A human being is created by nature to be physically active with features that makes them able to survive in the nature. The features that humans have actively used in the past thousands of years to stay alive and survive are now in passive use. People nowadays tend to be passive on the daily basis because the work they do does not usually require physical efforts. People today are aware of healthy lifestyle and they are more active in their leisure time than before. A popular activity is to exercise with a plan and right kind of nutrition to reach their goals. The demand for personal trainers has been a growing trend for the past few years. It looks like the profession is remaining popular also in the future.

The questions for this study are: what is the satisfaction level to personal trainer course and does the given training meet professional needs in practice? What is the employment status among those who work as a personal trainer? What is the amount of weekly working hours as a personal trainer?

Freelancer personal trainers work less than 21 hours per week.
