Costumer's attitudes regarding training/ nutrition

Well well well, today's post is dedicated on client's views about training/ nutrition. I will admit that these attitudes are very common in the 'cypriot training population' and to be honest I either want to laugh or yell really loud to these ignorant individuals.
Here is my list:
  • The 'PILATES/ YOGA' clients: These people, especially women are obsess with these training regimes. There is nothing wrong with these training philosophies, yet people do not know why they are attending these kind of classes. Women think that these classes are the only training classes for them. In my opinion, after a while these classes are getting boring anyways.
  • The 'CARDIO FREAKS' clients: These clients are the ones that perform endless cardio. They think that the best regime to have a healthy body and drop some kilos is to do 1 or 2 hours cardio daily. My opinion....hmmmm if you are lazy and you do not know why you are doing endless cardio which is in a way 'bad' for you....just go ahead.
  • The 'HUNGRY' clients: I can not stand these clients. These clients only eat once a day or they follow a low fat diet like the Gambridge or any other low fat/ low calorie diet. These individuals think that they are healthy.....oh my God! These nutrition rerimes are really bad for your health.
  • The 'LOOKING GOOD' clients: These clients are obsessed with body parts. They only want to train specific muscles..... abdominals or glutes for women and upper body for men (chest and back). Although, I have a chat with these kind of clients many times depicting the negatives of such regimes, they keep doing the same and the same routine.

What can I say....I do not say that I know it all, but if something is not good for your health....do you want to keep doing it? That's the most frustrating thing of all, these group of people mentioned above keep doing the same mistake over and over again. You make sure that you always ask the WHY???? you are doing what you are doing.

Hmmmmmmmm....... I'm curious if you are you one of those kind of individuals mentioned above or if you know any other people training/ nutrition attitutes that get on your nerves? Drop me a line and let me know...I'm out!
