You will qualify with a deep and advanced understanding of a wide range of elements of fitness, from human anatomy to delivering a bespoke training programme.

Advanced Anatomy & Physiology for Health & Exercise

In this module, you will develop a strong understanding of how the human body works and responds to exercise, which you can apply to training your clients. You will also learn how to guide clients through flexibility and stretching movements.

Here you will expand your knowledge of nutrition and its importance in a physical activity programme. You will cover a range of dietary requirements and how to adapt your programmes to these clients.

Personal Training Delivery

Covering techniques to develop client motivation, this module will help you deliver an effective and dynamic personal training session that meets your client’s specific goals.

Programming Training Sessions

You’ll learn how to design personal training sessions with individual client needs in mind. This includes considerations for clients from special populations such as those with disabilities, as well as covering how to train clients outside of a gym environment.

Demonstrating Leadership

As a personal trainer, you will be a source of motivation for your clients! This module will help you develop your ability to lead by example and be the trusted advisor and support figure that your clients need.

Learning the Business

This module will cover all you need to know about the business of being a personal trainer, from how to market yourself to creating a successful and sustainable business model.

You will need to complete a series of practical and theoretical assessments to finish the Level 4 Personal Training course. Keep in mind, the qualification’s practical assessments are held at our in-person training centres.

Course Assessments

Students studying online will need to complete the following assessments to qualify as a Level 4 Personal Trainer.

  • Practical assessment on delivering a customised personal training programme – Pass required

The average student completes the online personal trainer course in 8 weeks. But as there are no deadlines you will be able to study at your own pace. This level of flexibility makes it ideal for those with existing commitments to work around, such as employment, childcare or university studies.

Online students will learn via our award-nominated E-learning platform where you will study modules via videos, online lectures, quizzes and so much more.

But just because you’re studying independently does not mean you’re entirely alone. Throughout your learning experience, you’ll be supported by OriGym’s expert tutors who’ll provide advice and guidance on course materials 7-days a week, evening included. Our team can be reached via phone, email or live chat.

We’re proud of our students and what they can achieve, that’s why we provide all OriGym alumni with an extensive, ongoing career support package.

    “Leaving behind my 9-5 corporate job was a scary decision, but deep down, I always knew I wanted to make a real difference in people’s lives. Helping others feel healthier, happier and more confident has always been my goal and I’m so excited to be able to pursue it full-time! Fitness isn’t just a hobby for me; it’s my passion. I can’t wait to start this journey; helping people make a positive change. I know from my own experience how much of an impact exercise can have on your physical and mental health, and so I have plans to start my own 1-to-1 coaching business, offering classes and building a community so that others can experience this too.”
