I want some extra side cash. Any PT bros on /fit? What is the best cert to get (U.S.)
>>41452838
Curious as well.
I've been personal training for about 3-4 years.
1. NASM is probably the most recognized in the U.S. There are other ones (ACE, NESTA, etc) and if you're working at a commercial gym, it really doesn't matter which one you get because most gyms don't care as long as you're certified.
2. It's a job that gives what you put into it. It takes time to build up and the only way to build up is to market and make the best of the what clients you get in order to show people you know what you're doing. Don't expect to get a large steady flow of clients in your first few months.
3. Weekend certifications and a six pack are simply not enough to justify being a personal trainer that people shell hundreds or thousands of dollars on. Educate yourself beyond that of the ordinary P.T. (no, the sticky doesn't count) because there will be a time where you need to know things that can potentially earn you more clients or save the ones you have.

Thanks for the info. 80% of pts I have run across are absolute shit and people still pay them so I figure I should get myself a cut of that. How much a week you make from pt and how many hrs/wk you put in?

How viable is it to never step the gym and only swim? I have a compressed ulnear nerve and cant lift weights, but I have aspirations of becoming swole! So I have decides to get on gear (test) and just swim swim swim. What should I expect? Is it possible achieve physique of pic related sith just test and swimming?
>>41452307
>my elbow hurts so I can't lift any weights
>>41452307
The best looking swimmers at my uni (who are also the ones who represent my uni at competitions) all lift.
>>41452379
It doesnt hurt, when I flex my elbow my arm goes numb and reduced bloodflow because compressed nerve cant send a signal to the other end making it believe that I dont have a fucking arm and further weighted flexing will effectively kill my nerves which in part will make me look like a 3rd stage krokodil junkie with full blown forearm necrosis.
Do you think gladiator or knight could hold their own in terms of strength to us.
Heck, how could they hold there own in terms of overall fitness?
Put in a pit against ancient warriors would you have a chance?
Whats the most fit activity.
Well are these guys trying to out bench us or kill us? Cause in a duel to the death my money's on anyone not born in this pussy-ass century.
>>41452209
Do you really think you can compete with someone who has been doing physical work and training for all of their lives?
>inb4 people in the past were manlets
Thats only a few hundred years ago, people in Roman ages were tall
if you're manlet you're weaker
if you're not then you're bigger and stronger
gotta remember humans were midgets back then and the omg big people were 5'7

Close grip hammer curls? Are they anatomically safe? I can't find any instructional videos.
And what does this variation work?
To be clear, it's where you're in a neutral position with your wrist and the weight is near your dick.
>>41452129
I hear it works the peak on your bicep and helps with grip strength a little bit.
Try it I dunno. Why the fuck would they not be safe?
>>41452129
what are you talking about
seriously
>>41452144
you cannot work the "peak" of your bicep. The bicep just gets bigger or the muscles deep to it (brachialis) get bigger to push the bicep out more
i heard this works the triceps a lot i wouldnt do these if i were you
So /fit/
What did you have for breakfast? Also please indicate whether you are bulking, cutting, or maintaining.
2 eggs (in butter)
3oz kielbasa
1 packet of instant oatmeal
1 black tea
Cutting
Looking to learn new breakfast choices.
2 eggs scrambled
Natty peanut butter toast
I forgot to bring my Greek yogurt and cottage cheese...
I guess you could call it bulking but I'm just following what my brother does and he's pretty jacked
>>41452114

Pot noodle beef and tomato flavour with maybe some kinda wholegrain breakfast biscuit thing and a banana and apple, started bringing just a portion of chicken aswell.
>>41452158
forgot to say, was cutting.
if I go with my mom to get a back massage at some asian parlor, are they going to start touching my dick at the end?
I don't have money, my mom would have to tip them for jerking me off, I don't wanna deal with all that

>>41452071

>not treating your mom to a massage/ fingerblast while you get your cock jerked
You're a shit-tier son
What are some techniques you guys have for winning fights? Any way to absolutely put someone out other than going for the throat?
Crotch shots, eye gouging and headbutts to the nose are all effective ways to get people to avoid fucking with you.
>>41451857
if you are clinched, bite his throat
>>41451857
Don't hesitate. At all.
