I Can't Stand These - Part 2...


I didn't think I'd write part until April, but I just witnessed a segment that triggered me.

I can't stand...

"Don't eat this healthy food." What!? Don't eat a healthy food? Why do people say this? I have never heard a dietitian utter these words. You know why? Because dietitians know what they are talking about. Other individuals are already up in arms about not eating on healthy foods. Now, healthy foods are on the "Not Really Healthy List"

Well, that's enough on that topic ๐Ÿ’ฏ.

Shadyness as lack of professional integrity. Well, here is what I am referring to: In the beginning of my career, my personal training director and another trainer had a relationship. She gave him a client who purchased a 20-pack of sessions while the rest of us had to scrounge for a 20. Yes, I know that type of mess happens in every profession. Well, some professions face more scrutiny. 

It's frustrating when your director or supervisor shows favoritism to this degree. What does that say about the work environment? 

Doing exercises just cause...just to get a burn. There are orders to exercise ๐Ÿ’ชthat, in my opinion, strength & conditioning specialists follow the best and rightfully so. They care about the muscle group that may fatigue because s&c's know you will reuse the muscle group again and they want to optimize your performance.

Sometimes, other pros in the field do not care about order. They will fatigue a joint and have you work with that fatigued joint through a couple more segments of exercise.

Why?

My joint is done. I do not have the force output left. It's done! Resume another day. Done, done...DONE! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’ฏ
