This is me demonstrating what it feels like to run a fitness business during MCO.
-
RTS Malaysia was really getting warmed up. Three successful intakes down, and our delivery of the workshop was evolving nicely into the true foundational education experience we intended: to show coaches the level of information out there that they could be using to better their craft. And now, we’re completely cut off from providing the all-important practical element to the course 😔
-
Weekly PT sessions on @joompa were at an all-time high 📈 and now we’re operating at 10% capacity 📉
-
I’m not so deluded to think that I know enough about the virus to have an opinion on what the best solution truly is. I do know that the current state of affairs is destroying decades worth of hard work for a lot of people and it’s very difficult to watch 🥺 Like it or not, getting “the jab” seems to be the solution to stop that happening (or at least slow the bleeding).
-
I’m grateful that Joompa’s model was built to be capable of weathering this storm, and I hope that anyone in the industry who shares my passion for improving people’s fitness manages to stay afloat as well, somehow 🙏🏽

Plenty of people have given up the personal training profession recently to move into other business - and no judgement (or surprise) given the climate we find ourselves in 🌪 If you were a PT in the first place because it seemed easy, maybe e-commerce or something is a better option for you anyway. But if you’re a coach or a trainer who is genuinely dedicated to bettering the lives of those who place their faith, time and energy in you… I hope you find a way to stick around.

I’m pretty sure what awaits us on the other side will be worth it 💪🏽
