Dear Friend,
Hi, my name is Jim Coughlin. Thanks for visiting my website. I know you're probably skeptical as you should be.
After all, you may have been burned in the past by a personal trainer or you have heard your fair share of personal trainer horror stories from friends and family.
Yes, it's true. This industry is filled to the brim with individuals who have no business calling themselves fitness professionals and, unfortunately, give us good ones a bad rap.
Many personal trainers tend to train part-time and, consequently, don't take this profession seriously, or, many are simply very bad at what they do...lol.
The following are 10 trainer don't's that all signify red flags and should immediately tell you NOT to hire them or, if you already have, get your money back as quickly as humanly possible!
1. They don't clearly define your fitness goals from the very beginning of your fitness program so you know exactly what to expect and how fast you will see results given your fitness level.
2. They don't keep track of your fat/weight loss progress so you know exactly where you're starting, how much your body is changing with your measurements and body fat percentage and where you would eventually like to be.
3. They don't record/change each one of your workouts to keep your body from adapting and hitting a plateau.
4. They don't educate you about general fitness and seem very unknowledgeable when asked simple questions.
5. They don't keep you accountable with your nutrition and let you eat whatever you want when you know you're getting away with murder.
6. They don't focus on you and instead complain about their own personal issues which bring a negative energy and detract from your workouts.
7. They don't show up on time which obviously shows they have absolutely no respect for yours.
8. They don't practice what they preach with their own fitness goals and are in bad shape themselves.
9. They don't give you safe and efficient workouts which constantly leave your body fatigued and prone to injury.
10. They don't act like a professional. Whether it's them trying to come on to you like Don Juan. Their attire looking like it hasn't been washed in weeks or just lacking simple manners, these trainers epitomize how not to act and what not to do.
There's plenty more I could list, but you get the idea. Bottom line: personal fitness trainers who exhibit these qualities should be avoided like the plague!
They WON'T and NEVER will get you the results you're looking for. Period. If you somehow did manage to get results, it would only be because YOU luckily figured things out by yourself...lol!
So how am I different?
Well, I'm sure you can figure out that I definitely "do" the 10 things previously mentioned...lol. But I'm also different from most trainers because I not only expect a lot from myself - but YOU the client as well. I don't just train anyone. If you are someone who is NOT 100% fully-committed to achieving your fitness goals - then I don't want your money .
Yep, other trainers online or in gyms will gladly take your hard-earned cash regardless of how serious you are, but not me...no siree. If you're not completely ready to change your life for the better, then you can go ahead and stop reading right now.
No offense, but why on earth would I want to train you when I have many other clients who ARE serious and are happily ready to achieve their fitness and weight-loss goals? Let me quickly answer that for you: I'm not going to. :)
Now, on the other hand, if you are serious, well, now we can talk!
Listen, I could go on and on about all my credentials, my experience, give you a bunch of testimonials from past clients and many other things that VASTLY differentiate me from most trainers out there, but that's not really important. (Btw, you're more than welcome to ask me for all this information if you like ;)
What's important and what really differentiates me from the rest of the pack is how dedicated I am to getting you results and how much I truly care. I pay attention to the details.
From the very minute you hire me as your trainer to the very end of our training together, I make sure you get your money's worth and I do everything within my power to make certain you achieve your fitness goals.
Yes, I know anyone can say this, but I'm confident once you work me, you'll discover these claims to be very, very true. I challenge you to find someone like me out there that cuts through all the bs and talks directly to you like I am right now. I guarantee you won't. :)
If you follow everything I say for the duration of our training together, I'm 100 percent confident I can help you achieve all the fitness goals you've always dreamed of achieving.
Whether it be defined six-pack abs, lean + firm thighs, a tight & round butt, sculpted shoulders, sexy arms, a muscular back...and so on and so forth. If I've gotten my body and other clients' bodies into kick-ass shape over the past 10 years, there's no reason I can't do the same for YOU!
Now having said that, I think you'd be a dummy to not know it's gonna take a lot of hard work and effort on your part. Depending on your fitness level, you may take longer than others to achieve your goals, but that doesn't mean you can't achieve them. You just need to be patient and know I will help you every step of the way. Results WILL come. :)
So there you have it. I've said my peace, now it's time for you to take action. Go ahead and fill out a free consultation form or you can call 1-866-255-8221 and ask for Frank.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this and I look forward to helping you!
Sincerely,
Jim Coughlin
