This Isn't Your Average Gym Job
Most personal trainers spend their careers fighting for floor space at a big-box gym, juggling 30 clients they barely know, and watching their passion for the work slowly grind down.
That's not what we do here.
Maxed Out Fitness is Annapolis's top-rated gym, boot camp, and personal trainer — three years running, voted Best of Annapolis by What's Up? Media. We are an elite boutique training studio, woman and veteran owned, built on a simple belief: every person deserves customized experiences, focused attention, fierce encouragement, and a trainer who is as invested in their success as they are.
We are growing — and we are looking for one to two exceptional trainers to grow with us.
What You'll Do
You'll work one-on-one and in small groups with a hand-selected clientele of high-achieving professionals, athletes, seniors, and motivated individuals who have specifically chosen a premium, boutique experience. These are not drop-in clients. They are committed, engaged, and expect the best — which means you will need to bring it every single session.
Your day-to-day includes:
- Designing and delivering customized training programs across our service lines: personal training, athletic training, small group fitness, boot camp, senior fitness, and prenatal/postnatal fitness
- Conducting thorough initial consultations to assess goals, history, limitations, and lifestyle
- Building genuine relationships and tracking client progress over time
- Collaborating with our team on nutritional guidance and strategic meal planning
- Contributing to the culture and energy that has made Maxed Out the best in Annapolis
As we launch our new Integrated Functional Medicine division, high-performing trainers will have the opportunity to grow into a more expanded role — working alongside licensed medical professionals on integrated fitness and wellness protocols. This is a ground-floor opportunity in a genuinely differentiated service model.
What We're Looking For
Non-negotiables:
- Minimum 3 years of personal training experience in a professional setting
- Nationally recognized certification (NASM, ACE, NSCA, ACSM, or equivalent)
- CPR/AED certified
- Demonstrated experience with diverse client populations — including athletes, seniors, and special populations
- Exceptional communication skills and a genuine passion for people, not just fitness
- The self-discipline, reliability, and professionalism that a boutique, appointment-based studio demands
- Morning and evening availability - that's when clients want to train! One Saturday Boot Camp per month required.
Our Culture
We are powerful, direct, and genuinely caring. We don't tolerate mediocrity — in ourselves or our work — but we also don't believe in tearing people down. We believe in hope, vision, and power. We show up every day to passionately inspire the people in front of us.
If that resonates with you — if you want to be part of a team that holds itself to a higher standard and treats every client like they're the most important person in the room — we want to talk to you.
How to Apply
Submit your resume, a current certification, and a brief note (no more than 200 words) telling us why Maxed Out Fitness is the right fit for you specifically — not just any gym.
Generic applications get generic responses. Tell us something real.
