SATS, Elixia are the biggest chains here, but there are many more.
You can use nav.no and type "treningssenter" or "personal trener". I had a English-speaking personal trainer once, so it should be fine. Those centers will always prefer someone who can speak Norwegian, but some might have a shortage of applicants.
