Here’s a general overview of some common Group Instructor/Personal Trainer responsibilities:

• Following Existing Programs: Temporary instructors primarily focus on delivering pre-existing exercise programs as designed by the gym or the regular instructor. This involves carefully reviewing class plans and familiarizing themselves with the exercises, format, and music beforehand.
• Adaptability: While following the program, temporary instructors may need to make minor adjustments on the fly. This could involve offering modifications for different fitness levels or shortening/lengthening segments based on time constraints.
• Clear Instruction and Demonstration: Even without in-depth knowledge of the specific program, clear explanation and demonstration of exercises are essential. Temporary instructors should ensure participants understand movements and proper form to maximize effectiveness and prevent injury.

Preparation and Set-Up:

• Reviewing Class Materials: Carefully reviewing existing class plans, including notes, playlists, and any equipment requirements is crucial. This ensures a smooth flow of the class and avoids surprises.
• Setting Up the Space: Temporary instructors may be responsible for setting up the workout area, arranging equipment like mats, weights, or step platforms according to the planned exercises.

Participant Engagement and Safety:

• Creating a Welcoming Environment: Despite being temporary, instructors should strive to create a positive and inclusive atmosphere where participants feel comfortable and motivated.
• Safety Focus: Safety is paramount. Temporary instructors should be aware of common exercise injuries and emphasize proper form throughout the class.
• Offering Modifications: Prepared to offer variations of exercises to accommodate participants with different fitness levels or limitations.
