gotcha. wish trainers explained this to me but I've learned that most of them don't know what theyre doing.

sometimes I feel like I also need a spotter on dumbells too, or at least someone to put the weight in my hands/help me set them up, or help me keep them stable. people say you don't need one for...

I guess I get what you're saying. because there's not much they can do with assisting me with the weight? and safety is a concern to me which is why I want someone near me. but maybe there's no point...

they can verbally correct me is what I'm saying. not necessarily related to them being behind me. but they might be able to see my stance better at least.

that's what I wish I can do but haven't found anyone reliable when I've asked around

I've had spotters for squats who would stand right behind me and I found it useful. at least for the sake of correcting form.

actually yea I may have. my bad

this is going to sound extremely stupid but I always feel a little shy asking for spotters in the gym. I feel like I mainly need them for bench press and squats and unfortunately the staff isn't...

that's an impressive increase. how long did it take you and did you have any challenges eating?

is it ok to have lox/smoked salmon every day 5 or 7 a week? I don't have any specific dietary issues or limitations. I'm trying to bulk. I was trying to eat an avocado sandwich every morning but...

I think my main issue is food because it's hard for me to eat a lot. how do you also stay motivated to force feed yourself?

my main issue is trying to force feed myself all the food and my friend has the same issue. open to suggestions (won't try to argue them like I used to) I've been also using the optimum nutrition...

hey man sorry for getting back to you so late since the forums are down. let me try to get better pics next time I go. just didn't want people to think I was taking pics of them. let me see what else...

I was literally wondering the same thing about fierce 5. but the responses in this thread make more sense.

so I guess "tailored" programs are just a scam. lesson learned I guess. I also could have sworn that different people may need to use different grips on different exercises depending on their bodies...

if I'm lucky enough to find a gym partner who knows what theyre doing than I don't need a coach or a trainer. what would you say is the difference between a coach and a trainer? just curious.

one session isnt enough to progress though. the word coach and trainer is sometimes used as the same thing. Some people may need help at different weights. unless I'm lucky enough to find a gym...

I also posted the gym photos if you can still take a look. I'm just revisiting old threads and rereading old replies without getting defensive.
