    I market myself as an expensive trainer, and it works. I agree with the above poster. I'm getting busier.

    I've run into this issue before and found it to actually be a combination of pec and lat tightness, if the pain is closer to the surface. I picked this up from a friend who is a manual massage...

    If you know what you're doing it isn't dangerous at all. You can do them with no weight, a broomstick, etc. My clients do them with a kettlebell for a perfect counter-balance.

    Good points. Often they'll also make you sign a no-competition contract stating you can't train within x miles of the gym while employed.
    Working for gyms is a scam. I'm surprised more people don't...

    Walking is enough. You can also teach them how to safely get down on the floor on their back, then stand back up. Repeat for five minute intervals. No fancy moves, just lying down and standing back...

    My girl's son has CP, and it's a very complicated condition. His left side requires consistent myofascial release.

    It always depends on the Gym. The ones here in the Bay Area in CA are pretty good. I used to work for the PA one and it was a good place to start. I still work with them training the trainers with...

    I don't know man. It sounds like he's wading in the shallow end of the gene pool to me.
    Get a cert and get a job at Gold's or 24 hr. He'll probably have a harder time hurting people there.

    You know what, i've changed my mind.
    Sued for what? For being too f**cking cool for your own time, that's what! You go get them! You go train! Make them sweat and earn yourself a fortune. Don't...

    Wow. So the only concern is what could happen to him. Not the people who's time he would be wasting or potentially setting up for injury. Awesome.

    That's correct. Equinox is not a bad gig.
    As to the previous poster, a CSCS does not make you a good trainer. I've run into several trainers who had their CSCS and weren't worth a damn.

    Definitely go with Equinox. I started out working for them and now I train the trainers with kettlebells, so they really work with you. It is a much better gig than Bally's.
    I would mention the...

    Yeah, there's no '80%' and you pass. You're perfect or you fail. There's a 3-1 student to instructor ratio there, so the level of instruction is very high. I've been around kettlebells for a while,...
