    If he had a real trainer,

    he wouldn't have had most of these problems.

    While I hate to agree with someone dogging out Prime as they have been very, very good to this rookie, I can also admit when a criticism is valid. In this case, I can't argue with your statement at all. Alec appeared to have been severely hamstrung by his trainer's inexperience at training. That being said I don't believe Prime is alone in having issues with trainers. Any large training company is going to have problems in that area as it is simply an inevitability due to numbers.

    No matter where you go, you'll find people who train because they want then extra money. I got lucky there and had a trainer that liked to train, had a ton of experience, and wanted the money. I learned how to use my hours correctly, about IFTA, and a little of the business side of it.

    I have not heard from him except when he got a trainer, we attended orientation together.

    I can't say I had the best situation either, it was a long hard road traveled. Not to hijack his thread, but happy to say I made it through and trifecta'd.

    Wish you the best of luck 'alec'
