Today, whether you're changing the type of exercises or classes you're offering or expanding into new ways to reach people in gyms, outdoors, digitally, or online, you need to make sure that your fitness business is ready. Philadelphia Insurance Companies (PHLY) can help you get there with a quick, affordable coverage that protects you from liability while you're training clients.
Why Personal Trainers Should Have Liability Insurance
As a personal trainer, you have the knowledge to instruct your clients to help them get into shape and improve their health. But unfortunately, accidents happen even with the best planning, knowledge, and intention.
The National Safety Council (NSC) recently reported that exercise, with and without equipment, accounted for 468,000 injuries in a year, the most of any category of sports and recreation. A general liability policy can protect you from claims resulting from bodily injury or damage that could occur despite precaution.
Dropping a weight despite lifting with a spotter, slipping on water and twisting an ankle, unintentionally over-working someone with an unknown, underlying health condition-these are just some of the accidental injuries that could happen.
Along with the personal claim protection from the unexpected, you will want a general liability policy because:
You may be asked to show clients or gym owners that you have coverage in place
It shows a level of professionalism in how you run your training business
It can give you peace of mind
A general liability policy is a practical solution for your business risk. With more than 20 years of experience insuring fitness and wellness businesses, many trainers trust PHLY to provide their coverage. And there are five solid reasons why you can, too.
