What are the responsibilities and job description for the Your Path to Becoming a Top Personal Trainer position at PowerStrength Training Systems?

Apply if you’re serious about becoming one of the best Personal Trainers in Fitness & Sports Performance.


Most personal trainers don’t last more than 3 years. 


Why? 


Because they don’t start with the right foundation. 


The PowerStrength Internship Experience gives you the reps, mentorship, and proven system to launch a real career in fitness. 


With the largest team of personal trainers in the private sector in the state - we know the truth. 


The truth is, the fitness industry needs great trainers more than ever. 


Families and athletes are searching for safe, professional, and proven training experiences — but too many trainers burn out early because they never learn how to build a sustainable career - or they fall into a broken business model with minimal upward mobility. 


That’s why starting with the right experience now matters - and why the PowerStrength Internship is often called a “cheat code” to launching a stable fitness career.


For 14 years, PowerStrength Training Systems has been West Michigan’s trusted leader in personal training and sports performance. With 8 premier facilities in areas of Alpine, Kentwood, Jenison, Plainfield, Holland, and Byron Center - we’ve helped thousands of local athletes and community members be stronger versions of themselves.


More specifically, we work with: 

  • Athletes (3rd–12th grade, College, & Pro’s) get faster, stronger, and more confident.
  • Adults ages 40–65 build durable strength, energy, and health for added longevity living an active lifestyle.


This isn’t your typical Internship. 


You’ll gain thousands of real-world coaching reps, mentorship from a 35 member All-Star Team, and career training that prepares you to thrive in the fitness industry.


What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-On Coaching Reps – Train one of the largest and most diverse client bases in the Midwest.
  • Mentorship & Networking – Learn directly from industry leaders and join our professional network.
  • Proven Curriculum – Follow structured online modules, practicals, and workshops from our Director of Training who has worked with more athletes than anyone in West Michigan. As well as career building workshops from our Founder & CEO, Mark Ehnis.
  • Career Readiness – Graduate confident, experienced, and prepared to be hired as a top trainer anywhere in the country.


Why This Internship Matters

  • The average personal trainer career lasts less than 3 years.
  • PowerStrength has successfully developed 100 interns, many of whom now work full-time in fitness.
  • You’ll 20x your ability as a trainer (no exaggeration) by combining reps, feedback, and real-world learning.


Who We’re Looking For

  • Students serious about careers in personal training, fitness, or athletic development
  • Committed, professional, reliable, and eager to learn
  • Ready to engage fully in all sessions, be a strong extension of our Team, and feedback


Spots are limited — only a select group of applicants are accepted each semester.
