Annotation: Currently, the number of fitness centers is steadily growing; the country is acquiring a cult of health, which entails the constant appearance of job vacancies in the specialty of a gym instructor. In the conditions of modern competition, workers in the field of physical culture have a need to improve their experience. Based on the Federal State Educational Standards, the professional standards of the coach, as well as on the data of other authors, including foreign ones, and our own professional experience as gym instructors, we concluded that the existing professional development programs do not fully solve the professional tasks that a specialist faces. In the conducted research, the competence model of designing and implementing a training program for gym instructors was theoretically substantiated and experimentally verified, which consisted of block-modular training programs ensuring the productivity of their professional activities. The study involved 2 groups of students, a control and an experimental groups (based on VForme Fitness Clubs in Tula and Novomoskovsk of the Tula region), 15 people each. The levels of knowledge of theoretical and practical training courses were revealed, and the formation of practical skills was tested, which reflects the level of formation of professional competences. As a result of the experiment, the indicators of testing the level of knowledge of the theoretical and practical course of study, as well as testing the level of formation of practical skills in the experimental group turned out to be significantly higher compared with the control group (p < 0.05 for almost all criteria). The authors found that the experimental competence model of designing and implementing a training program for gym instructors has shown effectiveness in the practical activities of trainers, which makes it possible to introduce it into educational institutions for advanced training courses for gym instructors and personal fitness trainers, as well as to review and approve professional standards for these areas of training.
