The final video of the two weeks, thanks to all those who’ve come to the classes or put up with these videos! Shout out to all the local independent gyms, the work they do to provide a space to train is incredible! If you’ve been unsure whether to try one…… I urge you to go have a chat with your local independent gym! 🖤💙

So what makes a good program…… one that keeps you coming back and one that masters the basics! ✅👊🏻

LAST negative video I promise 🤣
•
For some context also, if the AMRAPs are used to measure progress or to occasionally prepare for a race then I will allow them! 👊🏻
•
Tomorrow we will adopt a more positive approach to our last few videos 🤣 I promise

Apologies for anyone this offends in advance - did say I would try not to offend anyone - karma is wee man had a tough time during this one 🤣
•
Please remember these views are my own and I’ll happily debate them with anyone…. come at me! 👊🏻

My point is to be a good PT/Coach, you should be an all rounder! A good athlete (have experience in fitness), should be a good communicator (in groups and 121s) and finally be well trained in all areas of fitness! ✅✅✅
•
As I said, years gone by Trainers did loads of various qualifications circuits, spin, kettlebells, GP referral, VipR, Pre and Post Natal, CrossFit, Olympic lifting, TRX, Nutrition etc to name a few AND after that you still had to gain CPD points to retain to REPs accreditation! Now, do a 2 week qualification which we know is poo! It doesn’t teach you how to adapt exercise, how to teach the squat properly , deadlift properly etc and we end up with loads of clients loaded with horrendous posture but they don’t know any better and neither do the personal trainers!! 🤷🏻‍♂️ it doesn’t make them bad people, I think the system just fails everyone to a point and it means the great coaches with 100s or 1000s of hours experience coaching are overlooked for the young PT who still lives at home and looks great! 🔫 yeah I said it
•
For me I’ve never wanted to be a PT as such, in truth I’m ok at it - certainly not the best (far from it but I’m personable)! I can program a bit and I am ok at it, based on 20 years of doing it! I’m not a great athlete, I’m tall, weak and heavy! ….. but listen come to one of my classes and I promise you a banging workout and if your boring enough like me I’ll explain to you, how and why it’s all put together! 👍🏻
•
I won’t name names but I think based on my 20 years in fitness from those I know, there aren’t 100 of people I would want to train me! But at the end of the day who am I? 🤣
•
The best PT for you is the one that makes you keep coming back and getting the work done I guess 🎉

Hyrox and longevity? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Also I know I talk a lot of 💩 but can’t help but feel this is the view my toilet has!
