The Show Up Fitness Podcast ·

2026/04/22

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! Anyone can get certified. Very few know how to charge. Most trainers underprice because they lack confidence, experience, and a real system. So they default to $40 to $60 sessions… and wonder why they burn out. In this episode, we break down how to actually set your personal training rates based on value, not fear. You’ll learn: Why cheap trainers struggle to survive How to justify $100 to $300 per sessi...

2026/04/17

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! Your knee pain might not be a “weak glute” problem or a fancy gadget problem. It might be one missing piece of motion: full knee extension. When the knee can’t straighten, the quad stays inhibited, your gait gets weird, and every step becomes practice at not using the muscle that’s supposed to protect the joint. That’s why we brought on Dr. Justin Farnsworth, physical therapist and founder of Rebuilt Strength Method and Pro Ap...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! Meathead_rehab = DPT breakdown of the FMS. A movement screen can feel like a truth serum, but what if it’s really just a narrow test that gets mistaken for a diagnosis? We sit down with Dr Motley (DPT) to talk through the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), why it often fails great athletes, and how it gets misused by trainers and clinicians who turn scores into scary predictions. If you’ve ever heard “you’re a 1 here, so you’re...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! You can take classes six days a week, sweat through your clothes, and still feel stuck when you want bigger glutes, a tighter waist, and that athletic “trained” look. We’re talking about the classic cardio bunny: the ClassPass regular who does Pilates, yoga, and body pump style workouts, yet never gets the overload needed for real muscle growth. The fix is not more exhaustion. The fix is a better assessment and a plan that mat...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! A client tells you they have diabetes, hands you their card, signs up for training and then refuses to get medical clearance. Do you keep the money and train them anyway, or do you draw a hard line and risk the refund? We walk through the real decision personal trainers face when safety, ethics, and liability collide, including why “it depends” really means “it depends on your documentation and your preparedness.” We br...

I’m talking with Donovan, a coach at Lifetime Dumbo in downtown Brooklyn, about what actually makes runners improve: a clean foundation, the right intensity, and a mindset that doesn’t crumble when things get uncomfortable. He’s also training for the New York Marathon, so this isn’t theory, it’s lived exper...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! A client tells you they have a fused disc and suddenly every squat, hinge, and loaded carry feels like a liability. We break that moment down into a repeatable coaching process so you can stop guessing and start programming with clarity. From the first questions we ask about surgery timing and what level was fused, to when it’s worth looping in the surgeon or physical therapist, we map out how strong coaching begins long befor...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! Most trainers think the “assessment” is where you prove how smart you are. We think it’s where you prove you’re safe, clear, and worth paying. We break down a client assessment process that changes based on context, whether you’re stuck doing a required movement screen at a big gym or you’re an independent personal trainer building your own system. The through-line is simple: it depends on the person, but your standards stay h...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! “Get certified and start making $100K” sounds great until you are standing on a gym floor with five clients back to back and no real plan. We get blunt about why the personal training industry chews up new coaches, and why the biggest problem is not motivation, it is the lack of supervised experience, real systems, and honest expectations. If you are thinking about becoming a personal trainer, or you are already certified but ...

We dig into bat speed and bat velocity through a Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research study on warm-up devices, then translate it into coaching decisions you can actually use with baseball players.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why! A physical therapist can be the difference between being “just another trainer” and becoming the coach doctors actually trust. We kick off with a real question from Wayne in Alaska: he found a promising DPT partner, but he’s early in the relationship and doesn’t have clients to refer yet. So how do you grow that connection so you’re the first trainer they think of when a patient needs strength training, return-to-sport work, o...
