Trainers, and coaches are becoming more prominent in television shows. What shows do you all watch and what effect do you think it has had on the personal training industry and health and fitness in general?

I liked the show Workout. I think it portrays the career as fun, exciting, challenging, emotionally draining. Don't know how great of trainers they actually are for most clients, but I think there is a thing or two I learned in there about the business. It was neat to see glimpses of Jackie's attitude, and approach- she's definitely a successful entrepreneur.

Other shows I know of but haven't seen include the Biggest Loser, the last 10 pounds. What else is there?

What shows feature conditioning specialists?
