I had a new client come in for their first session. We did a full 45 minute workout warm up, strength work, cooldown, the whole thing. Nothing extreme just a solid introductory session. At the end they looked at themselves in the mirror and asked when they’d “start seeing results”
I assumed they meant soreness, energy something like that. Nope. They meant visible muscle definition. After one workout.
When I explained that fitness takes consistency and time they got angry. Said I’d misled them. Demanded a full refund because they “didn’t look any different” When I refused, they accused me of false advertising and actually threatened to sue me.
A few days later I found out they’d posted about me on social media calling me a scammer who “promised results and delivered nothing” That was already frustrating enough but then came the part that really broke my brain.
They’re now advertising their own fitness program online. Claiming it delivers “instant results”
I’ve been doing this job long enough to know you can’t reason with everyone but this one still blows my mind. Some people don’t want reality they want magic and they want to blame someone when it doesn’t exist.
