Reply With QuoteTrainers are not always right, and most I have found are incompitent. I mean, why would you hire a PT that looks like shit? I say if you have time help them out, if not then dont.

What Do You Do......
I've noticed that more and more people are asking me
questions in regards to improve their bodily physique.
Generally, I get questions from members I know
from the gym. But, I've noticed I'm getting questions
from other members I don't know in the gym.
Now, I don't mind giving a tip here and there. But,
some of them expect me to know the answer to
every question.
This is highly unlikely, considering I'm trying to
figure it out myself.
I generally tell them to ask
a trainer, for I don't know. But, after they ask
the trainer, and, the trainer tells them what to
do, they ask me if the trainer is right
I'm like, Dude. He/She IS the Trainer. They
are licensed. They know what to do to acomplish
your goals.
I think many of the members assume because I
look better than the majority of the Trainers there
I would know better.
What would you do in this situation?
Thanks!

Well, here is where the problem begins...........
Seeing that I know what works for me, I can't say it
would work for them. I would be playing Pot Luck,
and, if they get hurt during the process............
Do you think this is a sign for me to become a personal
trainer?
Go through whatever process is needed to become
licensed?
I'm getting ruffly 3 people on a daily basis asking me
questions. I've even had one say, "How much you
charge to train people". And, when I say I wouldn't
know how to train somebody, they get pissed off.....
Thanks For Your Input

Everyone is different, and some respond well to certian methods, and some dont. If you give advice and someone responds well, then im sure they will thank you. If they dont, then how do you know they were doing the movement proper? What if they dont eat right? What if their not consistant? Basically make it their fault LOL im j/k But seriously if you wanna help then do it. If they get hurt, thats a risk they take lifting weights. Not your fault.
It depends, is that what you want to do? If it is, and you look good, I bet you will get more clients. Plus you have the benefit of a job you love, free gym, and the support you need if you like to BB.P-side Inc.

Thanks Dude.
I think may just investigate the procedures on becoming a
trainer. I mean, like, for every member that ask me a question
could be a potential client ($$$$)
