The Problem with Fitness is Nutrition.
How can you avoid do-it-all charlatans that try to take advantage of your vulnerability?
Here's how you, Personal Trainers (and Dietitians) can do better:
I always want to help people learn about fitness and strength training. What questions can I answer for you? Ask me anything 💃
Everyone makes mistakes—let's talk about a time when I made a big one.
Early in my personal training career, I met a client with a complex situation. Pregnant, with knee pain and doctor-imposed weight goals, she needed a lot of help. I was confident I could make moves.
Not all meniscus tears need surgery. We worked around her injury. She got significantly stronger, especially at RDLs. She even got to the point where she felt great and that she could avoid surgery.
My mistake was thinking that I could help her with fitness AND nutrition.
Might buy myself a few presents for Christmas:
1. @DarnTough (Socks) - I love these and people compliment my socks now?
2. Xero Shoes - My feet have never felt better.
3. Sweats - Annie (my girlfriend) keeps getting on me for having holes in my clothes 🙄
Is this adulthood?
I have some pretty big goals for December.
I'm turning 32 in January and will have been in business for 9 years come February.
I want to add 15 more clients to the studio by March. The more our community grows, the more fun I see clients, trainers, and myself having.
I want to get back into public speaking in the community on fitness.
There's a lot of misinformation out there and nothing replaces the 1:1 conversations I've had before and after presentations.
If you're looking for a presenter, I'm almost always game!
I want to finish the @GirlsGoneSTRONG Pre- & Postnatal Coaching Certification.
I started on it last year but put it down when I was taking Physics 1 and 2. I can never learn enough about women's health and strength training.
I've got so many new things going on in my life so I figured I’d (re)introduce myself.
Hi, I'm Steven Mack.
I own a local personal training studio in Columbia, Simple Solutions Fitness. I started from the trunk of my car in 2015.
Certainly not last or least - I have the most supportive girlfriend that I could've ever asked for. If you know me, this is the most important thing to me on this list.

Changing your habits? It's normal to have mixed feelings
In psychology they call this ambivalence.
Having simultaneous, conflicting feelings about something.
Part of you wants to start a new exercise routine in the morning while another part of you would rather sleep in.
How about some familiar unsolicited advice:
"Have you thought about...?"
"What works for me is..."
"You should try..."
"Stop complaining and do something!"
"Exercise is good for your metabolism..."
These attempts are roadblocks to communication that leave you feeling uncomfy.
