Sometimes you just have to rant and let it all out. Today is one of those days. Mike and I just got back from an hour and a half at our gym and once again we had some characters come out tonight. I try not to judge people too hard while I’m there because let’s face it I’m not in great shape which is why I’m going. But one thing that kills me is people dressed poorly and people who pay trainers to “train” them when the trainers are not in shape themselves.
Tonight was no different. I really wanted to take this one lady to Academy and help her find a sports bra that fit and properly supported her. Normally I don’t pay attention to what people wear as long as they are covered I’m ok. But there seems to always be one person who just wears a sports bra. Ok fine except when the sports bra is too big and just not doing it’s job supporting you. So people who are reading please check workout clothes/support garmets for proper fit. I don’t care how loose or tight it is but make sure the piece of clothing is doing its job.
Secondly, when you are picking out a trainer make sure you are picking out someone who takes care of themselves as well. I just can’t tell you the number of people I see in my gym who pay these glorified counters to train them and after months there is no improvement. Yes I know first hand you can’t change your body overnight but before dropping $60 an hour watch the trainers work out other people and take a look at them. If they aren’t in shape why do you think they will help you get into shape??
Ok rant over and I now feel better letting that out as well as eating some dinner. I waited way too long to work out and then way too long to eat dinner!
