10 reasons why you should not hire me …



1. I only specialize in weight loss. If you’re trying to lose weight, doesn’t it make sense to find a trainer who does post rehab, sports training, golf training, and posture improvement in addition to some weight loss on the side?

2. I’m way too expensive. Sure, I deliver tons of value and I know how to get you results, but wouldn’t you rather hire a discount trainer who’s been in the industry for a couple of weeks?

3. I expect too much from my clients. It’s much better to keep low expectations. That way, no one gets disappointed!

4. My methods are unconventional. Wouldn’t you rather just do a nice circuit at the gym and stay the same? Who wants results anyway?

5. I use a complete strategy that integrates all of the necessary components in such a way that they work together. You’d be much better off doing it on your own with a workout you saw in a magazine, a diet your friend told you about, and a couple of aerobic classes.

6. I vary the workouts to avoid plateaus. It’s better to stick with one workout routine so your body gets used to it. Progress is for weenies.

7. I care about my clients. I'm always asking how you are and if you're having a good day. I'm such a busy-body. You should find one of those trainers whose ego walks into the room before they do. You'll feel more like you belong.

8. I'm way too positive and motivating. Don't you want a trainer who is a charter member of the "Ain't It Awful" Club? It's good to introduce negativity into your workouts. It builds character. Besides, positivity is contagious.

9. My workouts are hard. Stay on the recumbent bike and keep reading your newspaper!

10. Wait -- I could only come up with 9 reasons not to train with me ... in that case, maybe you should train with me!
