FabSwingers.com forum: The Lion vs. Personal Trainers

By (user no longer on site) OP

Here is a topic that has been on The lions mind for a long time and its to do with so called " personal trainers"

lion has observed their methods for a long time and has kept his displeasure to himself

however enough is enough and lion is calling you so called trainers out..

you take peoples money on promising them changes and improvements with the exact same routine and making them spend countless euros on silly supplements...

not once has The Lion followed or listened to a trainer as he creates his own workouts and uses his mind to create obstacles ...Lion is out in the great outdoors running with schoolbag full of rocks pushing it to the limit...

so people of fab/ lions fans ..Lion urges you to keep your money use your imagination and train like lion old school free and always in the third person narration x

People who cannot motivate themselves or are "obligers" work better when they feel accountable to others.

Horses for courses.

Do you also encourage people to self medicate? Take out their own teeth? Cut their own hair? Or is it just PTs you have a gripe against.

I like The Lion's thought process might do the stones in a Schoolbag or while running, if it helps get ya fitter quicker or lose weight quicker I'm all for it.

Kitty thinks that lion has been observing the wrong kind of personal trainers. Kittys personal trainer gets cross when kitty doesn't eat enough meat and fish and carbs,cos kitty is a lover of rice and veg,and kittys trainer says no rice for kitty.

Kittys trainer also uses three different programs simultaneously during a single week and changes these programs every four weeks to keep kitty in her toes.

Kittys trainer is the cream of the crop and advises regular sexercise to keep kitty purring

You make some good points, see far too many people paying a fortune and dont see any results. The trainers yak away to them between sets ffs, where's the intensity?!

A trainer can only do so much, nobody is gonna see amazing results if they can't learn to put down their fork or at least put the right things on the fork. It's the eating right part that gets me in a muddle sometimes

Most PT's I have seen in the last couple of years have done a course over a few weekends and now think that they invented training. some have only done a few bodybuilding or powerlifting comps and use that as their way to get money from people by giving programmes they were handed and claiming that they wrote it
