Alright so a bit of a rant here;
I'll start off by saying that I understand it's 24hr Fitness, but it's still a gym. The people employed there are representing the gym. A gym should embody fitness, therefor the employees should be expected to be fit, as well as knowledgeable in training, nutrition, etc.
I don't care how much they are getting paid, they should be reasonably fit and knowledgeable. They are responsible for showing people how to train properly and advising them on thier nutrition in some cases. Hell some people even pay these "personal trainers" for thier service.
The employees/personal trainers at this gym are the opposite of all that. I shit you not 10/15 of them are straight up obese, 3/15 skinny af. So 2/15 barely look like they've picked up a weight in thier life.
I walk in the front door and get greeted by 3 cows and 1 anorexic boy. Where the fukk am I? McDonald's or the fukkin gym??? Wtf is this shit? They turn around and thier shirt reads; "Master Trainer". What? Really? Yeah, ok.
These personal trainers standing right by thier clients as they 1/2 squat and not correcting them. Having them do ridiculous "exercises" that are completely unnecessary, spending more time stretching them out and using the drill massager (or whatever the **** its called) on every muscle (or where they would be) than doing anything else.
What is this shit? Is this fitness? Is this what fitness looks like now? Are there no standards anymore? Anywhere? What is going on??? I just don't fukkin get it.
