Hi Butterfly!
Good to talk to you again! I thought you were still ripped at me for almost screwing your legs challenge thread.
Let me ask something. Are you doing OK tonight? Your not your usual self??
So, I saw my friend who will be competing in Dallas. She won the Overall Souther States in Fitness so we'll see how she fairs in getting her procard in Dallas.
See, I may be a post whore but not like a one liner, like Bigss!
PS. Thank you for your well wishes with my new female clients.

Wow! That's great about her winning!!! Got to be a good feeling. Fade and I are still planning to make it up to Dallas for that comp. Do you know the exact dates??? It'll be so much fun getting to me you guys in person.
I'm fine, thanks for asking.
BTW, I know what you mean about those one-liners...

OK. Back to Robin!
Today she called me and wanted to take a thermagenic liquid like ABB's Speed Stack or Worldwide Nutrition's S25. So I sighed and told her to consult with her doctor and use at her own discretion! Great. She calls me back at the Doctor's office and he cleared the Bill allowing to take those drinks upon specific recommendations and dosage. So she calls and exuberantly says, "which one is better?"
I told her a place where she can get the drinks for practically $1.65 bottle! (the gyms charge $2.75) Hell of a deal, huh?
No WORKOUT TODAY (Rest Day)

Another successful day with her diet! She has supposedly dropped 3 lbs. last week.
Remember, last week was mainly cardio with an introduction to weight training! I'm dying to see next weeks results!!!
TOMORROW WILL BE THE MEASUREMENTS DAY! Ya-hoo!

I just got a call from a guy friend ( I previously trained) saying that he got a call from Robin and she was bitching about her lunges and how hard they were. 
So I called her just a few minutes ago and asked her if she liked legs day yesterday. She yelled at me and said, "why can't we start with lunges next time bc/ their so hard!!" So, I gave her the explanantion and she didn't seem to want to buy it. So I sit here wondering if I should be a real smart ass and make her lunge first and do that workout as shown above, in reverse. Then, we'll see if she's laughing when it comes to leg press!!! Keep in mind, I only did 1 set of lunges (a very long distance) but a set of 4!!!
Today, I'm going to count the steps that one does when lunging that particular distance!

Today is back day!
She seems very strong -- especially the shoulders. When I had a trainer, I didn't complain that much. All I mainly said was... "so soon, can't we wait a few more seconds" heh.. David, make her suffer!

david
I just did my legs and I counted the steps of the walking lunges.
64!!! (this is one set!!!)
I usually do 2 to 3 sets! This is freakin' awesome!!!!

Today she told me that she felt "nothing" the next day in her shoulders.
So, today, I put her on the military press and used the same weight 95 lbs. and she only put it up for 6 times. I asked her, "what's the matter, are you all of a sudden weak?" She replies, "no, I don't know WTF is wrong!" Then I told her the science behind muscle recuperation and recovery. She wasn't laughing!

With this being my last week with Robin until the middle of October, my training with her is coming to a conclusion.
Pretty much I have her take all that was given to her (typed out workouts and information) Go through the next week and half where she picks what to do on her Weight days while I monitor her, adjust her postions etc.
It has been very interesting and she has progressed well for the last 3 weeks!
Today was shoulder's day and was not a very good workout. She told me that after her workout she gave blood in the morning! REAL SMART!!!!!!
Anyhooz, from time to time, I will relate her measurements in two days and when I get back from Kingdom Come, I will relate any good news!
Till then, ta- ta!

Today was my laugh day because Robin's head started swelling!
As I introduce her new moves for her ab workout and making smart comments how the new move works her abs more better than the other... to the point saying that I was not working them at all!
Boy, I gave her tongue lashing and told her since the old moves were so damn easy, to lets get back to those moves!
I did it this time not allowing her to cheat whatsoever. She started crying and I asked her why is she crying? She states bc/ it hurts......
So, today, I even went to advanced mode to show her what to really expect and again, she started crying!
Hmmn. Lesson to be learned! The manager of the gym came over and punched me in the arm and said, "Damn, your teaching her well and keeping her level headed..."

BITCH DAY
Hey Earwax!
Here is my report!
Today, 20 mins before I left I kept reminding myself how she bitched about lunges and how she wanted to do them first!
Well, be careful what you wish for!
20 mins of warm up cardio
210 lunges!
60 or more per set!
1st set- no weight
2nd set- 15 lbs. DB
3rd set- 20 lbs. DB
4th set- no weights (stepping out at an angle)
5th set (32 steps only) no weight, step out at an angle (completing each step with a ham curl!)
** Crying....**
Hack Squats
1st set/45 lbs./ 15 reps
2nd set/115 lbs. 7 reps
3rd set/95 lbs/7 reps
4th set/60 lbs/ to complete failure
Leg extensions
3 sets (pause reps at the top for the last 3 reps)
Leg press
1 set/205 lbs./12 reps
2nd set/225 lbs./12 reps
One legged leg press
1st set/115 lbs/7 reps
2nd set/95 lbs/7 reps
3rd set/45 lbs./20 reps
4th set- SAME
*** I did this workout out of sequence and in reverse order because Robbin was highly bitching about lunges. Well, she SCREAMED at me last week asking why we didn't do lunges first. Well, after today she now prefers it back the other way. Hmmn... I do say and I re-explained the logic to her.
So she bought me dinner.

Thanx NG!
Well, I try not to be too rough on her or clients but I still try to impose a few rules when clients get out of hand!
1) Concentrate
2) Effort
3) No arguing!
I knew what I was getting into when I accepted her but it's only short term and I wanted her to stay motivated, understand why she's in the gym and to learn the correct form and do it right the first time.
It only can get "Better" with her from here on out!
I was very fortunate to get a client that is willing and able to go 6 times a week!

Wow...six nights a week...you're making some good coin there as well as being able to kick someone's butt. I get sick of training people once or twice a week because usually for the rest of the week they use the hard workouts as an excuse to take time off. Most people can't afford a couple hundred $$ per week for intense training though.
Yeah how can she afford 6 days a week? When I was going, they charged $40 for 1 hour. I went 4 days a week and they gave me 1 day free since I was a poor student.

As privileged as I may seem this is short term (6 days a week) deal for Robbin. 4 weeks of 6 days training. She will continue this regmine after 4 weeks, without me!
However, when I get back, I will probably allow her to use my services, for whenever she needs it, ONLY.
It's simple because I train people to when they have enough knowledge they can go on and do it themselves because technically, I truly believe the continuance of hiring/needing a trainer for every session is a waste of money to an extent. (Unless their training for a competition which is not in my persona) (I usually shuffle them off to my friend's that are NPC, IFBB pro's etc.)
Why I do this it may not make any sense (financial loses) but my clients will give me more clients.
I have a person from W. Palm Bch that wants me to drive 1 hour to and 1 hour back to train her. This will start in 5 weeks.
I have another gentleman who wants me to train him and I have declined his offer due to the fact I'm going away.
Another former client wants me to train her mother (oh brother!?) in which I may decline.
You see here ladies and gents, Personal Training is not my actual profession as I am in school but it IS a good money maker!
I train people and I train them hard to the point I want them to make Fitness (whatever it may be) an everyday life and love. I would like them to transfer the knowledge I gave them to give to their friend's and family.
This is why I treat BB/Fitness seriously bc/ it's a passion! Either you love being there or you hate it!

Crash,
This is not a post whore thread so do NOT mess this up!!!
This is not a post whore thread so do NOT mess this up!!!
Oh yeah, when I started I had no idea how to lift weights until my trainer helped me. I secretly was taking notes. Then after a few months I went and did it myself and never stopped. My form may not be the best, but I am getting some results. I'm still learning as I go.
I thought about getting my Physical Training certificate (one of those... not sure which one) But I feel that I have yet much to learn before I can really help people. I just know some of the basics. I ask people all the time in the gym if they can show me how to use cables and so forth. People can be pretty nice when someone wants to learn.
