Tell me about recovery time. Also, I avoid weights because I dont want to get all bulky and lose flexibility. Should I just stick to cardio and forget the lifting?

Want to know about the hot mommies you train. One of the trainers at my gym has as many as 8 or 10 of them training at a time. I think he is single and wonder just how good he has it. He is getting them into great shape...what a job.

I would say that your diet is the majority of what controls your weight. Your Training program is the majority of what contributes to your fitness. If weight loss is their only goal I refer them to a nutritionist. |

How come I can't lose weight?
I've drastically cut back fast food, eliminated soda, started eating more turkey, reduced the amount that I eat, walk at least 1.5 miles every night and work out with weights at least 3 times per week. I recently discovered that in the 90 days between Dr's visits I have gained 2 pounds.

Sometimes genetic background or patholgy can play a part, but usually it comes down to diet. Any human who is in a calorie deficit will lose weight. But to do it healthfully it's important to have a professional assess your actual needs, and if it is hard for you to lose weight you need to STICK to it down to the gram. A handful of almonds can add hundreds of calories to your daily intake, so it's easy to see how one day you could be in a deficit and the next in a surplus. This is not condusive to losing weight steadily. |

Whoa. Most timely thread ever, and thanks for starting it.
I've gone through a lot of big changes in my life over the last years, one of the most important being to completely turn my physical fitness around, lose a ton of weight and embrace the healthy lifestyle that I wish I could go back and smack my younger self for not doing 20 years ago. Over the course of this physical re-awakening, I've started to accept the fact that I have absolutely zero interest in spending the rest of my life stuck behind a computer in a dark dingy office producing bullshit that doesn't matter and I want to shift into a physically active career … So, I guess the big question is … I'm 38 years old. Am I completely deluding myself into thinking that I could get into a field like the one you're in and make a solid career out of it for the rest of my useful employment life? |

Hax OK this is a good one as I think this is widely misunderstood. I have a Liberal Arts Degree. You can currently call yourself a "Trainer" with practically nothing to back it up. It is a BIG problem IMHO. There are different Certifying bodies out there and their rules are different for each as to when/how much continuing education you need to do. It seems nowadays that anyone who wants to make some extra money puts out a "Certification". So for those that might be interested in getting certed or want to know if their trainer is legit, I suggest looking for a NASM, ACSM, ACE,NSCA, NSCA-CSCS as their "Base" and consider the others as "specialties" or supplements to their basic training knowledge. I've been working for 10 years as a Trainer or Trainer Manager, and have "certed" through ACE/APEX/NASM/USAW and I'm a EMT. With all this being said, I have met, interviewed or worked with guys/gals that were much more specifically educated than me such as BA in sports science or exercise physiology, and they couldn't train their way out of a bag. Then others still that should be writing books on how to train, but these people are the exception NOT the rule. |

No, I truly believe that you can do it if you can SEE it. Now as far as being a TRAINER for the rest of your life.....It depends on what your annual income needs to be. If you include possibilities like Owning a Gym or other fitness related facility, writing fitness articles/books, talks/lectures etc. you can make a fine living. |

Do you find your life rewarding, and that you are living it?
I've seen a lot of people who I'm guessing look like you, out and about. I don't think I could stand to debate whether or not I could have a beer if I'm hanging out with friends because it's totally going to throw me off my game. Same goes for things like debating on whether or not I can have the breaded chicken breast because it has too many carbs. Can you make those douchebag roid users stop screaming everytime they lift a weight? Or better yet, point out to everyone in the gym that the dudes who look like the hulk are, in fact, using and that their penis and junk are smaller than the average man's pinky (do this especially in front of the women).

Internet advice is crap. You have no idea what these people would be looking at health wise, you are doing any sort of questionaire anything. IF you want to share advice hit the fitness forum, and help out there. And if you want some background from me I am an EXSS (exercise sport science) BS from Oregon State, Certified by ACSM, NSCA with my CSCS. and currently one of the strength and conditioning coaches at OSU and HATE THIS INTERNET BULLSHIT. Thanks for sharing your hatred of INTERNET BULLSHIT (on the Internet). I think this is more in the general [and popular GD] category of "Ask someone in this field dumb questions about his field" than him trolling for Olympic athlete clients in GD. Not what I meant. Guess I missunderstood his motives. If its the fact people are asking him what its like to work in a gym, and be a personal trainer, I was just stating that if he wants to give EX advice to move it. and thanks for your moderating of me jesus without you the GD would be shit I forget the GD is the GD sometimes. I'm here to help. I thought you came into the thread a little heavy, so I cracked on you. But hey, didn't mean to ruffle your feathers; carry on. The forums all have some cross-talk of topic. If the mods feel this one is misfiled, I imagine they'll be on it shortly. I'm not in it for fitness advice, but am curious about the "life of a trainer" maybe. |

Front Squat vs Back Squat. Which do you prefer and why? I love them both like they were my children The Front, Back, and Overhead Squat as well as the Deadlift are the "Bread and Butter" of Functional Movement, and IMO anyone who is serious about exercise will get professional instruction in these lifts.
Do you teach squat as ass to grass, or thighs parallel to the floor? And why? |
