I'm nearing the end of my chest/tri workout today when some dude walks up to me. He introduces himself as a trainer and goes to hand me his card. I didn't reach out for it because as he is handing it to me, he says "Hi, I just wanted to come over and introduce myself. I'm a trainer and you look like you know what you're doing. Your upper body looks sick, but your lower body could use some work. I thought I could show you some exercises."
MF-er, are you kidding me? Look, I KNOW my lower body needs work. I've been training it twice a week for the last two years. So I'm not insulted that he pointed it out because it's a known fact. HOWEVER, bitch you don't know me you little friggin' twig (he looked about 5'10"-6', 170lbs-ish?) You don't know my diet and you don't know that I am currently doing 50 min cardio 7 days/week. You think showing me some of your gay ass exercises is going to make a huge difference?? I squat, I leg press, I deadlift, I lunge... I do it all. What the F are you possibly going to show me that's going to make such a big difference, tough guy?
So I know I must have given him the death stare because I can't pull a poker face to save my life and he had me fuming. So I told him my boyfriend's a trainer and that I don't need the help, plus I'm training for a competition so I know what I'm doing. He seemed a little apprehensive after that and wasn't sure to give me the card or not, so I took it, told him my name but declined his offer because I did legs yesterday (and even if I didn't, I didn't like how he approached me so I wouldn't have wanted his advice anyway!)
Turns out, he works in Brooklyn but came to NJ to visit his mom so he trained at my NYSC today. Well, shit... if you think my lower body looks bad now, you should have seen me 3 months and 15+lbs ago. What a douchebag! I was so insulted... I can take and I respect and appreciate constructive criticism 100%! But for those to be the first words out of his mouth without trying to learn about my background first, I thought was in really poor taste. Who is he to assume?
PS: When I got in the lockerroom, I ripped the card up and threw it in the trash! :satan:

Yeah, he needed it... assclown!
Unless he was just trying to "prove" his credibility by showing me his card? Either way, he is an epic fail.
