    Let's play a game :)

    "Personal Training"
    A profession where you hide behind your computer and don't interact with people personally.

    "Coach"
    One who writes a program "custom" online program and emails it to you, and 40 other people

    "Influencer"
    Someone who knows good lighting, how to tag, and posts 3 variations of the same shot 20-30x per week (ab check, food, belfie)

    "Hater"
    Anyone who thinks online personal training is to fitness as click bait is to journalism

    "Value"
    Get free information off respected people in the trenches & ignore it, pay social media bosses for 6 week program, seek out aforementioned respect people to fix problems social media boss has created

    Bad day at the office or is this you coming out as the gym whisperer?!
    It amazes me how many 'fitness'/'nutrition' people do nothing but post pictures of sweet crap. Do these people really exist or is it a fabrication concocted by some jabba the hut lookalike bakery enthusiast?
    I had to laugh when I seen a gym selfie of a self proclaimed bodybuilding trainer and his girlfriend, thing was she was in great shape but his calves were no bigger than hers

    You do know that small calves are inversely corelated to what you can bench?
    I have massive calves .....

    Pretty sure I disprove that theory.

    "Fitness"

    A suffix at the end of a name, esp. on Instagram, that confers authority on all things fitness on the person whose name it is.

    That reminds me of Clint Dardens approach to proving hard gainers wrong that said they couldn't gain weight. It was the cake diet and it was real simple, have a slice of cake with every meal and make sure the cake is gone by the end of day 2.
    In fairness to him he guaranteed you would get fatter and the only 6 pack in his house would be in the fridge

    "nice muscles fat boy" - Just something the haters say because they haven't yet mastered the art of producing 6 pack abs on top of a distended stomach.

    These hard gaining begrudgers just don't have what it takes to consume their own body-weight in protein shakes and chicken breasts! Lambs all of them! :D

    Refeed noun - A meal which is roughly equal in weight to the person* consuming it. Must be eaten from a paper bag and/or a cardboard box. Delivery is optional.

    *Person....not people.
