There are some good ones out there. Many bluffers too unfortunately!

Some of the before and afters are ridiculous.

Of course someone is going to look different with their back to you standing on the ground compared to being covered in fake tan their back still to you but hanging off a squat rack.

But how did we live before social media and PT's? Proper soap box stuff
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

There is a PT around our way and he posts a lot of his before and afters.  Yes a noticeable difference at the time but you see  the same people less than 6 months later they look the same as before.  Motivation will get you through the short term blast but you need discipline for it to be of benefit in the long term.

It's like anything I suppose; theres ones at it who are knowledgable and worth every penny who genuinely transform peoples lives. They are earning serious money so theres always copycat bluffers trying the same thing.

LC is right, no use living like a monk for a few months and getting in serious shape then because it's too restrictive a diet throwing it all away and piling the weight back on. Only way to go is a diet/workout plan you actually enjoy and will stick to. Need to fit your chocolate/sweets/crisps or whatever your vice is in moderation.

Is it a prerequisite to be a PT now that you have to sit in an ice bath for a few minutes every morning and tell the world about it?

All seem to be at it. Genuinely wouldn't be a bad thing for you for a variety of reasons.

If he swears by them I think I'll give it a swerve.

I'm sceptical to be honest. Seems to be the latest fad.
