PAPERWORK 

Please fill out the following paperwork. 

POSITION DESCRIPTIONS

FITNESS MODULE COACHING 

This position is all about creating fun, exciting, and rewarding HIIT experiences for our members. The identity of a FitMod coach should be passionate, optimistic, and detail-oriented. A person that can talk to anyone, and would enjoy contributing to a world-class fitness experience. An individual who would go all-in on an 80’s themed workout and might just drop and do a few burpees for fun with the members. 

As a FitMod Coach, you will be responsible for delivering scientifically predesigned workouts per session. This position requires a strong ability to coach, manage time and motivate multiple clients in a group setting. A UGL coach must focus on well-rounded fitness workouts, including endurance, strength, and power, using the tools given to optimize the client’s experience and results.

  • Before the training session starts, mingle with clients that are already there. Please do your best to help them speak amongst each other. 

  • If it's someone's first time or is in a trial phase, introduce them to a few people, so they don't feel isolated and introduce them to the entire group during the warm-up phase, so they feel welcome. 

  • Assure that all equipment needed is laid out ahead of time and all stations are set for the designated workout.

  • Be prepared. Know the movements ahead of time, and be sure you know the training format ahead of time. 

  • As members walk in, sign them out using the mind-body app to charge account. 

  • Be enthusiastic, assertive, helpful, and motivating. 

  • Be sure to pick a high-paced music playlist before the training session to keep the clients in that high-intensity tempo.  

  • Must wear the microphone so that everyone can hear you clearly over the music. 

  • Demonstrate every movement before starting the particular block of the workout. Be sure everyone understands what you're asking of them.  

  • During the session, walk around, check forms, motivate and keep the member's safety at the forefront. 

  • Please have the awareness to capture fun moments and share them with our social media communities. Always be on the lookout for opportunities to take great pictures/videos. This is paramount for the success and enthusiasm of the Fitness Modules. 

AFTER THE WORKOUT

  • After the training session, please thank everyone for attending and share any announcements that may need to be relayed to the group.

  • Begin picking up the equipment or get ready for the next group session.
