If you’ve spent even one minute searching YouTube for health and training tips, you already know that there are approximately 437 million fitness channels — collectively referred to as “YouTube Fitness.” Needless to say, the quality of the information offered varies greatly. There is everything from sound advice from qualified professionals to outright scams.
I won’t focus on the scams here (maybe in a future post). If you’re reading my blog, you’re probably an adult already, and your own “spidey-sense” will tell you when someone’s a phony or just trying to sell you another junk supplement.
Instead, I want you to consider the fact that just because someone is dispensing correct information does not mean their information is correct for you. I’ve made this mistake myself. I’ve followed diet plans that didn’t work only to realize later that the plan was designed for guys half my age who wanted to be competitive bodybuilders. Ditto with workout regimens that might have seriously injured me.
So, before doing anything and everything Trainer X says, consider not only the source but the audience, and whether you’re part of it or not.
Next, why you are not a snowflake. Until then, thanks for reading,
