"The Coach" claims to be a fitness industry professional
« on: April 10, 2010, 02:42:15 PM »
"The Coach" claims to be a fitness industry professional, helping athletes achieve their fitness goals through his MPF Training Systems business. Upon further investigation into the crooks that "The Coach" employs at his training business as well as his own personal lack of credentials, one can conclude that he is a run of the mill scam artist looking to make a quick buck off the public.

MPF Training systems employs a chiropractor and massage therapist who parades himself as a doctor known as Tyler Houston. He graduated from the Utah College of Massage Therapy, a vocational school that has been charged with a formal complaint by the U.S. government (see March 2002, United States Department of Justice against Utah College of Massage Therapy). Would you trust a man who recieved his education from a criminal vocational program? Furthermore, this man worked in the Skin Deep Day Spa in Huntington Beach, CA which is now closed down. Prior to it closing down due to financial difficulties, one person complained online that the "only down side is that she dropped something on my face & i now have a small bruise below my eyebrow" on 9/9/2009. Does this sound like a place of professional business? Furthermore, Tyler Houston has worked with a man named Paul J Newton at the Fitness Chiropractic and Massage Therapy. Paul J Newton has three cancelled chiropractic licenses under his name in the state of california with two more valid ones, all in different counties. Do these sound like trustworthy men?

Furthermore, "The Coach" parades himself as a fitness professional yet he does not even have a college education.

I came about six months short of my degree

This man hides behind online personal trainer certifications to hide the fact that he could not graduate college thirty years ago. Given his self admitted lack of credentials and inability to graduate with a degree why does he claim that he has one on the profile he made on personaltrainer.com

He lists his education as "Cal Poly Pomona, Kinesiology, Exercise Science. Mike Boyle (Head Strength and Conditioning Coach, Boston University) Mentorship Program. USC Strength and Conditioning, Chris Carlisle" - but that cant be right since he already admitted to dropping out. Is he listing false credentials to scam customers?

"The Coach" goes on and on about how he trains athletes, but lets take a look at one of his most hyped up clients - Jay Silva who has lost both his fights unanimously since he began training with MPF. No wonder they have no "testimonials" on their web page.

you surely are retarded?

you continue to be hooked on credentials and im wondering why this attack on the coach?

many of us know that stupid is as stupid does and frankly, the coach does stupid.

whilst i agree on the points you make, why do you feel that you are the one to make them? Are you trying to help us poor souls out?

ill say it again that your masters qualification is dubious to me. Prior to your masters you mustve qualified for a bachelors- what was it and where?...or is it one of those hollow masters that fly around these days.

really, a masters can be obtained in many areas with most of them not amounting to anything useful. If you were to say that your masters was in medicine, or engineering, or any of the more challenging courses then your cred may be better.

a post grad in some form of exercise discipline would rate higher IMO.

But we get back to it- why tell us and feel the need to "educate"?

for real cred, write a paper for publication, have it critiqued by experts, then get back to us.

maybe even post a link to your thesis.

Not to be defending Joe but the Utah School of Massage Therapy is still nationally accredited and any issues involving the school is completely unrelated its students and graduates.  You can't hold a graduate responsible for the school they went to.  

Same with the Spa...again he was just an employee...not the owner of the facility.  Unrelated


Unless you have something specific on Tyler Houston, its nothing to write about

"The Coach" continues to scam the innocent consumer by teaming up with an underhanded supplement company and peddling products with exaggerated claims to earn a quick buck. The following 2 products are my personal favorites in terms of the wide array of snake oil sold through MPF:

Pro GF
Osmotic Anabolic Stimulant
There is no other product like Pro GF on the market. Through science and research, a radical new anabolic stimulant has been developed. Pro GF is designed for the elite athlete to assist in producing better quality workouts and to help sculpt a larger, leaner, and stronger physique through its unique glutamine preservation action. Buy Now!
Price: $44.99


In reality, this "radical new anabolic stimulant" is 45 dollars worth of underdosed glutamine, creatine, NAC, glycine, taurine and arginine.

ProSLAM! & ProSLAM! 45
Protein & Beta-Alanine Pre-Workout Supplement
Ready-to-Drink vial that deliciously delivers 27 / 45 grams of protein, zero / 2 carbohydrates and zero fat in less than 3 fluid ounces. This revolutionary pre-workout formulation contains beta-alanine, a powerful supplement that has been shown to delay the onset of muscle fatigue. This translates into being able to train with more intensity and recover faster, therefore allowing for greater lean muscle gains. Buy Now!
Price: $31.00 / $34.99


This is an extremely nonsensical scam product that is supposed to be used preworkout yet it contains 0-2 grams of carbohydrates, 27-45 grams of protein and a mild stimulant. Perhaps someone should tell "The Coach" that protein accounts for only 15 percent MAX energy utilization during a workout, maybe if he stayed in college he would have learned that.

I understand where you are coming from HR, but please understand that you don't need to be in possession of a Bachelors or Masters degree in anything fitness related to provide true results to clients in the realm of health and fitness.

Whether COACH has attained proper certification means nothing.  So as long as he can provide his clients with actual results, his reputation as a trainer will precede him and propel clients to seek out his help.

Jay Silva is a fighter.  COACH is a fitness trainer.  COACH probably knows very little about MMA fighting and certainly isn't a black belt in Jujitsu, Muy Thai or any other art. If Silva's fighting repertoire lacked enough dimensions to gain him a win, it has nothing to do with the "physical" training COACH provided.

Don't take COACH too seriously, this is a bodybuilding board.

The truth comes out. This is all about your ego isn't it?

Why attack coach like this? If you're a man with principles and a "fitness guru", why not act like one and have some class?

Consumers can make their own choice, as to whether or not that want to utilize coach's services...why must you use a "negative sell" tactic against him? Bad business my friend, it will come back to bite you.

Why do you put "CSN MFT" after your name as if those represent some collegiate credentials? Upon investigation, I have found that both are non-collegiate entirely online courses. I have an M.S. in exercise science and a B.S. in Nutrition and Dietics, and I find it personally offensive that you are trying to represent yourself as an educated professional with online scam courses.

"1"

He regularly discusses training top level athletes and advertises his training company by the use of Jay Silva's namesake. I am merely curious if Jay Silva is unaware that he is putting his athletic training in the hands of a man that does not have a degree (yet claims he does on self made personal trainer website profiles) and employs shady massage therapists. One cannot argue with results, and upon training with MPF, Jay Silva has lost both his fights unanimously - it does not take much of a stretch of the imagination to realize thats what happens when a real athlete puts his career into the hands of a man that has no academic credentials.

So what? Who are you? In any industry all kinds of people make all kinds of claims.

It sounds like you are a jealous and with all your degrees, you have not been able to do much more than train regular Joes on a day to day basis.

Negative selling anyone within your industry is a big no-no. Clearly, you're not business savvy.

You can say that again.  I agree that he seems to be knowledgeable in the world of fitness.

BUT

In the realm of politics, he is the congenital retard always trying to put a word in..
