Affiliate Disclosure - Trainer Josh

Effective Date: May 4, 2025
Last Updated: May 4, 2025

At Trainer Josh Fitness, we believe in transparency and honesty — especially when it comes to the products, programs, and services we recommend. That’s why we’re sharing this disclosure, so you understand exactly how affiliate links work on TrainerJosh.com and how they help support the content we create.

What Are Affiliate Links?

Some of the links you’ll find on this site are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission if you click on one and make a purchase — at no additional cost to you.

For example, if we recommend a protein powder, a pair of resistance bands, or a training platform, and you buy through our link, we might receive a referral commission from the seller. These commissions help fund the free content, guides, workouts, and research we provide on this site.

Why You’ll See Affiliate Links Here

We only recommend products and services that:

We’ve personally used or tested, or
Come from brands we trust, and
Align with our mission to help you improve your fitness, nutrition, and overall health.

We value your trust, and we never recommend anything just for a commission. If it’s not something we believe in, it doesn’t get shared. Period.

Examples of Affiliate Relationships

Trainer Josh Fitness may participate in affiliate programs with:

Amazon Services LLC Associates Program
Prograde, BioTrust, Onnit
Fitness and supplement brands
Digital product platforms
Course platforms, tech tools, or wellness partners

We may update this list from time to time as partnerships evolve.

FTC & Legal Compliance

Per the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines and the California Business & Professions Code, we are required to disclose any material connection between us and brands, products, or services we promote.

We do this in two ways:

With this dedicated disclosure page
With clear, in-post disclosures on any page or email that contains affiliate links — always before the link appears, never buried in a footer or hidden in small print

You’ll see language like:

“This post may contain affiliate links. If you purchase through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.”

This ensures full compliance and — more importantly — keeps our relationship with you based on openness and integrity.

Not All Links Are Affiliate Links

While some links may earn us a commission, many do not. We often link to research studies, free tools, nonprofit resources, or brands simply because we believe they’re useful, not because we’re paid to do so.

Your Responsibility

As always, you should do your own research before purchasing any product or service online. Your decision to purchase is voluntary, and you are responsible for your own due diligence.

If you have questions about an affiliate link or partnership, we encourage you to reach out.
