Because I am not a "born" athlete myself, I can put myself in my customers' shoes!

Certified Personal Trainer—The Path to Self-Employment

Who are you, how old are you, and when did you complete your training?
Rene Maier, born on January 27, 1981; begantraining in July 2015
How long have you been involved in sports, and what sports do you practice?
After a 15-year break from sports, I started exercising again at age 30 (strength and endurance training)
Why did you want to pursue training in the fitness field?
To find out if what I’m doing is actually “right.”
Which training institutes did you look into, and why did youultimatelychoose the Flexyfit Sports Academy?
WIFI, Vitalakademie, and Flexyfit Sports Academy. You were the quickest to respond to my inquiry, and the informational meeting with Melanie convinced me that I’d come to the right place. Did you already have a specific plan before the training about what you wanted to do afterward?
No, I never planned to pursue a career in this field. Carina Haimbl is the reason I decided to become a trainer during the course.
What are you doing now, or what would you like to do?
I’ve been a self-employed trainer for almost two years now, offering corporate training, group sessions, and personal training, as well as mobile EMS training in the St. Pölten area.
Why do clients train with you—what makes you so successful?
Because I’m not a “natural” athlete! Before I started working out at age 30, I was inflexible and, at 100 kg, far too heavy for my height of 1.75 cm. That’s why I know exactly what it takes to change that and can perfectly put myself in my clients’ shoes.
I also believe I offer a very well-rounded workout (flexibility, endurance, strength, and coordination).
What other goals do you have?
To always stay up to date, try new things, and thus always offer the BEST training for my clients.
