| 2009-01-14 | Brad | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I gave him all 10's because of his specific and "personal" response to me, instead of it being a generic one. When we ask a question, we are hoping to get a personal answer, instead of one that says, "just don't do so many, in my book I recommend....". He was very clear and his response time to ever my second follow-up question was great. Thank you Rick and AllExperts! |

Expertise
ATTENTION: I will not be taking any more questions from kids, ages 17 & under, through this site. If any kid wants some help, their parent must ask the question. Plese be specific, no more "I need to gain weight and get a 6-pack, pleeez help, thanx" types of questions. I will no longer reply to these. I can help you with most questions regarding strength training for a wide variety of sports, primarily for the youth, high school, college, and recreational athlete levels. I can also assist with general fitness concerns. I also will not respond to generic "I need to lose weight fast, please help' type of questions either. This is a waste of my time. You need a strategy, not a program alone, for this type of assistance. Also, I DO NOT GIVE PROGRAMS through this service. Do not ask for any program, please, because chances are that I know nothing about you to even begin creating a program. As a professional, I need many pieces of information to even begin constructing something for my client, and this sometimes takes up to 45 minutes in a face-to-face visit. There's just no way I can do it in one email! Thank you. If you need just new cardio workouts, you can subscribe to my mobile phone text messaging workout service, FiText, at http://fitext.speeddialcoach.com
