Hi guys,
I'm a relative new guy in the training industry, and I've noticed something that I don't know how to deal with. How do you deal with being friendly, a team player, etc. (All the wonderfull things they tell you about the teamwork of the trainers when they hire you), and the competition within a club where you are compteting for people to train. It seems like everyone is on the same team, until it comes to getting a client, then it's all for yourself. I'm not saying other trainers are being unethical, it's just that as a struggling PT, it seems like whomever is the quickest and has the best connections with management, gets the best/most leads.
