Have any of you ever dragged or forced someone to go to the gym with you? My niece is probably the most laziest, spoiled, materialistic and undisciplined kid that I know. All she does is talk on the phone and texts all day. Doesn't help around the house or do ____. She'll be turning 16 years old soon and I am seriously going to make her go to Gold's Gym with me and put her on a workout program.

Do it Phil. :clap Hate lazy spoiled people. She needs to learn about discipline and working hard to achieve something. And it's time to get these kids of their phones.

I use to man, I guess I would with family, but more or less direct family... I've pretty much turned over on trying with people to be honest, some people you just can't turn over or they make upteen excuses, don't research and are just plain undetermined...it's not for everyone is the way I look at it anymore.

I know I should try to inspire but it's just been too many people, knowing too many people and how it is...so it's just there, take it or leave it. :D (Mainly the reason I never wanted to be a personal trainer, I can't take failing and giving up, if it's just me I know I won't but someone else on the other hand...I can't be sure of.)

I agree with Ski, I used to drag my son, but now I don't bother. He makes all kinds of excuses when I call to see if wants to come, but when I don't and just go gets mad. It's BS.

You are either in or you aren't !

Just go GET SOME ! ! !
 
I've tried a couple times, but got over it. Nothing like having someone there ruining (whether trying to or not) your gym experience.

I like group workouts though. At my previous job about 6 of us would workout a few times a week after work. Even though its not the normal time I like to workout being with friends and doing something healthy at the same time was pretty fun.
 
Hey guys, I figured I'd step in on this thread since I lift. Only been doing it for almost a yr but I love it! Just wish I seen more progress in myself

Welcome JD! Just work hard and set achievable/realistic goals. Your expectations will change. I've been going at it for 2.5 years consistently now and are nowhere near where I would like to be, but looking back at old photos, I've come a LONG way.
 
Thanks man. I mean from a yr ago, I had the chest of a 4 yr old boy and its comin in now, but its not where Id like it to be ya kno? Shoulda started working out a couple of yrs ago :lol

Just be consistent and work hard and I guarantee you'll see results. I know it may seem like empty words, but it truly is key. Just don't get frustrated and turn to the darkside by taking shortcuts if you know what I mean.

Gosh, 16 is a little late in the game. 8 is more like it. I don't know what kind of pull you have with your niece, but the best advice I can offer is to somehow make it inspiring and fun. Otherwise, good luck, because she will be really non-compliant and give you a lot of backtalk if you try to force or even pressure her. Maybe there is a celebrity she admires who works out. Maybe an incentive can be offered, like dinner after, or a movie. Yes, I know you should not have to bribe, but you need SOME way of forming a totally positive association with working out. Maybe dance classes or Ice skating or something.

Why do this when all you're doing is wasting tons of money every month and beating up your liver?

Just buy figures/statues and drink instead!!

Yea I've thought about roids but I mean who hasn't ya kno? It would be an easy way out for sure but the side effects dont feel worth it to me. Im 19 and still growing and to take stuff like that now would destroy my body :lol Im all natural atm but usually have some creatine and some NO in my system but thats it other then the protein. My biggest challenge to overcome is my diet. Im 5' 10'' & 150 on a good day and would like to pack on about 20 pounds of solid muscle but my diet just destroys that. I just cant eat as much as I need too to get there cause 1.) Im just never even hungry 2.) I dont have the time to eat all day to get my calorie intake & 3.) I truthfully just dont have the kind of money to be eating 8 or 9 meals a day :lol Im looking into the food substitute tho, you guys heard anything about that?

Anyways Ill stop with my story, I just thought Id let you guys know where Im at and what not :lol & I enjoyed all the feedback ive gotten so far so thank you for that. Oh and I guess Ill post these since its a fitness thread but this is my progress since last sep.

The first attachment is back when I first started in Sep and the second one was around mid Feb
& the 3rd was taken not to long ago, still loonngggg ways to go!!:


As you can see, the chest finally started to come in, now to just get it bigger (Thats what she said!) :lol

You're doing great man. Get your macro's and your calorie intake right and all will be fine. You could divide your meals over 6 times a day if you're having problems finding time to eat. Meals don't have to be expensive and remember that it's not important that you're not hungry. Eat that _____ up! :wink1:

_____!!! where is your phone number!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
One thing I did like about training people is I felt like an artist or a sculptor. You see these people with not so great of a body, but who have LOTS of potential. I just like to watch them grow in body and in spirit. For me that's a thrill. Like a sculptor taking a piece of clay and molding it into something fantastic and inspiring.

This is why I want to train my niece. She was smart, a fantastic athlete and very talented, but somehow she just lost her way. She has lots of potential to be great and I want to give that back to her.
