Is personal training a scam?
Let’s face it – there is an inherent conflict of interest….Once you hit your goals, you stop working with a trainer.
But personal trainers make money per session. More sessions = more income.
So do you really think that you get “all” of the information you need to lose weight and keep it off? If that were the case, you wouldn’t need a trainer.
Like Chris Rock said…
There’s no money in the cure; the money is in the medicine.
But, thanks to the web, you can get all the knowledge of a personal trainer for less than the cost of a single session with most trainers.
Here are my top 5 fat loss programs that kick the crap out of working with the “average” personal trainer:
1. Your Goal: Fat Loss
Best Program: Visual Impact Cardio – This program teaches you a strategic cardio method that will blowtorch belly fat. I’ve personally used this program to get down to 5% body fat. It works scary fast with a good eating plan. Click here to learn more.
2. Your Goal: Ripped Abs
Best Program: Truth About Abs– You’ve probably heard about this one since it has over 500,000 users. Learn why regular ab exercises suck and what to do instead. This is the first fitness e-book I bought several years ago and I still use techniques from this book to stay lean. Click here to learn more.
3. Your Goal: Eating Plan for Weight Loss
Best Program: Diet Solution Program– Learn how to eat for your specific metabolic type and why most of the popular “health foods” actually add fat…and what to eat instead. This program is the most comprehensive eating plan for weight loss that I have seen anywhere. Click here to learn more.
4. Your Goal: Gain Muscle
Best Program: Visual Impact Muscle Building - This program is by the same author that did Visual Impact Cardio. This author is the expert on how to build muscle without looking like a meat-head. This is how you can get the Brad Pitt Fight Club look (the end of Fight Club). Click here to learn more.
5. Your Goal: Don’t want to workout, but still want to lose weight.
Best Program: Eat, Stop, Eat– Brad Pilon’s program that teaches you how to use “intermittent fasting” to lose fat like you are working out…but without actually having to workout. Brad has a master’s degree in human nutrition and is a CSCS…in other words, he knows his stuff. Check out some of the users before and after photos by clicking here.
All of these programs are less than the cost of a single session with most personal trainers, and you will learn far more about how to lose weight and keep it off.
Bonus: They all come with a 100% money back guarantee. Does your local trainer offer one? Hmm.
My recommendation for max fat loss: Get Visual Impact Cardio and Diet Solution Program if you really want to lose excess weight quickly.
Why I recommend this: The combination of strategic cardiovascular exercise (Visual Impact) and “metabolic-based” eating plan (Diet Solution) will crush excess fat.
Hope this helps.
