The personal training industry is rapidly changing and growing, with the industry having seen a growth of more than 50% from 2012 to 2021. This equates to an annualised 5.4% increase in industry revenue from 2016 to 2021 (source: Training Academy). 

The industry is set to continue to grow, with job growth in the personal training industry expected to increase by 39% by 2030 (source: My PT Hub). So it’s true - the industry is booming! 

People are always looking for personal trainers! 

Research by Statista has found that in 2011, there were just over 15 thousand personal trainers in the UK, a figure which rose to over 23 thousand by 2020. Taking into account that the pandemic had repercussions on this figure, the industry is forecast to recover and reach more than 25 thousand establishments in 2022 and beyond! 

If people aren’t after a personal trainer to keep them motivated, disciplined and consistent in their fitness habits throughout the year, there are always events that people may look to train towards specifically.
