Getbig.com board member "Vince G" utilizes deceptive marketing to con prospective clients into believing that he is a qualified fitness professional. Vince G. He strategically places two acronyms after his name, in the same vein as those who have worked hard to achieve accreditation such as an M.D. or a PhD. Neither "CSN" nor "MFT" denote any type of collegiate level accreditation nor any type of nationally recognized certification.
First, let us analyze the latter fraudulent credential since the former has far more nefarious and potentially illegal implications. "MFT" stands for 'Master Fitness Trainer.' There is no nationally recognized master fitness trainer certifcation nor is there a collegiate level accreditation of that same name. Upon searching the internet, one can easily deduce that his MFT "certification" was purchased for 100.00 dollars off of an online testing website racket known as Expert Rating."Vince G.:" Do you let your clients know before they pay you that your only qualification to work in the fitness field comes from an online test off ExpertRating.com?
Now let us take a look at his more nefarious fabrication. "CSN" allegedly stands for Certified Sports Nutritionist. Let us analyze that deceptive title; to be a practicing nutrionist, one must first possess a B.S. in Nutrition and then pass a board certification exam. Since "Vince G" does not have a B.S. in the field, let alone is a board certified nutritionist/dietitian what is he doing advertising himself as a nutritionist? On his website, Caliber Fitness, he states that Nutritional Consultations are an available service - what is the name of the registered nutritionist/dietitian that is working at Caliber Fitness to provide the necessary legal qualification to give nutritional consultations to the public?

How pathetic, yet predictable, that when exposed for the charlatan and con man he truly is, "Vince G" has no words to even attempt retribution. Lying about being a licensed nutritionist is a serious matter, and so is deceptively offering nutritional consultations under that guise. I would strongly suggest changing your deceptive "credentials" as well as the services your company offers without a disclaimer before legal action is taken.
-
The only person he's deceiving is himself so I wouldn't waste your time trying to expose him. He does that well enough with his photos.

Its far more than him lying to himself. Pretending to be a board certified nutrionist and offering nutrition consultations under that deception is a crime.

I'm sorry but I never took any courses from Expert Rating
I have a certification in Sports Nutrition and one as a Master Fitness Trainer from the AMFPT. I also have a Diploma in Fitness & Exercise from Ashworth College. The AMFPT certification courses I took are taught at Georgia Perimeter College which is a regionally accredited school and recognized by the US Dept of Education. Ashworth College is also a regionally accredited school that's also recognized by the US Dept of Education. While the AMFPT courses were online, Ashworth College wasn't....its the same college textbooks, exams, and lessons that I had when I went to Mars Hill and ITT Tech
As far as my clients are concerned, of course they know what I studied. Its posted on my website
If I'm going to school for 4 years, I'm going to study something that requires some real skill. Its personal training...not general medicine... ::)

I finally support you on something!
-
I agree about the nutritionist part. People with medical problems--diabetes, heart problems, obesity--need advice from a nutrionist, not someone who claims to be a nutritionist (Goodrum). Although I don't consider bodybuilding to be all that complicated, people with serious medical problems need advice from someone who knows their stuff. I can picture Vince giving shitty advice to someone with a heart problem. On top of looking like shit, he is not a nutritionist.
-
Vince G, why the hell are you wasting your money on all these certifications and ITT? ::) With the amount of money you spent on all that, you could have probably received a BA in some field of exercise science from a decent college.
Certification & ITT = Epic waste of time.

Taken from the AMFPT official website,
The AMFPT certification procedure is:
1. Enroll online or by mail.
2. See manual login instructions on your e-mail receipt and on screen when you finish.
3. Access the online manual and exam.
4. Study the manual and submit your exam whenever you are ready by e-mail or mail (there is no time limit).
5. Receive notice by e-mail with your test results and score.
6. Your certificate, wallet card and letter of recommendation are sent.
7. Your name and email are added to the AMFPT trainers page.

Help them with weight loss or gain, muscle building, and sorting out the supplement maze. You'll learn how to set up your consulting service, what to charge, and have convenient forms, diets and questionnaires to give to clients. Only $79.95. 3 credit hours (3 CECs)
Sports Nutritionist Certification $79.95. Click link to enroll.

The AMFPT has absolutely no national recognition nor accreditation. It is just an individual man who decided to make money off of those that were too lazy to put in the work to get a real certification. Furthermore, your Ashworth College "degree" has no validity in a real world setting. The Ashworth College "Fitness and Exercise Course" (which can be completed through the mail) is not an M.S., a B.S. or even an Associate's - it is a "Career Diploma." Once again, another worthless scam certification, completed at home used to decieve clients into believing you are educated. Are you aware that providing nutritional consultations to clients you have scammed into believing you are a registered nutritionist is a criminal activity? You are in a deep hole right now, honesty is the key.

Call me dumb or whatever but I really don't know this shit. If you take a course online (any course) specifically PT courses. Can you cheat. I mean can't you look uop the answers somewhere

That is why online certifications lack any validity and generally any accreditation. One can easily just search on google or look in the accompanying text for the answers to every question. Do you really believe that a person such as "Vince G" who criminally decieves people into believing he is a nutrionist just so he can steal their money or "The Coach" who dropped out of college and lies about actually had the dedication to study for, and legitmately pass, an exam?

So far from what I've seen, everyone on here is more qualified than you. Until you can prove otherwise, it's hear say and you're a waste of time. Prove it. You can't even answer an elementary question on training, physiology OR exercise science. What kind of loser stays up till 3am posting on here during the week UNLESS they are on drugs?

Not really sure what your problem is with Coach. To compare or include his name with Goodrum is criminal in itself. Coach has 20+ years of actual experience and a list of success stories, his own successful business and obviously the educational background to support his techniques. Goodrum has nothing. he has no success stories, no experience, no business to speak of and his physical appearance is appalling for someone who is supposed to be a PT.
You on the other hand can definitely talk the talk but so far you have not proved anything you have said about yourself is anything but made-up. You still have never even said what schools you went to. How hard is it to scan your degrees or take a photograph,. So far all you have proved is you know how to use the power of the internet to disguise yourself and make yourself something he is not in real life. Until you show proof of who and what you are no one on here really gives a shit. But like Goodrum, you seem to come back for more beatings.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, only a complete moron or the biggest loser in the world would waste a good part of his life (6 years) to get a MASTER's degree in FITNESS, anyone with an iq higher then 70 would have spent that 6 years pursuing something worthwhile like physics, chemistry, biology, literature, calculus, medical degree, dds, etc.
not a fucking personal trainer making $18/hour after a 6 year master's course, LOL
-
If you are planning to make a career out of something get a respected and relevant qualification. I don't give a fuck what you may or may not make... take it seriously and I'll take you seriously. Success will follow...
I'm sick of this online course bullshit... HR and Basile have opened my eyes a bit. Its fucking messed up to say the least.

I've been practicing gynecology for years without a licence. Don't tell anyone.
Damn fine Big Dicked keep up the nice work.
-

This is the point. For most, it's not a career. It's a job you take until something better comes along.
What percentage of trainers really make it a career? My guess is 10%.
-
WHO CARES??
Tell me about it. I don't have to hide my AMFPT certifications because there are other folks like IFBB pro George Farah who has the same credentials.
People can go and talk about degrees and studying but the majority of my skills in personal training came from 9 years of real work experience. I did it on the side for 6 years because I already had a well paying engineering job and now that I do it full time,
I do the job well, I have lots of satisfied clients and customers, and I make enough off personal training to make a living off of it. If you wanna hate on that, then so what.... ;D

"Vince" you say (imply?) That you attended ITT Tech for an Engineering degree. Does ITT Tech offer an acredited Bachelors degree in Engineering? Or was this an online "Engineering Technology" degree that you use to claim you're an "Engineer"?
Are you a P.E. And if so, what states are you licensed in?

ITT Tech schools vary and they only started offering Bachelor's degree's recently at select schools. I went to class from 12:00pm to 6pm and worked at Fed-Ex unloading trucks from 1am to 8am at night.

nice comparison boy. I haven't lifted a weight in 7+ years there. Nice try though. Face you look like shit and you DO NOT have any experience. Why do you try to fool people who know. You can do that where you live but you can't fool people in the real world. You are a joke

Goodrum has a lot to answer for. That is why I suspected that he was living in a home for the intellectually disabled and the carers encouraged him to get diplomas so he could work in a gym. HR is correct that these online courses are not fair dinkum because people can cheat by getting someone else to write the answers or get answers from Google.
What is sad is that so many here agree with our buffoon and charlatan, Vince G, and consider personal training an easy profession. Gyms are full of poorly qualified individuals with basic certificates that are not professional degrees. You have witnessed Goodrum having sour grapes since he puts the courses down but doesn't have the resources or intellect to complete them. He doesn't work at a job but stays home and is supposed to clean the house while his husband wife goes to work. I call shenanigans on Goodrum who is the epitome of a scam artist and bullshitter.
-
Goodrum, do you notice the girl laughing at you behind you. Have seen the photos and video of you. EVERYONE is laughing AT you. Cause you are a joke. You know the funny thing is, I look like shit and I still had some of the best known people in the industry who are my old friends come to my booth and say hi and see how I was doing. You know why? Cause they know what I have done and I am respected by the people who matter still even though I look like shit. That is something you will never ever experience. You are respected by no one and you never will. Now that is reality.

What did you do in the Army Vince?
My MOS was a 31P10. I didn't finish my tour of duty but I have an honorable discharge. E-3 PFC, one service ribbon and a Marksman Tag which I could have gotten Sharpshooter had my gun not jammed during the test. The M-16 is a piece of shit if you ask me. Worst rifle I ever fired and a pain in the ass to clean with too many small parts that you can lose.
Only reason why I joined was because my older brother joined. I never should have signed up honestly but its the past now

And then your gun jammed and because of that you didn't get a sharpshooter rating. Oh god stop the insanity. You have moire excuses than anyone alive. And why didn't you finish your tour., I know why. And you even got fired from the Army. Dude you have never ever kept a job., You have been fired from every job and yet you have an excuse. You are a fucking loser!!

Wasn't Goodrum the dude who broke two bones when he slipped on a soda bottle going up the stairs at a PrePaid legal convention? That was his excuse for not showing up at a contest a couple of years ago. Seems to me his whole life has 'jammed' with convenient, fabricated excuses!
This guy is a bona fide Walter Mitty who would be successful were it not for unseen calamaties like having his gun jam. He is good at bullshitting and can do that all day long!

Thats all he has is excuses. He has been fired from every job he has ever had. he admits it. But he has said each time he was 'laid-off". Now he says he did not finish his tour with the Army yet he got his honorable discharge,. There are not many reasons why this happens. And it is really easy why it happened to him. But I still highly doubt he was actually in the Army. He was probably in ROTC like most hicks like him or at the most the National Guard. He never left the states so he saw NO combat. The guy is full of shit.

The sad thing is Melvin thought it would be easy to fool bodybuilders who he considers to be dumbasses. Guess his brain jammed on that one, too, because he is the one people make fun of! Who else here would have the nerve to post that they obtained a PhD in metaphysics from some obscure religious organization after paying the donation fee!

You owe THE BEEF A $100 YOU FAT BASTARD.
THE BEEF
LOL ;D

Thats all he has is excuses. He has been fired from every job he has ever had. he admits it. But he has said each time he was 'laid-off". Now he says he did not finish his tour with the Army yet he got his honorable discharge,. There are not many reasons why this happens. And it is really easy why it happened to him. But I still highly doubt he was actually in the Army. He was probably in ROTC like most hicks like him or at the most the National Guard. He never left the states so he saw NO combat. The guy is full of shit.
::)
Keith, I think that you simply argue just to argue....for the record:
1. You don't get fired from the Army
2. Yes I was in ROTC, so what??
3. GI Bill would pay all of a college tuition, not part of it
4. You're a 600lb fat ass
I'm glad that you and Basile try to make fun of people serving in the armed forces. Makes you look more pathetic than before

Vince, disclose all the info youu have on this "successful " guy. Remind us how he could not even deliver a tshirt order on time ( screwing Wayne D. ) Or how he screwed Shawn and Dave out of cash.
THE BEEF
He owes Travis for those T-Shirts and the owner of Muscle Mafia for trashing his website. Keith is a sad man who can't pay his bills or his debts. He stole Travis money to buy for rounds at the buffet table for a few days. ;D

Hey, Melvin, you and Keith got this mutual bashing thing going. You are both amusing. I just try to keep you honest but that is a pipe dream. I don't ridicule someone for serving in the army. I attended College Militaire Royal de St Jean in Quebec in 1960-61 but didn't want to stick it out to be an officer in the Navy. I joined the Navy because I liked their uniforms better! I even qualified for the air crew which took some doing. I was lucky when I left that military life to get a McGill National scholarship and attended the next year in Montreal.

So you weren't in the Army you were in ROTC. So tell us all why you got kicked out or didn't finish. You did not serve in the Armed Forces so quit trying to get sympathy vote. You are a pussy and probably never left your trailer park.

hahaha little boy get your facts straight. You make yourself look as bad as Goodrum. Gotta love you guys. You do what you do everyday (nothing) and you and Goodrum can live your pathetic lives. Everytime you and him post it really shows how good a life I have really lived and how much I have going for me even still. I could never imagine having to live like you or him. He pretends and lies about everything he does and you follow him like a puppy. Are you Vissy? Hey you owe $200 like I said so take it out of that you skinny twink. hahaha

something tells me ROTC was more of a way to meet guys...

Exactly. The funny thing is why he never finished. He has been fired from everything he has ever done. Of course he calls it being laid-off. But, can't wait to hear to why he didn't finish. And I love the excuse why he didn't become a sharpshooter. Cause the gun jammed. Oh lord he comes up with some good ones
-
ITT Tech was for Engineering...not personal training. I'm not going to spend a ton of money on a job of a personal trainer. Its not specialized enough
Vince I have no problem with you and you're mildly entertaining but don't spew crap out like you can get an engineering degree from ITT. You meant to say engineering technology (CAD drafting). Don't disrespect real engineers, we busted our asses to graduate at accredited universities.

And anybody with military experience would know that you can re-qualify on a regular basis, usually between 6 months and a year.....some of us actually had weapons that didn't jam and achieved Expert by Marine Corps standards.

Same applies for fitness professionals.
Vince G:
- Thinks because he steps on stage in shit condition and muscularity he is a bodybuilder
- Thinks because he studied CAD (that would make him a drafter) he is a qualified engineer
- Thinks he is a competent personal trainer because he paid for an online course
- Thinks he served in the Army after a stint in the ROTC
and to top it off he thinks a mail order PhD in metaphysics after a donation is noteworthy enough to share with his "mates" on getbig ::)
Clown... can you fucking believe... think about this for a minute... that he puts CSN MFT after his screen name on getbig!

Absolutely correct. You cannot get an engineering degree at ITT Tech, don't use the term "engineer" to make yourself sound important. You must graduate from an accredited university with a bachelor's degree to claim engineering status.

No, I can't draw worth a damn. ITT has a degree in Electronics Engineering. Try actually putting in the effort of visiting their website in the future

Listen carefully Keith....
I was in ROTC , I received a validation of proficiency because I left as a Cadet Major which allowed me to skip two ranks went into the Army as an E-3 Private First Class.
Do you understand??? Prob not... ::)

You guys don't know Goodrum. He can get because of his top secret clearance he got from Lockheed (a whole nother story of bullshit) anything. He is a master of bullshit. He twists shot around to make himself look better. I have said it all along he cuts corners to try and acheive things and he fails everytime. he literally has been fired from EVERY job he has ever had. Yet he comes on here speaking as an expert and saying he was laid-off of everyone of them. Now after I catch him in another lie about being in the Army he admits it was actually ROTC. The guy has no shame or honor. Any military person who actually served in the military should be honored and respected to the fullest. I hate guys like him who try to pass off as something he is not but peddles his shit to others by being misleading
-

Well, good for them. Its a lifetime ago and I don't keep up with it anymore. I still chat with a few buddies of mine who are still in but that's about it. There's nothing for me to be concerned with at this point in my life.

Too stupid to comprehend or read. Oh well, I got more important things to do.

My point was that if you had been on active duty, you could have re-qualed to overcome that pesky weapon jamming. But you did later say it was ROTC, so that explains it.

My brother was much better than I was on the range. He always ranked as Expert throughout his time. He could shoot that's for sure.
The ROTC program in high school kept me out of trouble and taught me a lot of leadership and survival skills. We had to learn for example how to do an Aussie repel off a fire tower and that's difficult to say the least. But it was fun after I got over it.
-
What Aussie repel move? Do you mean Australian rappel? That is when you abseil down a cliff or building facing the way you are going so you can fire a weapon.

Odd, you said you didn't take a scholrship cause you joined the Army. But ROTC is while you are in high school. So were you quitting high school in the middle so you could take the scholorship or join the Army or was it the Powder Puff league. What is it Goodrum. See what happens when you lie to much. you lose track. now keep it together.

In order to join the military you have to have a high school diploma, Sherlock
Perhaps you shouldn't think so hard about trying to "get one over on me" and that light bulb might click on in your head.

Vince is so full of shit, hes turned brown.

Obviously, there isn't much intelligent life left here on Getbig. Just trolls

Really, Hoiw do you explain the 14 year old boys who jopined the ,military back in the 50's and 60's. Anyway. What does that have to do with anything. Answer why you got kicked out of the ROTC or whatever happened. Did you get laid-off there too. You weren't ever in the actual Army were you. Post a photo in your uniform.

There never was intelligence on this site. I saw it in the beginning. It was the same shit.
By the way. Why do you list your qualifications after your name? Kind of seems pretentious and douchbaggy. I should have listed my degrees after my name too.

that is uncalled for. He was there to serve the country, and you should thank him for his service.

Bullshit. Most army dudes are just in it for a paycheck. All that "they served their country" crap if overblown. It's a job.
Especially since 90% of what the military is doing these days is not even good for the USA.

Even as an E-3, I only got 995 a month. It definitely wasn't for the pay. My family has served this country since WWI. Most of my family served as well as my brother so it was just following in the families footsteps.
-
anyone dumb enough to hire Vince for personal training should really suit themselves never mind his fake credentials. just take one look at him and you know whats up. sadly there is enough gullible morons for sharlatans like Vince to continue :-\
-
not that credentials(really) matters in the PT field.
lots of real life experience and and knowlage is what really matters but Vince has none of that either.

I bet your family dreads you even mentioning them. You are a huge embarrassment. Why haven't you answered the question why you did not finish. And admit it, you saw the military guy from the Village People and thought you were going to be stationed with him.

Hapless Melvin got put at the end of the lineup during the comparisons. So the angle makes him look odd. He was in great shape for Vince G CSN MFT.
-
Lets just say the thought of being around nothing but men for lengthy periods of time was not an issue for Melvin Goodrum.
-
Look at how long Melvin's arms are. His genetics are unique in bodybuilding.
