I have read many articles in what to look for a in a great trainer, but what about what to look for a a really bad trainer?
MMM...
theres food for thought....
 The problem is when a client hires a trainer they think well they must know what they are doing right?
Uh well, no that's not always the case....
Here are some  red flags that suggest you may want another trainer.....

• They show up late or not at all for your session...
• They are disorganized
• They sit down or lie down on the job (seriously I have seen this).
• All they do is count your reps..really?
• They talk about their love life, and everything else under the sun...(your not paying to listen to your trainers woes).
• It's more of a social gathering...
• If you need a modification and they look at you like a deer in head lights.....
• If they give every client the exact same workout....
• They workout with you....
• They know everything....(run  for the hills)
• They have no testimonials (not just made up ones but real people)
• They have no liability insurance
• They have a "degree" from 20 years ago and call themselves up to date....(not).
• Thye never change your workout
• If they say "I saw this exercise on the Biggest Loser" let's  try it out....
• If you ask them a question about a exercise and they have no answer that makes sense or a reason behind what they are doing.
• If they train you like them....(ex. a football player giving the same exercises to a 75 year old woman that he does, prolly not a great idea).

Well there is a few warning signs for you....when in doubt use common sense, its your body and your life. If it does not feel right is probably is not.
