Physician Coach is growing fast! We are looking for a Head Coach to lead our Functional Fitness Classes with opportunity for 1:1 Coaching, Athlete Programming and Metabolic Services.

Each class is programmed using Functional Fitness methodology with modifications provided by a Sports Medicine Physician for added prehab and exercise physiology. 1:1 coaching clients are often referred from our Sports Medicine Physician, rehabbing from injury or limitation. It is recommended applicants for this position have experience with Functional Fitness and exercise physiology, while also conducting these practices in their personal life.
ABOUT US:
Physician Coach is founded and ran by a Sports Medicine/Family Medicine Physician and Naturopathic Physician who are focused on using the power of exercise physiology, functional medicine, and functional fitness as a means of treating their patients. Physician Coach is also a gym, which is where YOU become vitally important to furthering our mission. We’re not your typical gym, nor your typical doctor’s office, and that means we aren’t looking for a typical coach.
Functional Fitness is an integral part of our treatment methodology. Our doctors have branched out of the standard box of medicine to utilize exercise physiology, prescriptive movement, coaching, and programming for their patients; we are searching for coaches who have the passion, drive, and willingness to branch out of their standard box and into functional medicine, exercise physiology, nutrition, and other avenues in providing the most optimal plan for their clients.
Investing in the education and development of our team members is a #1 priority. We pour into the growth of you individually, and as part of our team.
As a Functional Fitness Coach, your schedule will include both group class instruction and 1-on-1 coaching sessions. You will have the opportunity to grow your individual client list from referrals by our Physicians and group class members looking for individual instruction. Opportunity to program and grow your hours will depend on your experience and motivation to earn more.
WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT:
1. Learn directly from a Sports Medicine Physician about injury evaluation and treatment, regenerative injections, cupping & dry needling, and blood flow restriction, to name a few.
2. Work with a Naturopathic Physician to understand a holistic view of the body through functional medicine, nutrition, comprehensive lab analysis, gut health, effective supplementation, and more!
3. Have the opportunity to get hands-on training with metabolic/VO2 testing and interpretation, making exercise physiology at the forefront of your knowledge as a coach.
4. Gain in-house client referrals for 1:1 coaching, post-injury strengthening, and skills coaching.
5. Support and space to build your own clientele within our incredible facility.
6. Encouragement and stipend to pursue continued education and certification.
