I noticed an absence of a similar thread on this board, so I thought I would be the first to create it.
This thread is the official venue in which certified personal trainers can discuss important issues that relate to the fitness field; new exercise trends amongst the public, effective fat loss programs, muscle building for the layman, etc. If you are not a certified personal trainer, please do not bother posting in this thread unless you are asking us questions - but for the most part I'd like to keep this an exclusive means of discussing industry sensitive issues amongst qualified fitness professionals.
Also, if you recieved your certification via an entirely online program such as the ISSA, do not bother posting in here. While you may be possess a nationally recognized certification allowing you to work at the local LA Fitness or Bally's, any real fitness professional knows that true exercise science knowledge cannot be tested entirely behind a computer monitor.
I will kick this discussion off: how have you guys been able to maintain the sensitive equilibrium of nutrition in combination with the typical goal related exercise program?

You got one of your certificates or degrees from an online program ::) ::)
You pathetic even more than anyone. you take last place in everything you do. You get fired for being incompetent but you call it laid-off. You take last place in every contest you enter and try to convince everyone the other comptetitors were good enough to go pro. You enter no name contests and still take last. You aren't welcome to enter NPC contests so you enter some off the wall contest. Dude you are the perfect definition of pathetic and delusional. If the writers for Websters Dictionary ever saw you they would immediately order a recall of every dictionary out there and put that photo of you where you can only see your eyes.
I have 2 certifications and a diploma however clients only care about results...not what's hanging on your wall.
In your case your certs don't mean shit. And to top it off clients look at you and laugh there way to another REAL PT. Goodrum do you have any clients that actually pay you. Can't count your butt-buddy Vissy or any of your inbred family. Also, I am pretty sure most of the people that see you wish you were hanging on your wall. Face it Goodrum you try to cut corners with everything you do and it has all failed. Online certs. WOW. What an accomplishment!
Yes, one of my certifications are from an online course....so what?? Doesn't matter what you got hanging on the wall but how well you do in business.
You are truly a sad little fat man aren't you??? I'm not a millionaire but I do okIs this your only job?
You are truly a sad little fat man aren't you??? I'm not a millionaire but I do ok

So you have net sales of about $10,000 to $13,000 out of that gross in 3 months. I have no idea what your overhead is but I would thin low since we all have seen how you live. Yes you are a hugely successful businessman. I thought I heard Trump mention you a few times ::) ::)
Is this your only job?
When you total it all up, it's not that impressive.
Yea, I sure can't compete with all of these 7 figure making Getbiggers that fly around in Lear Jets and have their butlers wipe their asses and fix their supper for them..... ::)

Stop trying to re-direct your own failures by projecting your sarcasm onto others ::) ::)

You need help my friend
Vince tries to do something he loves rather than work in some 9-5 job with a fat boss smacking him over the head. In that regard I have to hand it to him for having guts no matter what his physique looks like. Most dont have the guts to give up material stuff to do what they love myself included.
I do? Why? I'm just speaking the truth.
Maybe if you didn't talk so much shit, you wouldn't get so much flack. ::) ::)
The truth is that you have no idea what you're talking about because you have no education or experience in the actual subject of this thread.....and I do.
Now I have other things to do than to play with a child such as yourself. Till then....
Well, you claimed to be making big money yet you can't even pay back your business partners that you cheated. 2,500 dollars isn't much money for a big time hustler such as yourself is it?????? ::)
Lets face it Keith, you can talk all you want about what you have but nothing really adds up to be honest. The only income I could see is from web design and I'd seriously doubt that everyone is banging down your door to design any, especially with your sub-par skills and outdated graphics that I've seen on Muscle Mafia.
Now stop bothering me because I don't care about you. Go play in the ocean with the other whales or something.
I only had to give up material things for a very short time. Nowadays I can buy what I want but I'm very frugal with my money. I spend it wisely and don't waste it on silly stuff
Its not a job. Its my own business that I started from the ground up in 2001 when I trained people and sold Vitamin Power supplements from the back of my car and at the flea market every weekend.
Nowadays it pays the bills and I don't have to work anymore for any company. Companies hire employees for wholesale price and sell them for retail. They tell you when to work, how much you make, and dictate how you live, and how you pay your bills.
That's why I don't care what anyone says about my business. I'd rather have my freedom than to be someone's slave
noworries, why r u so obssessed with Goodrum?

Thats like saying a Bachelors or a Masters degree "don't mean shit" (to quote your perversion of the english language). In general, I have found that the people who regularly claim that standards of education and qualification do not mean anything are the ones that lack the intellectual or professional competency to obtain said academic certification.

I have 2 certifications and a diploma however clients only care about results...not what's hanging on your wall.If this guy does have certs thats proves they dont mean shit , just take a look at him hahahahaahaha
Which of course is nothing more than a crybaby article from trainers who are upset over not having as much success as trainers who have only been in the business for a very short time.
What they should concentrate on including yourself is simply putting your ego in your pocket and take a hard look at your current business model and not care what someone else is doing down the road.
EliteFTS may raise a few points but the problem is that the whole article is still pointless and without merit. They or anyone else do not have the authority to decide good trainers from bad trainers.

Thanks for proving your lack of comprehension and knowledge of who is successful in the industry is about nil with you. And yes, they do have the authority to analyze who is a bad trainer from a good trainer as do I. For example, If I asked you or this "hugeripped" clown to put together a strength program or even a basic fitness program for a healthy person, I'd be willing to bet you clowns couldn't put together a sound program if your life depended on it.
I must have missed it where you stated what your Master's is in; mine is in Exercise Science.
LOL...who cares? Results count pal. But if it makes a difference to you I came about six months short of my degree......TWENTY SEVEN YEARS AGO, that being said I've had enough continuing education throughout the years that I still keep up on to basically bury you not only in knowledge but the results of my athletes, clients and my business. Quit bragging, show yourself and/or the results of your clients or go away.

Translation: You still justify your failure to obtain any academic credentials after nearly three decades.
You can keep trying to rationalize your lack of real credentials by going on about how certifications and academic credentials dont mean anything, but the fact of the matter is that I am exponentially more qualified as a fitness professional than you are. My master's degree in Exercise Science says so and so does my CSCS certification. Perhaps after you have attended a university of higher learning and earned a diploma in a fitness related field, then I will take you seriously.

What's up with your shitty looking physique then?
What's up with your shitty looking physique then?
What do you mean? He has a "CSCS"....LOL
My physique is right on par with my time spent engaging in regular resistance training. I started lifting weights for health purposes 7-8 years ago, I only started getting into bodybuilding in the last 2-3 years. In my profile picture, I am at about 10 percent bodyfat while still maintaining a solid level of muscularity for someone who has been bodybuilding for such an amount of time. You can see my serratus and abdominals while pulling off a stomach vaccuum without any overhead lighting or shadowing effects. I guarantee you that if you 1) got down to my level of bodyfat and 2) took a picture pulling off a front double biceps with total stomach vaccuum without ANY overhead lighting, I would make you look like a child.
Based on the posts I have read in this thread, you and "Vince Goodrum" appear to be in the exact same category of fraudulent fitness pseudo-professionals, scamming clients out of their money to recieve training from someone whose only credentials involve online certifications. Your credentials are on par with the trainers at your local LA Fitness.
AAaahahahahaha.....who's gimmick are you?

Can't see that tiny distorted picture. Post it again in this thread.
You are obviously not a real person and just trolling for shits and giggles, but i'll play along....
You look like you don't lift weights at all and never have. Low bodyfat, yes. But a total lack of muscularity. You have the body of a 15 year old kid.
After 7-8 years of lifting, and 2-3 years of bodybuilding, you look like shit (if you were a real person, which you obviously are not).
Unable to respond - imagine my shock.
Please address your lack of credentials and the fact that you parade yourself as someone more qualified than a trainer at Bally's when you have the exact same qualifications (or lack thereof).
Hope this helps
Actually, I'm more qualified than you. Put that piece of paper back in your pocket son, you'll get hurt. And BTW, I don't buy into commercial gyms. Who is your target clientele again?
1) I am a "real person."
2) you lack any images of yourself on an online bodybuilding forum which makes me wonder what you are hiding - are you drastically overweight or do you simply not lift weights and choose to hide behind the monicker of a bodybuilder to pass judgement on others as some anger transferrance mechanism?
He's another gimmick Ron let in. This clown doesn't know the difference between a wrist curl and a squat.
HugeRipped I have a set of two questions for you ???
(1) What is the optimal static kinematic state (i.e. angular positions) for performing the bentover barbell row? Please specify in both relative and absolute terms. I prefer radians but degrees are ok too.
(2) How many cocks can you fit in your vagine?
I am unsure if you understand the concept of "irony" since you have already admitted to your academic ignorance but I will go out on a limb and assume that you picked up the comprehension of the abstract noun somewhere in your life (if you need me to reword my response in a more high school graduate level, let me know); it is ironic that someone who lacks any form of credentials besides three "certifications" (i can only guess how many were taken online only) can claim they are more qualified a field that I possess a Master's degree in. Your arrogant attitude toward commercial gyms is unfounded, since you have the exact same pseudo-credentials and blaring lack of education of every other trainer at the local LA Fitness or Bally's. Why should I explain my target clientele to you? Suffice to say that you would not be elligible to interview at my place of work, you lack the academic qualifications.
1. You don't have a clientele thats why you can't give me one. It's not a big deal dude, I don't know you, how come you can't give a target? What type of clients to you deal with?
2. I don't work for anyone but MY CLIENTS. I wouldn't be an employee, that would mean taking a pay cut.
I hate to say anything, but why are you arguing with SkinnyFat and not next door throwing a hump into Sandra B? Chances are she's lookin to get back at that Jesse James loser.

No-one has the authority to judge who is a good personal trainer and who isn't....period. The most successful personal trainers out there just do their jobs and not worry about what every other trainer does. If you're not making the money that you think you should be, then you should change your business model
NewsFlash.
Experts don't "interview" at places of work.... they work for themselves and have people working for them!
BOOOOOOM!
What kind of absurd logic is that? There are plenty of experts relative to their field who are still employees of a greater organization. Chief doctors who run departments in cardiology or oncology, for example, still directly work for and report to a hospital administration hierarchy - does this not make them an expert in their field? My point was, that at my place of work, a MAsters degree in a fitness related field is mandatory to even be considered for employment and thus "The Coach" would not even be eligible to interview with us.

The BEST M.D.'s own their own practice!
I am sure the Coach has no interest in working for an agency or instuition for nickles and dimes when he is pulling in GOOD $$ owing and running his own sports performance training biz.
personal certifications don't mean shit
the only reason to have one is credentials when working with clients...they trust
your guidance more
i am certified in WITS...which i would say is one of the more involved certifications....but i still think it was
a waste of my fucking time...i already know how to write programs for people and have been doing so long
before i ever got certified
your credentials are sub par at best, yet you act as if you are a doctor from some very prestigious school
you are a overcompensator, which looking at your avatar, i understand why
On what factual evidence do you base your statement that the best MD's do not work for hospitals? Please provide patient mortality rates and QOL statistics between the two groups in a given related medical field if you want to be taken seriously.
Based on "The Coach's" complete lack of education and qualifications, one can conclude that he "runs his own business" because he got tired of working at LA Fitness, Bally's or 24 Hour Fitness - since those are the only trainer jobs for which he is qualified. Out of curiousity, why do you feel it is your personal mission to justify his educational shortcomings? I am still amused that when asked if he had a Masters degree he felt the need to tell me that he dropped out within 6 months of graduation, as if that really matters - an obvious sign of regret and shame even after nearly three decades to live with such failure. I wonder if, when applying to work at the local Bally's he tells the hiring manager that he almost got a degree?
Are you trying to compare my Master's in Exercise Science to a personal training certificaiton?

LOL No one in their right mind would work as an employee when they could make more money and play by their own set of rules running their own biz. TO even argue such a thing is outrageous LOL
Who in the hell says " When I grown up I want to work as a sheep for someone else!" ??
Bottom line my small friend, if you were truely an expert you would have private clients paying you and would not have to seek out employment from an institution or agency.
Haha, I've never been an employee of any fitness club in my life. And yes, I WILL compare my training knowledge to your "Masters" degree. You don't seem to get that although it's great to obtain your 'Masters" degree, real knowledge doesn't come until years down the road. You really think just because you get a piece of paper that says "I've passed tests" that automatically makes you an expert? Fuck you've got a lot to learn.
Do me a favor, give an example of program you would recommend for an athlete, say a football player. I'll be waiting for your response.
Almost everybody in the world works for somebody else, most adults are able to grasp that concept.
I cant help but notice you failed to reply with mortality rates and QOL stats in reference to your odd claim about more competent MD's owning private practices. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are working on putting together a statistic composite to assist in arguing your point. Since you are now trying argue that owning one's own business generates more revenue on average, please provide the appropriate factual basis (with citations) to support that theory.
To recapitulate: I will take your odd claims seriously once you can provide any factual evidence to back them. Based on the interesting statements you have made this requires mortality rates and patient QOL statistics for doctors working in a private practice vs doctors working directly for a hospital organization. Also, please provide average annual salaries of doctors who run their own private practice vs chief MD's of a given department in a hospital. Try to keep the medical field the same throughout to avoid compounding variables, thanks in advance.

The wealthiest people in the country and the world work for them selves and own their own biz.
Can you see Steve Jobs showing up for the paycheck? LOLOL!
Here's something pretty factual. The average S&C coach for a D1 school with a masters + a CSCS makes between $85-150K. I have my own business and double that, with successful clientele, athletes (from high school to professional) and celebrities. You make how much? You know how much? How long have you been a trainer for? Who is your clientele (I've asked this before, but like Goodrum you can't answer).
You appear to be struggling to come to terms with the concept of a company and how hierarchical infrastructure works. I am still waiting for those statistics.
Perhaps if you graduated with a degree (maybe you missed statistics in those last 6 months) you would understand the concept of a confounding variable. You are comparing a D1 school coach to one who trains a demographic so wide it includes celebrities and professionals. Do you see the massive discrepancy that immediately invalidates your comparison or do I need to explain further?
nobody needs a "personnal trainer"... all you need is a brain and the ability to read...
watch videos on the internet and you ll learn how to "lift weights"...
No but you do. Kinda works like this junior, if you can train an athlete successfully you can train just about anyone, it doesn't work the other way around. See what I'm getting at?

All I see is that you tried to pass off a statistically invalid comparison as a pseudo factual basis for some unfounded claim. Education and credentials speak for themselves. I have an M.S. in Exercise Science after my name and a degree from one of the best schools in the country hanging on my wall. You have 3 online certifications and the claim that you were "6 months from graduating." If you want, you can use me as a reference on your next application to Bally's.

1. You would have to be utterly retarded to get a 'Masters' in fitness... ROFL I could understand your passion if it was a real field like chemistry, biology, literature, etc. But you're like the gold medal winner at the Special Olympics, anyway you cut it you're still retarded
2. Coach has a proven income of between a quarter and half a million dollars a year, what do you make? $23.50 an hour !?
3. LOL just LOL
4. I'm a certified personal trainer in Canada, I have a CFP certification so I'm not talking out my ass. LOL it was a weekend course I did when I was 20 and it means jack shit if you don't know what you're doing or you look like shit.
So what certification is the best...does it even matter?no
I have people asking me to train them daily....do i even need a cert to take their money on the weekends?
All I see is that you tried to pass off a statistically invalid comparison as a pseudo factual basis for some unfounded claim. Education and credentials speak for themselves. I have an M.S. in Exercise Science after my name and a degree from one of the best schools in the country hanging on my wall. You have 3 online certifications and the claim that you were "6 months from graduating." If you want, you can use me as a reference on your next application to Bally's.
With all that so-called education and you make less than most normal people with no college education. Not sure who is dumber. You with all the wasted time in school or Goodrum with just a whole life of waste. Coach is killing you. How much more can you take.

You should have a nationally accredited certification for insurance purposes. If you have a B.S. then the CSCS certification is best. If you did not graduate from college go with the NCSF.
you have met the MINIMUM requirements to earn that degree.is that what you younger gentlemen called pwned? (http://www.freejunknstuff.com/laf.gif)

I won't work hard enough for 300K a year. I hate people too much. Fucking bitches with all their dirty laundry ain't worth the time.
I will do around 100- 125K a year and set my own hours. Fuck that.
I have other bitches do my initial consults for me just so they can weed through the stalkers and head cases. ("head" as in psycho)...
What about someone who is more experienced and has produced better results over time?
No, because I've ran into people who have been a personal trainer for 20 years at a gym and the only thing they did was count reps and write it down on a clipboard while walking them through the group of machine.
That type of skill can be easily obtained from watching Sesame Street for a few weeks.

Actually, i know that my Master's degree in Exercise Science makes me exponentially more qualified in the fitness industry than someone devoid of any education (you).
As much as I would love to explain my training programs to you, I am concerend that it may fall on proverbially deaf ears. I focus my training on advanced level Exercise Science, learned and mastered by those with the intellectual fortitute to complete post-graduate education. If you are interested in recieving a training seminar in advanced personal training techniques for special demographics, that is something my business offers, and you can private message me for prices.

Once again....where, oh where, is your degree from.
HugeRipped I have a set of two questions for you ???
(1) What is the optimal static kinematic state (i.e. angular positions) for performing the bentover barbell row? Please specify in both relative and absolute terms. I prefer radians but degrees are ok too.
(2) How many cocks can you fit in your vagine?
classic. im sure HR doesnt even comprehend your question let alone able to answer it.
to be fair though- he should be able to answer Q2.
>:(Turning yourself white doesnt change the fact you still look like shit
Certs don't mean shit.
