How were the Training Packages and Pricing Decided?
All training options and package pricing are based on fitness industry compensation research and a negotiated discount for AARP members. The fees were based on survey data collected by IDEA, the International Health Racquet and Sports Club Association (IHRSA) and the Medical Fitness Association (MFA) and American Sports Data. Both front line pricing for personal training sessions and personal training compensation were analyzed by region to determine the rates. Pricing and package options have been set and are non-negotiable; therefore, we recognize that not all ACE trainers will be interested in, or able to take advantage of the program. This is particularly true for those that are in affluent, major metropolitan areas where training fees can, and often do, exceed industry averages – sometimes significantly. Each of our professionals will have to evaluate the business opportunity and make an individual determination if the program is the right fit for them.
