Im guessing you are talking about the US version?
You may not be, im just assuming that due because I dont know the names of the Brit trainers and most of you are yanks ;-)
So, I cant comment on those, but I do know in our Brit version that is being aired currently, the trainers adopt an almost sort of boot camp approach, screeming at the contestants to train harder.
Not always a bad idea imo.
I think they key thing is, its primarily a tv programme, so it has to make good tv at all costs. A calm, sensible approach to training/diet/health etc wouldnt cut it due to our tv channels being full of this type of programme.
As to it being right/wrong, lets be honest, the only type of PT who will get on the show has to fit into that standard, meaning if they werent there, somebody else would fill their space.
If I could ask them one question.....
"Do you think the show portrays a healthy message to members of the public looking to lose weight?"
See what bull they spurt to that haha
