Most personal trainers begin by instructing group fitness classes in a health club. Being a group fitness instructor provides a way to acquire clients for personal training. Trainers who are employed by large fitness centers may be promoted to the position of personal training director. These workers supervise and schedule other personal trainers and manage department budgets. Other personal trainers may choose to branch out and either teach in a client's home or start their own gym that offers personal training.
