When I started working out at the beginning of last year, with the goal of gaining muscle/weight, I decided to get a trainer at the gym too. I could've just started on my own but I have the money to hire someone so I thought it would give me the best chance of attaining my goals. You can watch KZitem videos, from people like John, and that's a great resource but it's definitely not the same as having someone there right next to you to help and guide you. The accountability is also a big reason but I didn't have an issue at all with that for the first year cause I wanted to succeed so badly. But this year I've been slacking; I just am really struggling to eat enough and so it doesn't really matter what the heck I do in the gym, if you don't eat enough you're not gonna gain nothing. Overall I'm glad I got a trainer. I have him until the end of this year and I'll go on my own then but I can definitely see myself going back to him to overcome a plateau. I gained 35 total pounds last year and I'd like to do another 20 lbs or so but that fricking appetite is just killing me.

Lee Iacocca leader of Chrysler for many years when ask about his success once said in an interview and I am paraphrasing here " I failed 99 out of 100 times but I never stopped trying" He was in the car industry so failing was huge. Failing to maintain your health and diet and fitness just means a miserable end of life and I have seen plenty go through that. I got a trainer for 3 months to get the feel of things and he was a very young person. While training I read the trainer certifications and studied watching tons of videos like John here and learning to ignore anything based on social media and Instagram. I follow Jeff Nippard and John and will be learning always with these two for a very long time.

Good video, always raced triathlon better with a coach. 1 accountability 2 realistic goal setting based off training. It really makes me want help with body recomp, but I don’t plan on competing so it’s hard sell for myself. I’m exactly where you say. I’m at that last 5-10%. 60-90 days of mental toughness I’m failing myself where a coach would probably keep me more on task.

Great video John. There is an IFBB Pro who works as a coach and does personal training at the local Golds Gym. He's 212 at contest time like you are. While in the gym I hear him doing a lot of training with people who are extremely out of shape. Most of his clients are morbidly obese and have very little muscle mass.. It seems like all he really does is have people on machines doing RPEs of one for 10 reps and for one set. I know he doesn't train that way. He's really personable and it seems like he really makes his clients enjoy their time. It seems like he really likes it as well. It just really seems to me that it would be a lot more fun to train people who are professional or at least into it a little bit. My hat is off to him but I don't know how he does it.

Sir can you do a list for must have certificates for PTs and Pt candidates? You may even want to have a New KZitem video series for Personal Trainers. Do's or dont's, general recommendations. Do you believe it's a legitimate business model in the upcoming future etc. Because mister i believe you are not only motivating your watchers for training. I suppose at least 10 percent of them sees you as a role model (me including) and by doing that wants to be a succesfull individual and online PT. THANKS for all the things you taught us untill now.

Question. When do you think given the issues we all (seems like anyway) have that last bit of prep is the time that a coach is needed? I personally know very well how to diet. I went from 266 to 193 on stage on July 10th. I know what works to get pretty lean, what I don't know, and can't seem to figure out is that last bit. A good example in hindsight, doing the conservative rice cakes and PB after weigh-ins left me still abysmally flat on stage, and I really don't know what I should have done to rectify it. So I guess the crux is, what's the shortest time you can really get to know a client's body and what works so that you're in a position to really dial it the final week.
