I don't really know where else to share this but. . .
I've lurked for a long time and I've looked at a lot of youtube videos or different types of lifts to get an idea of what is what. I've been doing this for years and I finally got the courage to hire a personal trainer and join a gym other than Planet Fitness.
I really wanted to start off by doing Stronglifts 5x5 because I read up on it and it seems like a good program for beginners to get a few lifts perfected in form and build a foundation of strength. . .
My personal trainer basically laughed at me. . .saying that I can't even lift 5 lbs and that I need to leave all the thinking and notion marketing training to him. I'm kinda embarrassed and deflated. I'll go back tomorrow but I'm just a bit discouraged.
Thanks for letting me vent.
