If 2020 has taught the fitness industry anything, it’s that when the unexpected happens, being flexible and adaptable is an important quality to have as a personal trainer. This is our guide on how to become a suspended movement training specialist.

This year, we’ve seen gyms close (*twice*) with exercise online and outdoors rising. If your client base is in the one-to one-training area, or you have clients who have been uncomfortable with returning to training in a gym, it’s important that you find viable solutions that enable you to keep earning a living.

At T2, we recommend you should always look to expand your skillset, learn new training techniques and boost your qualifications. But, knowing which one will work best in your case can be tricky, as you don’t have time nor money to waste on something that is just a temporary fitness fad.

In this post, we will tell you how to become a suspended movement training specialist, and also why doing so is good choice, so read on!

 

Why is Specializing in Suspended Movement Training a Good Idea?

Suspended movement training has become increasingly popular, primarily thanks to TRX, MiloKit, Jungle Gym a few other brands who dominate the suspension training arena.

But, if this type of exercise wasn’t effective and convenient, its popularity would fade in no time. Instead, it keeps rising, and suspension training becoming part of the staple station on the gym floor.

Perhaps more importantly in 2020, because suspension training equipment is affordable, versatile, and convenient, it has become a staple of home and outdoor fitness too. Suspension training equipment is lightweight and small in size, and it is very easy to carry around.

In essence, you’re taking a portable gym with you: you can meet clients in parks or gardens to provide 1-on-1 personal training, even when gyms are closed.

Simply attach the suspension training equipment to bars, fences, trees or any other piece of sturdy equipment already there, giving you even the tools you need to provide a well-rounded session for your client.

Getting a suspension training qualification has the potential to pay off. Not only do gyms look hire quality and educated PTs, but you will also be able to train clients privately, anywhere you want, without investing heavily in exercise equipment.
