dc.description.abstract	The purpose of this study is to examine how personal trainers perceive their body. My research questions are the following: How does the structure or the focus of the organization affect the trainer's perception of their bodies; how does gender, age, years of employment, clientele, focus of the organization etc. affect these trainers; do these trainers internalize external cues of maintaining a certain body type, and how does that affect them?	eng
