The role
Join the World’s Leading Personal Training Team at UP: Leeds
At Ultimate Performance (UP), our purpose is simple but powerful: to unlock our clients’ potential and transform lives, one person at a time. We achieve this through the world’s most effective personal training system: The UP Method; built on data, science, and an unrelenting commitment to results.
We're now opening our next intake of exceptional Personal Trainers to join our Leeds team.
Who We Are:
Founded in London in 2009, UP has become a global leader in body transformation, delivering laser-focused, results-driven personal training through the UP Method. With 27 private gyms across four continents, from Los Angeles to Sydney, our reputation is built on one thing: outcomes. Clients come to us for smart, science-backed training and tailored nutrition that delivers real, measurable change.
But let’s be clear...We’re not a gym. We don’t compare ourselves to gyms. We’re not in the same lane. Our service and support go far beyond a client's 60-minute session. Our commitment isn’t limited to two or three hours a week, it’s a full-spectrum approach that drives total transformation.
Our Method:
So, what’s the secret sauce?
It’s The UP Method, and it works. What we can tell you is that we focus solely on what drives results. No gimmicks, no distractions. Every trainer plays a key role in delivering life-changing outcomes for our clients, and it’s that standard that sets us apart.
What We Value:
- Results-Driven: You care about what counts.
- Own It: You take full responsibility: wins, failures, everything.
- Passion for Progress: You want to grow, not just tick boxes.
- Supportive & Personalised: You treat every client as an individual.
