I think it would depend if the employee is certified (CPT? - a little help here JU).

Pool boys prolly get minimum wage, if that's what you're looking to apply for.

ya think?


My fitness center has probably a half-dozen "management" type staff who prolly make that much, but then everyone else isn't all that much above minimum wage.
I've always equated gym wages with being kinda sucky.

M&M's

I would think a gym like Golds would be higher than minimum wage. May depend on your postion too. At my gym I pay minimum wage which is currently $6.50 hr. I also give you free membership and unlimited tanning, plus a key and rights to use the gym 24/7.

Being a small town gym/small business I also have several people who work for membership. About 7 hours a month for single membership or 10-12 for a family membership. Either of these includes the tanning for the employee but not the entire family.

Everyone who works at the gym except me has the same title....Fitness Associate. I am the CEO/ Trainer/Workout Nazi. I pay myself minimum wage also. Realz. Cool Life is good indeed. Mr. Green
