Why do all "Hollywood" trainers to the stars look like shit?

[The True Adonis]

Anyone care to explain?  They could hire anyone but they hire people like this:




Jay has worked with Jennifer Lopez, Ryan Seacrest, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Sofia Vergara, Julianne Hough, Kristen Taekman, Minka Kelly, and teams in the MLB and NFL, among countless others. He is the Former Fitness Editor at Large for Shape, a regular contributor to Men’s Fitness, the Resident Celebrity Fitness Editor for both Star and OK! Magazines, and a member of the Advisory Board for Muscle & Fitness. Jay has been featured on Good Morning America, The Today Show, Bloomberg TV, The Real Housewives of New York, MTV, CBS, and in Self, The New York Times, Us Weekly, InStyle, Time and Elle.

[oldschoolfan]

[oldschoolfan]

I would hire Charles Glass, Hany Rambod or Vince Goodrum

Would have to scrape the money together by cutting back on chicken breasts and maybe sell my desk.

[oldschoolfan]

i would recoment  remortaging your mansion as well.

this is vince goodrum we are talking about


i read once , he was working for arthur jones and helped design the nautilus machines as well

[Method101]

Since when can you tell naturals lift in clothes? I would have to see a full body shot to tell if these guys are in respectable shape or not. They are all very lean and that is all some celebrities want.

I would hire Charles Glass, Hany Rambod or Vince Goodrum

drug dealers?

[muscularny]

I would hire Charles Glass, Hany Rambod or Vince Goodrum

Vince Goodrum is too busy in these days sticking up for radical Islam

Back in the day. D-Mass was the "trainer of the stars", how times have changed!

[kreator]

cuz looking good doesn't neccesarily mean that you know what you are doing. Let me put it this way. When you get injured or have back pain etc,who do you go seek advice from? some good developed guy, an experienced bodybuilder or somebody like a specialist in physiotherapy?
The last has vast knowledge in human anatomy and how the body moves correctly etc. Personal training is not just about how good you look but how to recognize posture flaws, flexibility issues and other disabilities and how to correctly make things better so that your client can perform and live better.
Any idiot can follow some diet advice and move things around the gym etc. This is why you see so many self proclaimed PTs who think they are the shit just by having 20 inch arms.
Think outside of the box for a minute. Not everybody who picks up a weight wants to become shredded with 20 inch arms. That would actually be very easy. You train, eat and inject and hope the genetics is on your side.

Is this how you justify walking around completely out of shape?

Dave is only 170 lbs there? How tall was he.

[Thin Lizzy]

Apparently, this man, Vinnie Tortorich, is the go to guy for celebrities who want to get in shape.

As has been stated, here, many times, the primary purpose for Trainers, at this point, is to provide motivation, to those who can't self-motivate, you know, losers.

Training programs can be gotten online, very easily, and performed without some tool trainer up your ass.

[Irongrip400]

Those who can't, teach I guess.  And the first dude was some contributor for "OK" and "Shape", those are chick magazines.

[DroppingPlates]

Because they want someone with social skills and who looks fit & energetic, so not your average bodybuilding dork.

[funk51]

the original trainer of the stars

[drkaje]

They probably want people with true expertise, training, and education on the subject matter.

Managing to get in shape and some internet searches doesn't make anyone qualified to be a high level trainer.

[T-REX007]

Vince Gironda and Bill Smith ...

Gironda was quirky no doubt, but got results

Bill Smith legit BA !   

[Grape Ape]

I don't think you can draw the conclusion they can't "do" from looking at pics.  These guys aren't bodybuliders.  Stew Smith is probably the number one go to guy in military fitness, and this is what he looks like:

Dave's around 5' 4"...  I visit with him often. Great friend...

no sir, I'm in good shape, ,my pics are on this board as well

[Bulgarian_enforcer]

Imo best trainers are the ones that can get the best pharma hormones.

Gollum.....Any thread where you criticize how someone looks should be deleted immediately.

Lameass ugly troll.
