In this episode, Dr. Armstrong discusses the often-asked questions of “How do you find a good trainer?” and “How do you spot snake oil and charlatans in fitness?”. Both are excellent questions and warrant consideration.
Dr. Armstrong discusses his thoughts on the qualities of good trainers and why trainers are not necessarily good trainers just because they have great bodies, do “cool stuff” on Instagram, are former athletes, or train collegiate/professional athletes. He also adds his twist on the YouTube video by strength coach, Alexander Bromley, titled: “3 Ways to Spot a Charlatan.”
