Stupid Person of the Week February 11-17 Twerpy Trainer Guy

Stupid Person of the Week February 11-17

This weeks "Stupid Person of the Week" is twerpy trainer guy!

My family has been sick the last week, so I had to call in and canceled a session with my personal trainer. (I have been trying to lose weight for the last 10 years and thought I would give this a try). I called well in advance and let him know that I was not feeling well and I would not be coming for my session. I thought that this was acceptable and courteous. However, after heading back to the gym after feeling better a day or two later this guy was a complete jerk. I saw him at the desk and said hello... he did not respond. When he was working with another client and would pass me he would shoot me death rayswith his eyes or just snicker. What the hell??? I am new to the gym scene and still not super comfortable being there and this guy wants to be a dick? I am almost done with my package of sessions and *IF* I sign up again I will be requesting a different trainer, I find this guy highly unprofessional (he once showed up to a training session majorly hungover and still a little drunk) and rude. I may be fat, but that does not give anyone the right to treat me like a lower life form. By the way this guy is not even super fit himself, he looks like a white Irkel, but less cool! Thanks for letting me vent.

oh my gosh, how rude! i would definitely sign up with another trainer, and i would actually complain to the gym's manager about that trainer's attitude. yes, your trainer is there to kick your butt and work you hard, but he/she is also there to ENCOURAGE you because after all, you paid for the sessions so it shows you are more committed than just the regular gym member. there have been many times i have rescheduled with my trainer even for little things such as having a last minute dinner plan with family, and she has understood every single time.
don't let that jerk of a trainer discourage you from continuing trainer sessions. there are plenty of other trainers out there who are genuine and truly there to help people, not make fun of them and make themselves feel better!
