I was a trainer for these guys back in 2020. I recently tried to contact them several times to obtain tax information and they just act clueless and tell me someone from the finance team will call me back (which they never have after several attempts). For the training side of it, it was helpful in COVID to get clients wanting to work out at home but the amount they charge monthly, + the % they take from each client leaves you basically making minimum wage. If you want to pay to be a minimum wage-20-25$/hr trainer, go ahead and sign up here. Otherwise, be smarter. More...

i was a trainer for this company and it is a complete scam if you are applying for a job here "RUN AWAY" they will treat you really badly they may say your getting a good salary but it is all scam and once you get to working they take out most of the money you have agreed on and if you want to have someone help you get a workout plan there are many other places that could actually help you do not waste your money because this company has no management over trainers and the way they work. i am trying to be as unbiased as i can and i would definitely not recommend this place. just "RUN AWAY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE" More...

Avoid this company as they make profit from personal trainers. Also, they make discriminatory decision for the personal trainer position. Lastly, they intentionally ignore your email inquiries. More...

Last week I emailed to have my contract cancelled. I got no response so the next day I called to follow up and was told they'll escalate it and give me a call back. I called again because I didn't want to be charged extra for the service I wasn't using. I was given the same response. 1 week later I see charges on my credit card that didn't add up so I give them another call...and you guessed it .. same response. "I'll escalate it and someone will give you a call back." When I was thinking of joining I didn't have to wait long for a call but now that I am trying to leave I can't seem to get a hold of anyone who can help. Ridiculously poor customer service. I am still waiting on that call back by the way. More...

Community members were complaining about the services of fitness on the go, PT trainers themselves were saying they worked for free because they don't help get leads. I applied myself to see what they meant. The cost is nearly half to set up your own PT business, and you could end up working for free as they don't help with leads. Interviewer was late, rescheduled and the background was unkept. 12 PT's in BC applied and none got called back, it very much is a scam prying on the uneducated to work for free. As if we don't have a group and all talk to each other about businesses in the space. More...

A guy named Mario from Fitness on the Go, who called me 20 minutes agao today and spent exactly 5 minutes and 8 seconds(accorinding to my phone records) to convice me to buy his product(a personal trainer I guess? ) but ended up saying "fuck off" and hung up on me. It was literally a "fuck off". What a guy! Such a person or a company still exits in 2021.... can't believe this is a legit company at all who hires people with such an "un"professional attitude and let them reach out to their potential customers. Thank God for allowing me to bypass this 'Fitness on the go' company. Mario, please, your attitude does fail people... I mean any ordinary people like myself. I am very disappointed by your approach and your attitude and thus "Fitness on the Go" company overall. Please stop doing this to other people if you keep calling around. More...

Any company that charges a monthly rate from trainers without providing client leads is not only unethical but should be illegal. It's a pyramid scheme and it's disgusting to make money off the backs off desperate people during a pandemic. More...

This company is not straight forward! They hook you in a one year contract with reasonable pricing per training session; however, if things doesn’t turn out and you want to stop they charge your premium $$$ for a start up quality trainer!!! No packages, No values for the price you paid. It had been a month since I requested cancellation and still they haven’t gotten back to to me with a solution. Bad company to do business with!!!!

Thanks to Andrew (Calgary) for giving me the option to do my initial session outdoors. I was impressed with his extensive experience and knowledge. He provided valuable suggestions on how to stretch and adjust my posture to ease tension on a swim shoulder injury and showed me a more effective modification for pushups other than on my knees that I’ve never seen before! Your time and money will be well spent on this seasoned professional. More...

Amazing service and support from Coleen here in Kamloops Fitness on the go! She was so supportive and made our first venture back into fitness for a while such fun and was incredibly informative. Will definitely be looking into this further. Fun to be at home ad do this too with instruction in real time rather than watching a video! Especially during COVID-19 restrictions More...

The initial interview was great. I have a long way to go but my trainer gave me so much encouragement that I just had to go ahead and get healthy.

I have been a client of Sarah, from Fitness On The Go for about 2 months now. I am pleased to say that I am very happy with her training.
I love how she is able to read my mood on any particular training day. So much so, that she will take it easy when she has too! Sometimes it’s not always go, go, go and I believe she gets it! From my perspective this is a lifestyle, not a race to the finish. I look forward to our work outs and that for me is enough. My weight loss is not drastic but gradual. I know for sure I am getting stronger.
Today I was able to do an exercise I wasn’t able to do before and it felt great! My endurance level has gone up a lot and my mood is elevated more than usual. Thank you Sarah!!

Fitness on The Go has changed my life! No excuses for not going to the gym when the gym comes to you. I save time on commuting, don’t deal with intimidating gym machines, and most of all, no putting off the gym until “tomorrow” - my trainer comes to me, customizes my workouts for me, gets me motivated, pushes me to work harder, be stronger, and be the healthiest version of myself. For anyone who is looking to workout, whether your new, or just need to change things up I cannot recommend Fitness On The Go enough for results that equal a happier, healthier, you! More...

Niels danudjaja has been my personal trainer for the last 2 years. I can honestly say I am a different person since we started training with him. 40 pounds lost and a whole lot of confidence gained( maybe to much). Niels gets to know your strengths and weaknesses and plays on your strengths to make you fall in love with fitness and get strong as hell without evan knowing your doing it. Niels brings a positive great attitude to each workout which make him a great motivator. Glad I made that call. More...

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
I think first and foremost is communication and listening to the client - what they like, don't like ect.. We will only be drill Sargents if you ask! (Just kidding). Many people work with personal trainers but the reality is, most trainers just aren't properly trained in program planning and progression in order to achieve results and correct any muscular imbalances or posture issues. Building a solid foundation and relationship with the client comes first. Holding the client accountable to we have set up to do in the beginning is just as important. If we have to text you everyday to see what you ate and if you completed your workout on your own, WE WILL! We are extremely dedicated to our clients.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Diligence. Patience. Not being too hard on yourself to slip-ups! We are all human. Who doesn't like a nice slice of pizza every once in awhile?! Don't hate me for this, but there is no secret! Hard work, a positive attitude and willingness to learn is exactly what will get you there. You have to have the right attitude and mindset that slowly but surely, you will get stronger, lose weight, and feel healthier one day at a time.
What do you love most about your job?
So I am a personal trainer and the owner of Fitness on the Go in the GTA. I have an awesome team of about 15 certified personal trainers that work for me. I am extremely picky of the trainers I decide to hire to service you. We travel to wherever is most convenient for you to train: at home, at work, at a park, in a gym! We are very flexible and work between 5am and 9pm. I love this job because I love all our fantastic stories of clients we have helped ranging from cancer patients to teenagers, families, seniors, companies, and even people in wheelchairs with limitations. Making a difference in someone else's life is why we wake up early every day.
What inspired you to start your own business?
More flexibility to be creative with clients. When you work for a big box gym, everything is very structured and you as a trainer have little to no say over what to do with the client. I wanted to be able to have the freedom to design my own programs how I felt was important for the client.
Why should our clients choose you?
With Fitness on the Go, you can be EXTREMELY confident in working with any one of our certified personal trainers. They are all screen the hand-selected to ensure our clients are safe and getting the results that they want. If the trainer we match you up with just isn't the right fit for you, feel free to switch at any time in your training program with us. We train our trainers to deliver "client-centred training". Our job is to motivate and hold you accountable to achieving your goals and show you that you are capable of SO MUCH MORE than you think :) LET'S DO THIS!
