Title: Dave Palumbo - Smart Personal Training course
Post by: ether on December 27, 2011, 06:03:02 AM
Are any of you fools enrolling in this compendium of medicine, pharmacology, physiology and fitness.

Palumbo is really after it these days, you have to admire his hustle...

I mean other than the usual paying his employees with protein powder (Erin singerman, Jeff etc...) the guy is quickly becoming the Ron Popeil of bodybuilding...

Is there anything he won't sell?

Also is his recipe for fake GH included in the course?

Palumboism is a rare, complex disease only seen in the nether ranks of competitive bodybuilders.
 
The condition is first characterised by the sudden development of an enormous midsection whereby the entire width of the trunk, ribcage and pelvis grows disproportionately whilst the oblique muscles will thicken rapidly and the abdomen will become distended with the patient unable to hold in their stomach.

The condition is further characterised by chronic metamorphasies of the facial and cranial features, culminating in thick folds of dermal tissue round the mouth and thickening of the Levator labii. Mandibular and mental protuberance hypertrophy and overall cranial hyperplasia, accompanied by a dramatic increase in the size of the frontal ridge follows. Premature aging is also common with Palumboism

A particularly spectacular symptom used to confirm diagnosis are disproportionally small limbs on the otherwise gigantic upper body. This is first observed in the upper limbs, where the arms seem to remain in a catabolic shrinking state compared to the torso who's internal structures are growing out of control in all directions. The reasons for this are not yet understood. The quadraceps muscles of the legs also seem to be ever shrinking.
Overall a more neanderthal type structure develops.
 
In advanced Palumboism the outer dermis takes on a crackly brittle look, almost as if the patient has been glazed or varnished like a ceramic souvenier. The color of the skin will become uneven displaying varying hues and shades from grey to bright orange throughout the entire body, whilst the skin may appear weathered and abnormally aged.
There may also be a high level of vascular distension which never seems to go away in the patient, this will often result in veins having a 'worn out' apperance.
 
Perhaps the most unusual and distressing issue is that the patient seems totally unaware of what is happening to him.
Post mortem examination of patients sometimes reveals large quantities of a foreign oil-like substance in the biceps and anterior deltoid muscle heads.
 
What causes Palumboism ?
 
It is not fully known what causes the disease, although it is speculated that a genetic predisposition combined with an over reliance on high and never ending doses of various anabolic drugs accompanied by a gradual 'shut down' or mutation of the patient's own endiginous endocrine system possibly awakening dormant cro-magnonesque genes are causative factors.
 
Although Palumboism shares some symptoms with Acromegaly it should not be confused due to the additional conditions described above when making a diagnosis.

Treatments
 
There is no known cure for Palumboism, as long as the patient remains on his drug regimen there is little comfort and the condition will continue to deteriorate.
 
Promptly discontinuing drug use may halt further development of the condition although it cannot be fully reversed.

Well, at 499 a person...if Dave and Chris have about the same amount of people as before which was about 50....then that's almost 25,000 dollars for a few hours of work.  Renting out a Jewish Community Center is peanuts as well as his printed books, plus he has an ecourse for 120 bucks. 


Dave's not a dummy....however I do question the fact that he created the course without any real outside input like most other PT courses.

So true...

Palumbo business model is simple though :
1) do more of what everyone else is doing at a lower quality
2) exploit anyone he can for unpaid appearances while claiming to "do it for the exposure"
3) pay employees with species supplements and free board in his basement, then lie to cover up why they left

10k per month is 120k per year (yes there is a big difference between 120 and 100k, at least for me)

and 120k per year is a lot of money, especially considering the only thing he does is copy/past his diet for each client

Palumbo makes probably closer to 200k per year if I had to guess.

I have spent time with him personally.  Just this year he oversaw a workout I did at Bev Francis and then we drove back to his house in his beautiful Mercedes AMG.

The guy owns a supplement company that does better than you think.  He gets a lot of money from advertising on RXmuscle.com because it is one of the top 3 viewed bodybuilding websites... in the world.  He also gets money from whatever seminars and side projects he does. 

I know he gets bashed a lot on this site and I can see why, but the guy is smart and knows how to make money.

agreed..i would think he may make more than that...im sure the supplement lines does fairly well and yes advertising money is huge...he brings in enough bank to be a part sponsor to the NYPRO and i think i see the species logo and the arnold

just because he has a overgrown hobbit in his basement doesnt mean he doesnt make money, he prolly pays him peanuts and still charges rent

Very tough to say.  I have personally seen his steroid "advice" and it's as if he went to bb.com and copied and pasted the bread and butter cycles, but halved the dosages.  I don't understand what his angle is pushing such low dosages.  His "athletes" are paid in supplements (protien, etc.) and species t shirts.  A few of my friends are very close to him so I could ask them for some better insight.  The guy gets trashed a lot but he seems like a nice guy.

No, Palumbo stays in a nice hotel room.  Singerman and his employee likely have to dogpile into one hotel room.  Its no different than when Blechman did the same thing to Palumbo, Romano, and Billy Guns.  They are all piled up in one room putting up coverage. 

Billy Guns would know more about it but there's no way to tell where he is

He is completely unlike Mentzer.
MM was fucced up no doubt but actually truly believed in heavy duty.

DP is just full of shit and truly dangerous. He has virtually no medical training (dropped out before doing any clinical work) and yet pretends to know and understand medicine and medical research.

Couple that with his inherent ability to lie through his teeth and with a penchant for money and you have some scary advice.
