I have been a coach myself for more than two years, and now I have changed careers, but I still insist on training.
If you want to ask me, what do you think of a fitness instructor seeing a fat body?
I would say, let him go as far as possible!
The figure is equivalent to the coach's facade, and you are too lazy to practice. Why teach others?
People think that having training marks is the basic requirement for coaches. Training marks don't mean that you should practice hard, but refer to the physical characteristics you bring through sports or some special training, such as boxers' fists, hands full of calluses of unarmed fitness gods, cyclists' thick thighs, or bodybuilders' clear and full muscles.
In fact, there are many standards to measure the quality of a coach, such as figure, training level, knowledge level and communication ability, among which the most intuitive is the quality of figure.
The level of training, like figure, is closely related to the training results. Whether you are bodybuilding, fitness, unarmed training or comprehensive physical fitness, the higher the quality of training, the more obvious the brand on your body.
Don't trust coaches who say that they only know theory and can't practice well. Coaches will say that "practicing well doesn't necessarily teach well".
Admittedly, there are a few such coaches, but they are rare. On the other hand, from my own experience, most coaches don't practice well or teach well.
Of course, you just say that those fat coaches can't, they will definitely explode and talk nonsense to you. Isn't an athlete's coach covered in fat, as if he were the same as them, and suddenly promoted himself to the level of champion coach?
In fact, high-level coaches may not train because they have been engaged in teaching for a long time, and the traces of training have been erased by years, but this does not mean that others have not owned it. In addition, there are many coaches who can keep in good shape after teaching, such as Milos, Lu's coach.
Some coaches will say, "Although I am not as good as Bill, I know more than them, and I am more professional than them."
Supporting these shapeless coaches to say this is the so-called certificate. For members, in fact, they are faced with a bunch of English certifications, which are difficult to distinguish between true and false. Even if it is true, many of them can be obtained by spending a week on training, and there is no professionalism at all.
A good figure is the crystallization of persistent training and self-discipline, and training marks are the inevitable product of this arduous process. As long as you persist, you will always leave a mark on your body. A small white fitness instructor with no training trace will spit out hundreds of dollars for a private class. Fitness members may be stupid for a while, but they will not be stupid for life.
The suggestion of choosing a fitness instructor is not entirely based on his figure, but on his sports traces. At least, don't be thin to bamboo poles, don't be thin to show off abdominal muscles, and don't be fat to fat.
In other words, if you ask the coach to take you to gain muscle, the coach at least has his own muscle gain experience, or the muscle dimension is much larger than you are now. If you find a coach to lose weight, at least this coach is not pregnant. If you want to learn pull-ups, at least this coach can pull 10.
You must also stay away from that kind of mouth-gun coach. This kind of coach doesn't practice by himself and doesn't take care of members. When he saw people training, he said you had problems here and there. Some people say that squats can't exceed toes, and even the three major energy systems can't be said.
Therefore, when you start fitness or want to find a coach, it is necessary to learn some basic knowledge by yourself, such as the basic principle of gaining muscle and losing fat, and also to understand some basic concepts, such as body mass index, blood glucose index and body fat rate, which are within the normal range.
Then when you are looking for a coach, you can tentatively talk to him about some basic concepts. If you don't even understand the basic concepts, then stay away from him!
That's my opinion of a fat coach in the gym!
what do you think?
How to treat the gym personal training with obesity and no training traces?
I'm crazy. I used to be a PE teacher. Let me tell you the details.
Most personal trainers in gymnasiums have no training marks, which is an industry phenomenon and is caused by two factors.
Fitness is actually an exotic product. When bodybuilding was just emerging in China in the 1990s, the first batch of personal fitness instructors were basically well-known bodybuilders from all over the country. Personal fitness instructors are getting better and better at this time.
However, there are basically no bodybuilders who make money by personal education now. They started upstream business, began to train new people in fitness colleges or training camps, taught them private teaching skills, and even issued some coaching certificates.
Because after all, it is for profit, so the training is basically quick, there is no threshold, resulting in mixed personnel. Finally, these people will step into the gym to be fitness instructors. As a result, the fitness instructor's health is getting worse and worse.
Hobbies and careers really shouldn't be confused. I met fitness enthusiasts who used to teach privately, but they didn't like training very much, because after turning their hobbies into a means of making a living, they would gradually lose their enthusiasm for training and lose their initial heart at that time. The best way to destroy your hobby is to turn it into your job.
In China, private education is also sales. Private education must first sell classes. Every private fitness education has a performance appraisal once a month. Even some gyms stipulate that private teachers with poor grades are not allowed to train in the gym. Private fitness education cannot be as open as members. In the past, when I was a private tutor, no one left work for an internship at noon and night. Usually, we are not allowed to train.
Personal trainers learn and study more sales skills than training skills in the gym, and can't be as distracted as fitness enthusiasts.
Therefore, compared with fitness enthusiasts, personal training has no training advantage, which is their means of making a living, not their hobby.
In short, fitness requires great enthusiasm and long-term training, and fitness instructors undoubtedly do not have these two points.
Unless one day private education and sales can be separated, and coaches can only teach but not participate in sales, then the situation will get better.
I think some people are really invincible. They practice for a few months by themselves, and then go to a fitness school for two months. In less than half a year, they became coaches. How dare such a person teach?
In my opinion, you have to practice for at least a few years to get in good shape. Systematically learn fitness movements, understand human body structure, and deeply understand bones and muscles. Know a little medicine. Understand nutrition.
Secondly, you should be a coach of an old driver or a travel coach for a while. Understand the differences of each person's body structure. I have met many coaches, and no matter what your physical structure is, they all pose the same way.
In short, the threshold for gym coaches is too low and uneven.
According to my experience, you need a coach. These points can help you avoid many minefields. First, the coach has a good figure. Two, engaged in the industry for more than three years. Third, he pays great attention to action norms in class, and maybe he only teaches you one or two actions in one class. I didn't just come up here to kill you. Fourth, observe whether all the students he teaches are unified in a routine. It is suggested that novices who want to ask for personal education should not ask for it as soon as they arrive at the gym. Run by yourself first Play with the lightest equipment.
Being fat is not terrible, the key depends on his teaching level. Of course, you have to observe his usual training process to see if he has real skills.
There will be many muscular coaches in the gym, but there is a lot of abdominal fat. You can't say that he can't practice well, but he has too little aerobic training and poor diet control. If it really wants to do aerobic exercise, it can lose fat successfully in 2-3 months.
1. Usually only practice equipment, such as practicing chest muscles today. When you come up, do barbell bench press, then tilt dumbbell bench press upwards, and then do several groups of dumbbell birds, rope chest clips and butterfly chest clips, and then it's over.
In the next few trainings, I still practice the corresponding muscle parts, and rarely arrange aerobic exercise plans.
Ordinary people are like this, and so are fitness instructors. They pay more attention to increasing muscle mass and seldom go running or cycling.
2. Do not practice abdominal muscles at ordinary times. Although abdominal muscles need lower body fat, like other parts, they need repeated training and stimulation to have thickness.
In this way, just looking at the pectoral muscles and shoulder-arm muscles, abdominal fat always accumulates there, giving people a feeling of obesity.
If the coach's muscle mass is higher, his abdomen will be more bulging and it will make him fat.
I seldom train fitness instructors. I usually work hard, for example, students who take 10 a day have no time to train.
Once the interruption exceeds 1 month, it will be very tired to resume training later, so I will give up training again and again.
If you don't practice for more than 3 months, you will continue to eat protein powder and muscle-building meals, and then eat supper at night 12. After a long time, you will be as fat as those members who want to lose weight, and the weight will be more obvious.
4. The coach's level is more important than his figure. We often see those foreign coaches online. Many of them are not good-looking or even obese, but their teaching level is very high, and it is easy to find students' problems.
So is the gym. If you think that the coach is fat, that he has no training traces and doubts his ability, then you need to look at his guidance level.
For example, when you do high pull-downs, you can't find the strength of latissimus dorsi, and you feel much better after following his guidance.
For example, when doing barbell bench press, I always feel that the pressure on my shoulders is relatively large. He made some adjustments to your movements and quickly eliminated the pain in your shoulders.
As long as this coach can help you solve the problems in fitness training, and it is much better than when you used to train by yourself, it means that he has a training foundation, but now he may not practice or practice too little, leading to obesity.
However, if, under his guidance, you find the training difficult, and even more difficult than your previous training, then you should look at his training process. If your training is not as good as yours, your training level is average.
Generally speaking, having fat in the gym does not affect teaching. The key depends on his ability, which is very important.
A good coach should make a training plan according to students' sports ability and requirements, and also correct students' movements and postures, strength problems and so on. These are the key points, and we can't just look at others being fat.
Most coaches are salespeople, as long as they can practice their mouths.
Fitness is a responsible attitude towards your body, not the body of your personal trainer.
Even if the personal trainer in the gym is still fat and has no training traces, it can only show that the coach does not pay much attention to his body image, which does not mean that the personal trainer in the gym is not a good coach!
Of course, the coach with training traces looks strong all over, with a particularly good figure, muscular and well-proportioned figure. Such a coach pays more attention to his image, and the coach may also strictly control his diet and exercise!
So you think the personal trainer in the gym is still covered in fat and there is no trace of training at all. If you look uncomfortable, or feel that the coach has not cultivated a good figure himself, what is his ability to teach you?
Then you can choose a coach who doesn't need such a fat figure! You can change to a coach you feel more comfortable with!
Of course, as a fitness instructor, you should not only have professional sports knowledge, but also have a muscular figure, which will naturally attract many fitness enthusiasts or members to invite such fitness instructors.
There are too many remedial classes to practice. Not all retired world champions are fat. Although it will definitely affect your personal image intuitively, if you think deeply, your major is not necessarily reflected in your appearance. You can't judge a book by its cover. Is it true that ophthalmologists with glasses are unprofessional? ! There are many reasons for getting fat, so you can't directly deny each other, at least know more about it, so that you can have equal opportunities! And there are many fat coaches in the fitness industry. For example, in the offseason, they all gained weight, but they recovered after training for three months. Can you say they are unprofessional? When the coach is stressed, he sometimes needs to relieve the pressure, such as eating and drinking coke. ...
In the last two decades, the rapid development of fitness in China has also made the team of fitness coaches mixed. Gyms of all sizes are mixed with so-called "fitness instructors" who are covered in fat or even fat, which is one of the most negative phenomena criticized by members in gyms.
From the member's point of view, the coach didn't practice well himself, so why should he teach others to practice? Members will think that coaches are fitness professionals who know more about exercise and diet than ordinary people, thus shaping a proud figure. Therefore, fitness instructors can sell private courses to members because people think they have the ability to provide such professional services.
So, how is this ability of professional service reflected? The most intuitive thing is that it must be reflected in the coach's own figure. In other words, private education should be better than ordinary people's good figure, which makes sense.
At the same time, the good figure of private education itself is the most convincing example. More direct and intuitive than any sales skill. If a coach is fat and has no training trace, but he sells private education courses to members and guides them to train. This is not convincing under any circumstances.
Therefore, from the point of view of members, it should be reasonable not to tolerate the existence of "a fat coach".
From the coach's point of view, "a fat body" is also a typical performance of body management failure. For a coach, you are engaged in the work of "shaping others' bodies" and make a living from it. At the same time, I also know that physical exercise itself requires exercisers to have considerable hard-working quality.
Then, the coach should become a fitness role model for ordinary people. The best performance is to create a good figure that is far better than ordinary people. Let others see that you are engaged in the fitness industry, and you are an excellent fitness instructor. That's why the coach in the gym wears tight sportswear. Dare to wear it if you are in good shape, but short life if you are in poor shape.
Obviously, it is a negative textbook and a typical performance of physical management failure.
Although engaged in this industry, fitness coaches have great work pressure and long working hours. Many coaches will neglect their own exercise because of their busy work, so that many fitness coaches are not as good as those who train hard.
However, being busy with work can't be the reason why fitness coaches ignore exercise, because ordinary people who have developed a proud figure are also engaged in their own work and exercise in their spare time.
As a fitness coach, since he has convenient conditions for fitness and better professional sports knowledge, he should overcome his own difficulties and shape a good figure.
Note that the coaches of these national teams are all excellent athletes at first, and they are in good health. Their professional ability and endurance have long been widely recognized.
Unless you are as good as them and you don't need to rely on your good figure to prove it, it is not universal and convincing to use the examples of these top national and international coaches to illustrate the problem.
From the point of view of gym, the existence of "fat coach" is one of the negative manifestations of traditional business model. It seems that the fitness instructor's poor figure is every coach's own business, but it has a very close causal relationship with the traditional business model.
In the understanding of ordinary people, fitness instructors should be purely technical jobs that provide fitness guidance for members. However, in fact, this job is a sales-oriented job, and fitness service guidance is more like a subsidiary and subordinate job.
In the gym under the traditional management mode, as long as a coach completes the sales target well and the sales volume is high, it means that he can bring more income to the gym and the boss. So even if such a coach is in a bad state (what does it matter), he will be recognized by the boss.
It is precisely because of this job nature characterized by "sales first, fitness service second" that a large wave of coaches with "a fat body and no training traces" have been created.
From the actual situation of the gym, although we can easily find "fat-headed" coaches, we can also see more coaches with devil figure, and most of them can teach them to exercise for a long time and keep in good shape. Generally speaking, the physical condition of fitness instructors is better than that of the general population.
For every member, if you decide to buy private courses, then avoid those "fat" coaches!
Situation 1:
Now gyms are flooding, not to mention other cities. Just like a small town along the 4th and 5th lines, there are more than a dozen gyms and studios.
Most employees don't graduate from sports colleges. On the contrary, many of them didn't go to college after graduating from high school and didn't know what to do. After training in a training institution for several months, they became a fitness instructor. So generally speaking, the professional quality of practitioners is not very high.
In this case, it is normal to see some private teachers covered in fat.
Situation 2:
Some former private tutors have excellent bodies, huge muscles and obvious contours. After working for a long time, I gradually become lazy, but without self-discipline and less exercise, my body will soon get fat. This kind of private education is good, with professional fitness knowledge and training skills. Although the self-influence is not very good now, it can make students lose weight and shape.
In fact, this phenomenon is becoming more and more common in sports circles. Before, it may be a national excellent athlete. After retiring, I stopped engaging in sports transformation and became a coach. He took more students, did less exercise, changed his body shape and gained weight.
Such a coach has rich sports skills and experience and can bring out many good students.
Therefore, when you meet a fat personal trainer in the gym, you should distinguish which category you belong to. If you can't tell the difference, find someone with a good personal image, strong muscles and obvious outline. There is a good chance that you won't make a mistake.
