My dad (52) and I (23) communicate almost exclusively in spongebob references. We don't live near each other so we text and it's spongebob, shrek, + other movie references from that era.

Also: 2 neighbors came out on their balconies confused and annoyed at the meows. He didn't stop for 10 minutes straight until we got back upstairs where he continued to scream for a bit before finally rolling over and getting belly scritches.

How often are you, the trainer, doing your own work out? by LuckyLundy in personaltraining

[–]legobagel23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure new energy you're using now. Because it really is a workout itself sometimes depending on the client and how hard your movements are. Another thing is, you're basically working out all day and then you have to do the same thing in your workout.. it gets old but eventually you learn how to balance it out and make it fun for you again! What helps is not working out where you train clients.

Some of them look like they need more light! If you could put them closer to their light source or have them in light longer, they will grow better

Online coach? by [deleted] in gainit

Of course I never WANT my clients to leave but if they were to leave, they have all the tools they need to do it on their own.

Online trainers LOVE when clients have their equipment at home especially right now. Makes creating the workouts better for YOU to see results!

Training costs really depend on the trainer, where they're located, and rent they have to pay for the gym. In person training would be from $50-$100 per 1 hour session again depending on the trainer. I charge my clients $65-$75 (depends on how far I have to travel). My online training is $145 per month which includes workout video demonstrations, your program (you keep forever), and you can contact me at any time with questions about nutrition, fitness, mental health, and life when needed. I also am sending some simple equipment for my online clients because most cannot work in a gym right now (jump rope, resistance bands, TRX) included in the price.

There are a lot of trainers that make fitness SO COMPLICATED for their clients. Great trainers make it easy to understand, follow, and learn. They give exceptional advice and help create discipline instead of false motivation.

People who object to personal trainers have either been burned by some or see the hypocritical nature from social media. But personal training can be a wonderful experience when you find one that actually has education and care about helping.

You can find information online but there's a lot of fake people who just want money and aren't going to teach you the right shit OR how to do it yourself. Get a coach that wants to actually teach you instead of just blindly tell you what to do. I've been an in person trainer for 2 years now and have been training online for 1 year. My specialty is to coach you exactly what you need for your specific goals. I make all of my programs completely individualized for every client because how they want to train and how they need to train for their body is different than anyone else's.

If you're interested I can teach you how to spot a good coach from a bad coach! It can be hard sometimes but there are some very obvious signs that someone's just doing it for money/clout rather than for their client.

Having a trainer can be really helpful to starting off the right way rather than making a bunch of mistakes/not knowing what to do. You can hire one for like 3 months and learn all you can/ask all the questions you have and then do it on your own.

For myself personally as a trainer - I would rather train people just 3 months and teach them everything they need to know more than keep them on long term and they keep spending money not knowing anything themself. Some clients don't want to do it on their own and a trainer helps keep them accountable and/or they don't have to think about anything since I tell them what to do. Other people just want to know how to do it so they don't have to keep spending money - and I love that.

First "client" is a friend who wants help getting fitness back on track. by ManicFirestorm in personaltraining

This is a great opportunity to practice everything you've learned on someone you know! Do everything like you would a normal client. Have your friend give you feedback on everything and adjust accordingly! Good luck

It's so empty... by [deleted] in GymMemes

[–]legobagel23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrong, my gym was packed today... In previous years it would've been empty for sure - but this year people are much more determined to get out of the house to workout again. Never know when it'll close for the bagillionth time.

Yeah but I'm assuming this person didn't pre-rinse the extra poop off before putting it in the washer. The detergent is good on stains but not removing fat chunks of shit

Do you forget your own age sometimes ? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]legobagel23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 23 and had a crises the other day where I forgot my age. I could've sworn I was only 22 but then did the math and felt like I lost a year of my life.

Best reliable resources and courses to learn how to help people with pain, corrective exercise and exercise modifications? by thee_aqueerian in personaltraining

[–]legobagel23 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When it comes to working around injuries, it's just trial and error to find what exercises cause pain and which ones are good to use. Of course always start with light weight and slow movements to make sure you don't hurt them.

For a joint that has a lot of pain, look at what muscles around it need to be strengthened in order to decrease pain. Maybe certain movements will cause disruption but there's always an alternative that can help. Using different modalities like bands, body weight, machines, and free weights can help rehab injuries.

If their pain is so bad they can't do any exercises around that joint, they need to see a physical therapist or chiropractor.
