@exoregonsoldier I'm not sure there's a thing a client could do at this point that would surprise me, but being hit on when guys have met my husband and he's in the building doesn't even raise an eyebrow anymore.

@loveisgod7788 It reminded me of a client I had a year or so ago. Young guy, in his mid 20s, who for some reason thought I was in to him. Answer: not so much. I work with guys who have amazing athletic ability who have “smoking hot bodies” and egos to match allllll the time. Dime a dozen...

@357girl Sure! I've had luck with the Levi's Signature line both modern and curvy. I own both of the following styles: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B073XK18RM http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H3EB82E/ What I like about them is they don't look like jeggings, have actual pockets and don't stretch out as I...

@flc7 If it makes you feel better, I once asked a guy out and his response was "why would I want to go out with you?"

@thehindubrahmin I coach clients who are concerned about weight and body fat, body composition and strength and dealing with scales doesn’t bother me. I’m able to help them just fine. I’m not scale averse, this is what works for me. I don’t weigh myself because the number doesn’t help me with...

@loveisgod7788 I go out all the time, thanks!

@onbrokenwings I appreciate it, but I don’t really feel like “try to not sexually harass or alienate the customers” should qualify as beyond expectation customer service.

@markvs As a gym owner, I 100% would want to know if my employee was using my business as a dating service because that’s not the environment I want my clients to have to deal with. Please let the gym management know. Everyone should have a gym environment where they feel free to work out...

@lobocairn Before I can help you, a couple of questions: 1. What are your physical goals? Are you trying to maintain weight, gain weight, lose weight? Change body composition? Fuel athleticism? 2. How did you come up with your current diet? What do you think your current macro/calorie breakdown...

@nojnoj I’m in Massachusetts. I left the south permanently and the only thing I’ve missed is warm weather beaches covered in sand.

@jonnylugs I didn’t accuse you of having non nutritious food. I used Oreos as an example of a food you could eat at surplus which would yield different body composition results than if you ate say, steak, eggs, and kale to the same caloric surplus. I saw elsewhere in this thread you say you eat...

@jonnylugs You’ve got a lot of potential issues going on: You need to be committed to eating a caloric surplus and hitting protein goals. (Body composition-wise, your body will look and perform more how you want with higher protein intake than carb intake. You can eat caloric surplus on Oreo...

@delling1000 And to add, I’m sure you’re aware that in setting up negative airflow rooms, in addition to airtight rooms funneling air, workers in the room have to wear full PPE. I’m just mentioning this because we’re literally discussing how people in gyms are working out in a space with open...

@delling1000 Negative flow rooms in hospitals are engineered as such and require doors closed and air is moved directionally by design. There is no similarity between AirDynes, Rowers and a BigAssFan circulating air around a gym and possible out the door and the air flow design of a negative...

@crismate88 I wasn’t comfortable with that as a solution for my own gym space. It could mitigate it or it could exacerbate it. I guess the way I come down on it is: if you can have access to equipment and an environment appropriate to open gym doors, you can work out outside and remove the...

@sunnysurfgirl I believe any exercise that gets someone off the couch is great. I don’t have a single opinion on “boxing” as an exercise that is negative. I am in favor of working out in ways that fuel your passion and I don’t mind if it’s Zumba, CrossFit, competitive double Dutch jump rope...

@anchoredbygrace Well, I don’t like to see businesses shooting themselves in the foot or people losing their community, but it’s always nice to hear from people who agree: if my job and service is to always do what is best for your health and wellness, then anything I do counter to that (like...

@stthomaschristian In the beginning of the pandemic, it was suspected a top source of transmission was contamination by touch. In that version of events, the concern to gyms was that everyone touched common equipment. As a gym owner, before states were closing gyms or businesses, I sat down and...

@p1saint2 38 cis female, just hit my 2 year old CrossFit anniversary. Lost 85 pounds in a year doing 4x a week CrossFit. The year prior, I worked 4x a week with a personal trainer and also did an hour on the elliptical or treadmill, gained several percentages of body fat so I can definitely say...

@cepha Please let them know: their answer may be that they have a certain clientele who looks for “BootCamp Betty” Tuesdays at 5 and direct you to their other classes. If they don’t at least suggest a specification of the “intensity and language” of the class in a published schedule or have the...
