Rant Mode ON:

You know another thing that annoys me? Fitness Internet Marketers who tell you there are SECRETS - you know the secrets they say you're only going to be able to BUY this ONE time, at a discounted rate until 11:59pm, - to getting in great shape. There are hucksters everywhere now, all preying on beginners and people's hope.

Don't get me wrong, there's a lot of good programs out there, designed by smart people, and I'm not against anyone making money trust me, but there's a lot MORE crap (like that isagenix crap the other day - really, selling fiber for fat loss?). At least put out something legit and effective for crying out loud... read more 0 comments

Not everyone knows that the fitness industry is ripe for marketing, hucksters, scams and fad, after fad, after fad, which is exactly why it's so ripe for the sale of hope. And unfortunately, the blame for becoming consumers of these 'products' really can't be placed (too much anyway, since some things should just scream BS) on the consumer themselves.
