    Trainers

    Let me be serious for only once. You will see no knucklehead choice options on this one!

    I have been up and down the east coast and been to many different gyms in my lifetime. When I've talked to some of them, they all seem to have their own idea's and innovative idea's and training techniques. I just wondered who you'd pick.

    Let me hear your opinion!

    I would choose the trainer who has the knowledge and proven credentials over some dumb ass trainer with a good body. The dumb ass may know what works for him but may have no clue how to help you reach your potential. This reminds me of a jackass trainer that works at my gym. When he's working with his clients, he allows them to exercise with horrible form. What kind of trainer doesn't teach his clients proper form? What a dumb fuck....... I think I'll kick him in his vagina next time I see him.
    Think about it, an NFL coach doesn't have the skills, strength, and agility as his players, but he has a shit load of knowledge.

    Theres one dude at my gym that sits there on a goddamn cell phone while his clients workout. Ill be goddamned if Im gonna pay all that loot for some Knig to talk on the phone while im training. Fat ladies and kids are easy to take advantage of though i guess. Whatever happened to all the hardcore gyms my dad would take me to when I was a kid. Theres like 5 left in the world.

    Yeah, those hardcore gyms seem like they're hard to come by now.

    A trainer needs to have the knowledge and good certifications more than an impressive body.

    I could've tacked onto Choice 1 - whose has excessive body fat around his/her belly an no inch of muscle definition from head to toe. Then, I wonder how many would still stick with option 1!!!

    It isnt hard to acquire an ISSA certification online. Any dunce can become certified.

    But i believe a trainer should be knowledgeable and physically fit.

    Its like a fat stripper. She might know how to spin around on the pole but i aint paying my money to see that shit.

    Or a super hot stripper who falls off the pole and farts as shes giving you a lapdance.

    There HAS to be a happy medium.

    Very True. I was waiting for someone to say that about a trainer. In the more prissy style gyms or gyms in northeast/small towns... you'd be very surprised to see who is trainer, an aerobic teacher, etc. In one of the South Florida gyms, the step class teacher, is 60 years old and I purposely went in it to see if I past wrong judgement. Guess what? I didn't and she sucked!

    Now........... as for the stripper who farts? Has this happened to you!??!?! LOL!!

    I agree. Knowledge is paramount however, one would be inclined to call into question a trainer's dedication to his or her clients when they themselves do not have the drive and ambition to put their credentialed knowledge into practice. Not very motivating or confidence inspiring.
