EP #144 Eric Wong Kai Pun: Should You Work In A Commercial Gym?

Eric Wong Kai Pun, the Director of Personal Training at Goodlife - one of the biggest gym companies in the entire world, joins to chat about whether trainers should still work within a commercial gym setting. We talk about the pros and cons, the valuable skills you can learn, and the difference in starting a career now in fitness vs 10-20 years ago before social media played a role. We discuss the tradeoffs between support and stability and the work needed to work on your own and build a brand. We also talk about some red flags to watch for within any work space that should have you consider moving where you work.
