Personal Trainers Talking Rubbish!


To firstly warn you, this is a bit of a rant however, it is also a good guide to help avoid being ripped off or misled by Personal Trainers promising you the dream they cannot deliver!

I am sick and tired of seeing personal trainers making statements on websites, facebook, twitter and every other media platform out there promising people the body of their dreams in 21 days or a 6 pack in 6 weeks, or drop a dress size in a week.

Women and Weight Training

When women come to see me at my private training studios, one of the most common goals requested is weight loss and toning.

This never fails produce a concerned look on their face shortly followed by “but I don’t want to bulk up or be like a body builder, I just want to tone up”.
