Answer

Depends on your reputation. I use a personal trainer.  Around DC, the good ones can charge several hundred an hour (i.e they are training pro athletes and pageant queens - I even know a guy who charges $1k an hour but he is VERY specialty)- but they've built up to that. Usually people do this part time because it's not enough alone. Also, it's not great money if you work through a gym. But you have to start somewhere.
