here in Mooresville, North Carolina, running Wisdom Movement Method Fitness.
I'm looking for one more A-player trainer to join our team.
If you're a personal trainer who got into this work because you genuinely love coaching people… but you're tired of commercial gyms, split shifts, $12 session splits, and chasing 30+ clients you can't really help… keep reading.
This is different.
Who We Are
We help the over 50 population with body pain and/or weight gain transform their lives. We do it in 1:1 private suites, focused on posture, joint range of motion, and lower impact strength training.
Our purpose: We help people move and feel better for a lifetime.
Our clients are 45–75 year olds — professional, coachable, and they pay $69–$105 per session because they value the work. They're not looking for a workout. They're looking for a coach.
Why This Isn't a Commercial Gym
- 1:1 sessions in your own private suite — no floor, no distractions, no intimidation
- Mostly daytime hours — clean schedule, no late-night chaos
- Premium clientele — 45–80 year olds, professional, coachable, take the work seriously
- Proprietary methodology — you get certified in the Wisdom Movement Method™
- A real team — 4 trainers, an Operations Director, and Bryan all rowing in the same direction
- A leader who's been doing this 30 years and still loves it
What You'll Earn
- Starting per-session rate: $19+ (paid per session, no waiting around)
- Year 2 trainers typically earning $40K–$50K+
- Year 3+ A-player trainers earning $55K–$70K+ with bonuses
- Monthly bonuses tied to KPIs you control
- Uncapped referral commissions
- Reimbursement for national certification + ongoing CEUs
- Health insurance, PTO, professional development
What Your Week Looks Like
- Monday–Friday daytime hours (most sessions between 6am–6pm), Saturday mornings
- Daily 3-minute Huddles with the team to start the day
- Weekly Team Meeting + 1:1 Employee Development Meeting with leadership
- Real coaching, real mentoring, real career path — not just "shifts"
Who You'll Learn From
Listen — most personal trainers never get a real mentor. That's a problem. Here's what you'll have access to:
- 30 years coaching the 50+ population (Bryan started at age 21)
- B.S. Kinesiology, M.A. Education, NSCA Certified
- Founder of the Wisdom Movement Method™
- Author of Born to Move (2nd Edition, May 2026)
- Host of the Wisdom Movement Podcast on WHIP Radio, Mooresville, NC
I built this company because I believe a great trainer can change someone's life. My job is to make you a great trainer.
Who We Hire (Our Core Values)
1. Love, Protect & Respect
2. "We" Not "Me"
3. Prioritize & Execute
4. Results Focused
5. Solutions Based
6. Extreme Ownership
If those land for you, we should talk. If they don't… we're not the fit. That's OK.
The 3 Things You'll Need to Bring
7. Positive attitude every single day. If you can't bring this, none of the rest matters. Please don't apply.
8. A real interest in the 50+ population. Posture, biomechanics, longevity — this is where the future of the industry is going. We're already there.
9. Coachable. You're going to learn our systems and follow them. You're also going to be heard, developed, and grown.
Requirements
- Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science, Kinesiology, or related field preferred
- Will consider candidates without degrees who have proven training experience and certification
- NSCA, NASM, ACSM, ACE, or equivalent certification — or willing to earn one within 90 days (we reimburse)
- 1+ year personal training experience preferred
- Must live in or near Mooresville, NC — no relocation required
Application Process — 3 Simple Steps
10. Apply through Indeed with your resume AND a short note answering: "Why do you want to coach the 50+ population?"
11. 15-minute phone screen with our Operations Director
12. Working interview at the studio — you'll see the rooms, meet the team, and we'll see if this is a fit for both of us
Why I'm Posting This
We're not desperate. We're building a bench.
The trainers I hire stay, grow, and earn well. The trainers who don't fit our values don't last long — and that's OK.
If you've been waiting for a place that takes coaching seriously… where you can actually mentor your clients and build a career… come talk to us.
Much Love,
