How to tell if your personal trainer is a waste of money

I am a personal trainer and group fitness instructor and I have always disliked most personal trainers for some of these reasons. Even the ones that spend the money to get these expensive (worthless) certifications, they really know little to nothing or even care about the health and well being of their clients. I have always believed that personal training is a holistic expereince, because weight loss is not only about the numbers. It is the culmination of the physical, mind, and spirit. We need all of these things to become truly healthy. This is why i post so many differing blog posts to help people get a complete picture of what health should be. So check out this article and choose the right person for you.
