How did you find your path to personal trainers field?<\/h2>\n<p>It all started in my first professional volleyball team, when I was 16 years old (2002). We had a really good strength coach back then, and funny enough I always cared much more about the physical training than the volleyball training itself. I knew I wanted to work with training somehow, if possible in sports performance. Then in 2004 I worked with another great strength coach who was a Judo fighter, having been in 2 Olympic Games, and his passion for the work plus his personal approach to all athletes made me realise I could work with high performance but still have a very intimate touch with people. And that\u2019s basically when I decided to go into this field once and for all. I started my studies back in 2008, which is when I got my very first certificate (nowadays I have over 20 from 3 different countries), but as I was still a professional volleyball player, I was working with trainings mainly during my vacations from the season. I only started working with personal trainings full time when I came to Estonia in 2013. Personal training became a natural path, since I\u2019m very perfectionist in everything I do, so having more time to work closely with one person only definitely suits my personality better, and it allows me to implement all techniques and mindset I learned from high performance into that person\u2019s life. Everybody can perform better, it\u2019s all about careful planning and hard work with consistency.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-120995\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfitness.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/bryanrfarani-16394013064590-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"487\" height=\"365\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>2. The best schedule for a personal trainer-how do you manage everything in your work?<\/h2>\n<p>One of the greatest assets of being a PT is that we make our own schedule. So I make sure I can work as much as possible while still having time to do my own training (which is not negotiable under any circumstance), have time for my girlfriend, dogs (Yes, dogS. I have 3, and they are my world :D), my education (I try to read at least one new scientific article or finish a book every day. Usually I do the reading while doing my cardio after training), plus my other things, like creating content online for my website, Instagram and Youtube channel.<\/p>\n<p>Usually I\u2019ll do all that during weekends, together with planning the new training routines for the upcoming weeks. I prefer to start my days as early as possible (most days you can see me 6:30 am in the gym). That\u2019s a way I can fit more personal trainings in my schedule, and also finish my day a bit earlier (sometimes), so I have time for all the other things going on. Luckily I\u2019m used to waking up very early. Back in the volleyball player days I was a 7 am already in the volleyball court training hard with my teammates, so being in the gym 6:30 to train other is not an issue at all.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Your hobbies?<\/h2>\n<p>My main hobby is music. I play guitar, both electric and acoustic. That\u2019s a passion I always nurtured without any deeper explanation, since nobody in my family is involved with music. From a very early age I wanted to learn an instrument, but my parents never bought me one, for financial reasons and also because in Brazil the vast majority of people doesn\u2019t really have a musical culture in their families. Usually our musicians will be born from families of ohter musicians and keep passing on the legacy. Back in 2009 I saved some money and bought myself an acoustic guitar (the cheapest one I found) and started learning on my own. After 10 years already playing, I finally had the chance to hire a teacher, Brad Jurjens, who took me to a whole new level and now I\u2019m working on my 2nd song already (the first one is uploaded in my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/bryanfarani\">YouTube channel<\/a> Bryan Farani, for those curious to watch \ud83d\ude42 )<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-120992\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfitness.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/20211207_104419-1-scaled-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"434\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u25fc\ufe0f Bryan Romano Farani:<\/strong> <em>&#8220;Hard work and self discipline: the key to success!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u25fc\ufe0f Clubs:<\/strong> MyFitness \u00dclemiste and MyFitness Mustam\u00e4e<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u25fc\ufe0f Contact: <\/strong>+372 5885 3305 and <a href=\"mailto:bryanromano.farani@myfitness.ee\">bryanromano.farani@myfitness.ee<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u25fc\ufe0f Instagram:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bryanrfarani\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bryanrfarani\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It all started in my first professional volleyball team, when I was 16 years old (2002).
