Coaches that train athletes value making their sports athletes better. Their achievement is based on enhancing their athletes overall performance on the field/court/ring. The End is usually what justifies the means.

Personal training though, you've got everything screwed up. The whole industry wants to talk about how exactly important "results" are. Every ones clients wants outcomes, you are http://edition.cnn.com/search/?text=New Jersey the outcomes delivery people. And how do you do that? You make #%^ up.

Disagree? Run down a mental list of the personal trainers you've encountered who utilize a periodization scheme, who have defined protocols for balance, power, hypertrophy, and power. Describe your education with Stuart McGills analysis and Mike Boyles Joint by Joint approach or the last time you examine anything by Verkhoshanky or Yessis or Bondarchuk. Your familiarity with Grey Cook and the FMS or Dave Tate and the EliteFTS company?

You understand who John Goodman is? Thomas Plummer maybe?

"Um, John Goodman is merely an actor. I don't know plumber is, is definitely he an actor too?"

... you sorry sorry fellow.

I can tell you the response, and its going to what is in-home personal training be considered a long set of NOs.

None of you know anything. Your "education" begins and ends with your training certification textbook that you never read. Your "workouts" are whatever the hell you found on YouTube that appeared hard. Your own teaching is the stuff you prefer, and you've neither gained significant lean mass nor improved your athleticism in the last 10 years. You became a trainer because you "liked working out and employed in a gym seemed easy", and that is a direct quote by the way.

Everyone reading this will swear they are not this sort of trainer, but they can say for certain at least twelve trainers that fit this description perfectly though.

You'll argue that you can say for certain your stuff though. Your argument depends on the reality that all you clients tell you that "you're my shrink/psychologist/life trainer". You'll eat that junk up and believe that you're amazing because you know the condition of everyone's marriage. After that you'll argue that their spending money on guidance because they're unhappy and its your job to make them happy.

Boy oh boy it is. Its also your task to get their BMI below 30 and lower their risk factors that come with being truly a deconditioned fatass. That's your first job. That's what they employed you for, lest you ignore.

"All my clients get outcomes though!! Except the ones that don't and stop after their starter bundle or inform me they cant afford schooling."

That makes a whole lot of sense. In the end, obesity bears with it no higher health care costs over the course of a person's life. Neither does seated 10 hours a day time, eating a diet plan of Costcos frozen food, and implanting your ass to your sofa. Those ideas all result in happy existence and by no means is a heart attack of type II diabetes in your own future.

So what types of program is your training based around?

Don't response, because that probably just confused the hell away you. And make sure you god don't state you're P90X certified. JUST, DON'T, SAY IT

I actually tire of encountering trainers that boast of their results based schooling principles, but have no system for producing stronger/skinnier/fiter clients beyond the program they pulled away of their certifications text book/FLEX magazine/bodybuilding.com. This drives me bloody crazy.

And to answer fully the question "whatever your qualification textbook/mens wellness/bodybuilding.com/shape magazine said" is probably the answer.

That's lovely, it really is. I'm glad that people who entrusted you with their health are being educated using workouts of the week from Bodyrock Television. (on a side be aware, I'd worship that girl's body till I collapsed by from exhaustion and dehydration, but I digress).

Ive heard arguments against trainers periodizing their clients training. Ive noticed arguments that most personal training workouts don't value the program, they just want to enjoy the workout.

Ive read all this, and then I shop around at a US inhabitants that is 2/3rds overweight, 1 in 4 are obese, and the prevalence of low back discomfort, joint issues, and a generally inability to MOVE is rampant.

And personal trainers don't want to check out any sort of progressive programming scheme, because the client might get bored.

So I'm calling out the complete fitness industry then. That is utter ridiculousness, and you all know it. Lucky for you personally if you train only hypermotivated athletes and models. Those aren't the training market for another decade though, the 100 million those who are overweight are the market.

These people will require a progressive system for ridding their bodies of this excess bodyfat. They'll have to understand the difference between bodyfat and lean mass. You will need to find out about hormones and how their insulin sensitivity is completely fucked up.

You may need a system to revive normal joint mobility. You will have to find out about fascial patterns and upper and lower cross syndrome and movement engrams and imbalances and how exactly to fix these things.

You will have to know about nutrition and also make coaching advisements that border on being truly a psychological prescription to improve.

You'll need to be able to improvement someone through defined stages of training that encompass joint stabilization and mobilization, that encompass the basic motion patterns of squat hinge pull press push. You will have to teach them why these things are important.

And you'll should do this for old people too, because geriatrics are overweight too and seniors are just getting older and more immobile.

You may need a system for all these stuff. A teachable, defined program.

And you'll need all of the education that comes along with it.

So get smarter dammit. And if all of this sounds unappealing, then get the hell out of this industry. I'm sick of personal training being regarded as a joke work that's done by university students and exercise addicts.

Were medical researchers, and we need to become it. And the majority of all, we need to BACK IT UP.
