ok so what the f__k !

[Ongeau]

ok so what the **** eh!

I go to the Athletic Club here in town and we have these kids they call "personal trainers" firstly a couple of them need to start using the gym they work at in the first place, and start looking like they belong. Then there are these three guys who I swear are having a competition to see who can get the newbies to do the weirdest things. The other day one of them had an older lady, (no spring chicken) wearing a weighted vest and pushing a floor mat with her hands around the gym floor. while the other one had a forty something lady strapped into the squat rack with ****ing bungie cords on her limbs, making her kick and punch and kick and punch. ok so this is how you get people involved ,in fitness? embaress them, everyone in the place is looking at them like they're fools. I once said to this lady who was questioning this kids methodolgies, "look you don't have to follow what this kid is telling you, who else do you see in here trying to balance on a half ball like the ****ing Karate Kid". right after that she simply told him lets do something else. there's all this great equipment here and you have me doing stupid shit.

Anyway I said it, and to all you personal trainers who do stupid shit like this, grow up, dumb ass! these people are trying to feel good about themselves and don't need to feel any more embaressed or ostresized. Most of these people don't like being in front of a public forum and your throwing them out there, and that's not going to make them want to keep going to the gym. This will not create sustainability in the fitness industry.

Peace.

Yep,some of these trainers make me shake my head. If the clients want a bootcamp/martial arts type of training, they'd sign up for the class. Its a hell of a way to drive away people.

They hire shitty trainers, and charge way too much. I wouldn't waste my time or money in that place. Regardless of location, it's not a gym, not even close.

I agree it's more like a social club, but they do have all the best equipment and the women at the club are unbelievable.

[warlock]

These "trainers" are:
1) incompetent as they ask people to do stuff that they don't ave the proper orthopedic profile or motor skills to perform
2) pure and plain bored they just don't want to have a client performing the exercise that is best for him but a exercise that keep the trainer awake.

the best is this guy that is an ex-football player asking a client that has a hunch back and wearing flat Pumas to jump backwards holding a medicine balll.

The client not just is thick like a broom stick and is trying to bulk but his knees knock in every time he jumps.

Precious...

You would be surprised how many people get upset if you DON'T train them on a bosu ball. It's unreal. They pay me to train them and then make suggestions on what I should do.

I had a client that tried this once, my question was: "Who here is the fitness professional?"

Yeah, I think I am going to have to cut a couple of clients loose.

[Ongeau]

If they are asking to do something that doesn't make sense then they are making themselves and you look stupid, cut bait and get out!

[Shortdave]

oh I don't let them do it, I mean I can design a crappy workout around a bosu ball and if they want to pay me 75 an hour I will do it for them, but I don't let them argue with me

Ongeau: I completely here ya... I lived in Brantford until almost a year ago, moved to KIitchener, and heard lots about the Athletic Club... I even went there once to check it out, but they hound ya too much when ur there to sign up, didn't even get to really see what i was lookin' at.... Totally a social club, also lots of hot chicks though. lol

I was a member at Bodyline Fitnes, great family run gym, great rates, great (although a little older) equipment, tanning available there too... I loved that gym, been to 3 different ones in K-W/Cambridge, and none compare... I f you wanna check it out, go talk to Tony or Deb there... If you want a referance, i'll even give ya my real name...

Anyways, take care and try not to kill any PTs....

Hey thanks.

Except I've know Tony and Deb. since before they were T&D lol I went to the original Bodyline Tony had above the factory when Athena worked there. If your familiar she had a store called Muscle & Curves. that was over ten years ago now.

Oh ya Park and Racquet is closing. See my post in the classifieds. what gym do you go to in Cambridge? I work in Cambridge and travel back and forth. thought I might join one close to work and do some lunch hour training.

Wtf lol. Funny bro.

[spitfire]

probably better to do this in either the post whore thread or the change a letter. If people will start doing this in every thread I don't think it'll go well.

[Ongeau]

I know guys. I just thought I'd throw out what is going to happen . that's why I stopped after 10 posts.

I've seen it elsewhere. either way I don't have any pics to post, so it doesn't matter. I was really bored last night.
