Large market for this book: the top ten UK gym chains employ around 7,000 personal trainers; there are at least as many independent personal trainers not associated with a specific gym; and small independent gyms, leisure centres and so on also employ a substantial number of personal trainers. Suitable as an introductory guide for new trainers and a reference manual for established trainers.
