About PTP
Personal Training Professionals is a leading health and fitness organization providing highly-effective, personal health training services since 1998. PTP goes beyond a typical health club; it is a state-of-the-art facility that provides all the services offered by a large health club in a personal, highly professional atmosphere - just as our name states!

At the core of our approach is the passionate belief that individualized exercise programs promote long-term improvements in health and fitness. Our custom-tailored programs deliver the motivation, proper instruction, and consistency that constitute a successful health and fitness regimen.

Industry Overview
Although the commercial diet industry boasts enormous yearly profits, it has a failure rate of 80 to 95% over a five-year period. And, it's estimated that an astonishing 80% of home exercise equipment is not used after the first year. More and more people are turning to meaningful, individualized programs designed to foster genuine progress. Among the myriad of benefits afforded by personal trainers are learning how to use equipment properly; how to exercise using the appropriate form and technique; and how to set realistic goals. Fitness clubs are already seeing a boost in business as they add personal trainers. In fact, fitness trainers are listed as the 11th fastest growing occupation for 2002-2012. It's predicted that personal trainers will see more of a demand, as Americans become increasingly health-conscious.
