Woman’s Worst Nightmare: The Certified Personal Trainer

Woman’s Worst Nightmare: The Certified Personal Trainer

- by Joey Atlas – ‘The Ladies’ Trainer’
—————————————————————————————————
As you may already know – I do most of my work out of an office and not a gym. I used to spend most of my waking hours in gyms, health clubs and fitness centers – until I shifted my business model a few years ago and began writing books and creating exercise videos…

Well, there are still instances where I’ll find myself in a health club or gym… I may be traveling or I may happen to be near one of our local facilities and I’ll stop in for a quick workout – or I’ll hop into the fitness center here in our community where we live…

Some people call this people watching – but I call it ‘workout watching’… As I’m doing my thing I’ll take notice of what others are doing – or are TRYING to do…

Who Does These?!!!

This goes for both fitness pros and personal trainers who are working with paying clients and for people who exercise on their own without a trainer…

It used to amaze me how many people do things incorrectly and dangerously improperly – both certified trainers and the layperson – but now I know better – and since I’ve taken the time to learn why most people are not exercising properly… It doesn’t amaze me anymore – I just accept it for what it is – and focus on how I can teach people ‘the right way’…

Most women don’t really learn what’s effective and what’s not – they may read some magazine articles and try some of the moves… they may copy exactly what their friend does – or they might just walk into the fitness center and use this machine a few times, go use that machine a few times, etc..,etc… – and then do this ab crunch machine which feels really awkward and uncomfortable – and then onto a cardio piece of equipment for a few minutes or until they’re bored…

Time goes by and they’re not happy with results – or they realize they “forgot about exercise” for the last 7 weeks… and “maybe I should hire a personal trainer! – Yeah – that’s it, I must be doing everything wrong – so I’ll hire a trained professional for a few thousand dollars and then I’ll be in awesome shape!”

So she goes out and ‘hires a trainer’ – which can be done MANY ways, the yellow pages, the local health club, your hairdresser’s plumber’s brother is a certified trainer, they’re everywhere…

I want to make a note here: This is not a knock on ALL certified personal trainers… There are many great trainers in the world – but from what I’ve seen and experienced there are a lot more incompetent trainers out there – that still have a bit to learn…

The BIG problem is… YOU SUFFER because of the ‘bad’ trainer. And here’s how…

You spend a bunch of money for a bunch of one-on-one training sessions with your trainer. You’re really gung-ho at the beginning – because you really feel your investment is gonna pay off and give you the firm and sexy body you want…

-
After the first few workouts – you feel like you are on the right track – because you feel some muscle soreness after your workouts, you like having an appointment, and you “believe” what your trainer is making you do is exactly what you need….

But several month go by and you’re not happy with your results – you still don’t have the body you want – you still hate seeing yourself naked n the mirror – you hate trying on clothes or clothes shopping…

And at your next meeting – your trainer reminds you that it’s your last session unless you want to pay another $700.00 for 12 more sessions, etc, etc…

Long story short – you quit and decide maybe another trainer can do better… and the story above repeats itself with the new trainer – and maybe you even try it a few more times with other trainers…

And finally you convince yourself – all these trainers can’t be wrong – “it’s gotta be me – this is my genetics or I’m just getting old – or I’ll always be fat and flabby – or I’ll just have this cellulite forever…”

And you end up forcing yourself to take the blame for the incompetent trainers – when in reality – you can get the results you want – you can “get your hot body back” – you just have to do THE RIGHT THING…

But instead you get depressed – you get down on yourself and your frustration and anger get the best of you – and you just give up altogether…

So – the title of this article should make sense to you now… Anything or anyone who convinces a woman that she is meant to be fat, flabby, plagued by cellulite, depressed and unhappy (whether it’s done intentionally or not) is a woman’s worst nightmare – because this can ltierally ruin your life and your health – there’s really no other way to say it.

You may have experienced this – or you may be going through some part of this situation as we speak… Either way I want to know about it. Leave your comments below – and let me know where you are in relation to the typical scenario above…

Before you leave your comment – I want to give you 2 real life examples of what I’m talking about above – here they are…

Desperate Lady Finds Miracle Exercises After Years of Frustration in Gym

“Joey… This is Amazing!

Several years ago I joined a HUGE Gym in Orlando, Florida. I won’t mention the name but it’s very famous. I had a GREAT trainer, she got a LOT out of me with the upper body. But nothing worked I mean NOTHING for my stubborn lower body problem areas.

We did squats, we used that Smith Machine or whatever it’s called. We used that machine for the calves, all of the machines… we even used machines in the men’s section of that Gym and still NOTHING worked. I was working out 5 times a week on my whole lower body – no matter what I did or tried… NOTHING WORKED.

My upper body looked great. People used to come watch her work with me because they couldn’t believe how much I could lift at my age, back then I was 43 years old, but my lower body was just AWFUL. I was doing 200 lunges a week, you name it I was doing it – but no results…

No results… Until I started your program, Joey. And I mean bigtime results, lifechanging…

My legs and thighs are much less saggy and getting more toned and shapely every week, the saddlebags are going away and there is much much less of that cottage cheese look, on the back of my UM HUM “rear-end”, (it was gross, I hated it!).

My inner thighs are not jiggly and I am developing nice muscle tone on the inside of the inner thighs. I have no clue the actual name of that muscle area but I can see it when I look in the mirror in the back – and I love it!

I have found that the Lifting and Toning section has really helped get rid of my Cellulite. Maybe I didn’t have Cellulite but just had muscles that were in atrophy, and it caused my skin to sag and get bumpy and dimply. BUT nonetheless… as soon as I started with the Lifting and Sculpting section, I started seeing results within 4 workouts – not 4 weeks – 4 workouts! VERY FAST…

I started on the Cellulite Reduction guidelines, and it was working great… but I decided to try the Lifting, Toning and Sculpting and then I started REALLY seeing results. Like most women, I was afraid my legs would get HUGE, but they got more toned, firmer and sexier!

And it’s making a MAJOR difference.

I walk about 4 or 5 days per week so this Lower Body Makeover is the perfect compliment. Older people need to know that there IS something they can do about sagging skin on their body! …build sexy muscle tone that lifts your skin…! There is an answer for sagging knee skin and horrid saddle bags… And I’m living proof… Who knew!

This is no small feat. I am 47 years old… So, what this program is doing for me is simply amazing.

Thanks so much, Joey!”

Four Trainers, 5 Years, Thousands of Dollars Wasted and NO RESULTS

Hi Joey,

I have been using your LBHT Makeover for a few weeks now and just have to shout, “THANK GOD FOR JOEY ATLAS!! ROUND OF FRIGGIN’ APPLAUSE!! FINALLY, A MAN WHO KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT WOMEN WANT AND CAN GIVE IT TO THEM!!!”

Joey, there’s a very good reason for my profound statement and that’s because I’m flat out fed up with the stupidity and uselessness of these people who call themselves “certified personal trainers.”

I tell you, Joey, I don’t know where they get their information from or better yet HOW the get “certified”, but they should be required to consult with YOU before they even attempt to train women, and MEN for than matter…

I have been through 4 different trainers in the past 5 years and none of them, I mean NONE, have been able to help me tighten this disgusting, flabby area around my pelvic region and lower body, like your program has, and very quickly I must add.

See, I didn’t always have this problem, only my butt and thighs were the original problem (which your program is also doing amazing wonders for). However, I was more concerned with this pelvic area because it’s not what I was used to.

After 32 years of age I started noticing this flabby bulge starting to spill over the top of my thong underwear, then the bulge started coming out from the bottom of the elastic strip waistband, then my waistband slowly started disappearing from sight… Eeewww, yuck!! So, yes Joey, for 5 years I had to put up with this because of my own lack of fitness knowledge and incompetent “certified personal trainers.”

Then, I found YOU and the rest is HISTORY or rather my fat, flab and cellulite are history!!

Thank you so much!! And my hubby thanks you, too!!

Love ya, Joey!!
