JOB TITLE: Personal Trainer — Independent (Bring Your Own Clients)
EMPLOYMENT TYPE: Contract
PAY: Range, $40 to $80 per hour (or if you charge more, you can!)
EXPECTED HOURS: You make your own hours, 24-7 access availability included.
BENEFITS: Flexible schedule + Gym membership
HIRING TIMELINE: 1 to 2 weeks
NUMBER TO HIRE IN 30 DAYS: 4
JOB DESCRIPTION:
Manic Training Highlands Ranch is opening our doors to qualified independent personal trainers who already have a client book and want a real gym to call home. If you’re tired of training out of garages, driving around to people’s houses and hauling all those weights in and out, parks-waiting-for-those-stupid-permits, big-box gyms with no soul, or your living room, this is built for you.
This is NOT a W-2 employee position. We are not hiring trainers. We are inviting them in.
You run your business. We provide the space, the equipment, and the environment to grow.
THE ARRANGEMENT
You pay $475 per month for full access to a fully-equipped premium training studio. You bring your clients in and train them on your own schedule, at your own rates, with no commission and no revenue share. You keep 100% of what you charge your clients. We don’t take a cut of your sessions, ever.
Your first month is on us. Bring your clients in, see if the space works for your business, and only start paying after you’ve proven the fit that first month.
WHAT YOU GET FOR $475 A MONTH
A beautiful, fully-equipped functional fitness gym and complete weight room in Highlands Ranch (2000 E County Line Rd) built for serious training, not a corporate box.
We have:
Three squat racks with multiple-weight barbells
Full dumbbell and kettlebell ranges
Standard treadmill plus a dedicated speed-work treadmill.
Rigs, sleds, and conditioning gear.
Recovery and mobility space for warm-ups, cooldowns, and accessory work.
TV with cable and music access so you can run your sessions your way.
A/C and Heat!
Weight Vests
Trap Bars for isolated deadlifts
And MORE! (See Pics or contact Jason to make an appt to see it!)
Everything you need to take a client from beginner to advanced athlete.
You also get:
Your own access during all open gym hours PLUS 24 hour access available!
Freedom to set your own schedule
Freedom to set your own rates
No client fees, no commission, no revenue split
A clean, professional space your clients will be proud to train at
A community of fitness-minded people, not a sterile chain
The option to be mentored, (if you ever want it) by a Master Trainer with 27 years in Fitness and Nutrition, A Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science, 10 different Exercise and Fitness Certifications, 30 years of military service, and former Army Master Fitness Trainer credentials.
WHY MANIC
Most gyms either charge trainers a commission on every session (you grow, they win bigger) or pay-per-client fees that nickel-and-dime you to death. We don’t do either. One flat rate. No surprises. The more you grow, the more YOU make—not us.
Compare $475 a month to commission studios that take 30 to 50% of every session. If you train 10 clients a week at $80 a session, a commission studio takes $1,000 to $1,600 a month from you. At Manic, you pay $475 and keep the rest.
We built Manic to be the kind of gym we’d want to train at. Real equipment. Real community. Real space to do work. Black and orange. No mirrors-and-EDM nonsense.
WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Independent personal trainers who:
Have a current, recognized personal training certification (NASM, ACE, ISSA, NSCA, ACSM, or equivalent)
Carry their own professional liability insurance
Are current on CPR/AED
Already have paying clients you’re training somewhere else or you want paying clients.
Want a professional home base for your business
Take your craft seriously and treat clients well
WHO WE’RE NOT LOOKING FOR
If you’re looking for a salary, hourly pay, leads provided by the gym, or someone to build your business for you, this isn’t the right fit. We don’t provide clients, we don’t pay you, and we don’t manage your schedule. We provide the space and the environment. You bring everything else. IF you would like to also be an Official Manic Training Coach, we can audition you for the role.
A NOTE ON SHARED SPACE
This is a working gym, not a private facility. Trainers share the floor with our members and other independent trainers. The Manic Training Coaches use this smaller weight room from time to time but mainly use the larger gym next to the weight room for HIIT classes throughout the week.
To keep things fair for everyone, peak-hour rack use and back-to-back session scheduling will follow simple house rules outlined in your trainer agreement. Plenty of room for serious trainers to run a thriving business—just not designed for one trainer to lock down the whole floor.
HOW TO APPLY
In your application, briefly tell us:
How many clients you’re currently training
Where you’re training them now
Your certification(s) and any specialties
What you’re looking for in a gym home
We’ll respond to qualified applicants within a few days to set up a tour of the space. Photos of the gym are on our company profile—come see it for yourself.
