Understanding Scope of Practice, and How to Handle Fitness Misinformation | ETP #44

What are trainers actually allowed to do and not do? In this episode of the Elite Trainer Academy Podcast brought to you by Mind Pump, we break down scope of practice for personal trainers. From handling client pain and injuries to nutrition coaching, we talk about the lines you should never cross and how staying in your lane actually makes you more valuable as a coach. We also tackle the niche conversation. Why new trainers shouldn't pick a niche too early, how to build a full client book first, and the importance of getting reps with different client types before specializing. Finally, we address the elephant in the room social media. How to help your clients navigate unrealistic fitness content, curate their feeds, and focus on what actually works instead of chasing every new trend.
