I couldn't care any less for grammar on the internetz. lol
Anyhow...this just tells us just how uneducated we are as a race on this subject. IMO schools should educate kids a little more on this...starting from elementary school with basics and then dig a little more into it in high school.
I read previously in a post in this thread that a trainer told someones Mom not to eat chicken because it can cause protein poisoning. I cannot begin to tell you just how important it would be to go and see this trainer and tell him he is full of ****. I would do this - beleive it or not, when you work with peoples health, accuracy is important and it insults the intelligence of other trainers around him.
My mom thinks she knows more than me on this subject. Even after telling her I have been reading/studying in this field for years now...she is 50 years old, 5'3" and weighs 125lbs and thinks she needs to cut weight, she has horrible musculature and her eating habits suck. She doesn't listen to me and relies on gospel she hears from her friends and strangers. She thinks she knows proper exercises and when I asked her to show them to me, I literally fell to the floor and started laughing. I suggested to her that I could visit her twice a week to get her in shape and she doesn't feel like it. I have to give it to her though, she at least doesn't smoke 3 packs a day anymore.
My Dad, ugh. He is a bottomless pit of a beer drinker and smokes 1.5 packs per day, his eating habits are a little better than my moms but it is still ****ing horrible. I tried to get him to workout as well and he doesn't think he needs it. My Dad, even though he drinks this much, still works and is a super responsible man, he just likes his beer a lot.
My roommate eats kraft diner 90 times per month, does not workout and plays WoW 10 hours per day. Tried getting him to workout, but NO, again, this one also believes he does not need it.
The girls I know, hate working out, one of them gained a **** load of weight since I last saw her....disappointing...
One of my co-workers is in decent shape, my bosses wife (our secretary) is the only one in my immediate existence that has good eating habits and a good workout regimen. The other co-worker is obese, but he is doing well, he is always talking to me about how he is eating and how he is losing weight, he has lost nearly 20-30 pounds within a couple months...soon...hopefully he will come to the gym with me. My boss is probably just a little over his healthy weight...he his somewhat slim....if he wanted to...he could go to the gym and transform himself easily...
People need to wake the **** up and smell the roses, JESUS!
