That should be a shame. I hope that would happen only in the US

Here's my story - I started lifting weights, and it became not only my job, but my career. I just know it. I feel it. Each day I look back, and I know that today is the day that I am going to be better than yesterday and worse than tomorrow. I have gone from just lifting weights, to teaching people who lift weights, to teaching people who teach lifting weights.

Now here's the question: How do people know how good I am, when they have nothing to campare me to?

If people that have no clue just magically disappear, then I'm left with a couple of problems:
- having too much work that I cannot handle by myself.
- having to compete with you guys.

Sure I think that some would have great benefit if I were the last trainer on earth. And I know that there are people that will actually feel worse with me, than with their previous know-nothing-of-eccentric-contractions guy.


Face it! In every area thre are the guys that are good or get better...and the guys that suck or get worse. Doctors, surgeons, TV-repairmen, construction workers, judges...everywhere!

Just choose your side.
