Personal trainers

I wouldn't waste the money...i watch trainers train people and laugh at how much better I'd be able to train their client.

They tell you to do something and watch, rarely will they actually cratique(?) your every move and annoy the shit out of you until its perfect. Unless you find a lvl 5 trainer who is HIGHLY educated i wouldn't...but then on the other hand your looking at $100+ an hour. So all in all, I still wouldn't.

Imagine what you could buy with the amount 10 training sessions will cost you!

Yep. Saw a guy today in the gym...a "Trainer" that had a client at least 60 doing a dead lift type movement with the bar. Back looked like a rainbow.

on the subject of this another thing about personal trainers thats always made me laugh is that some also teach "boxercise","womens kickboxing" and "body combat" without having the slightest clue about even the basics of boxing or and form of combat.
just a way of ripping off overweight middle aged women and the occasional retarded bloke who think they will learn how to fight as well as lose weight.

Just because someone is in shape or hell, ripped to shreds and own a gym, doesn't mean they are good trainers. 99% of them suck. Period. They think that standing by you and counting your reps and maybe raising their voice is training, or making someone do cardio for an hour, putting you in machines and doing tricep kickbacks and saying "feel that burn?" is training. ...

With that being said, maybe you found that 1%. Good luck.

Amen to that!
