Ryan Seacrest’s contest on best YouTube fitness trainers was just a popularity contest and thats not all that useful. Who REALLY has the best fitness advice on YouTube? From amongst my peers, I have chosen three trainers who I think need special recognition. Mike Chang aka sixpackshortcuts, Jeff Seid, and Freelee the banana girl — who is the number one fitness “expert” on YouTube???
If you have not figured this out by now, this video is very sarcastic. I do NOT think these are good fitness trainers, in fact, two of them are the worst of the worst in my opinion — Mike Chang and Jeff Seid. Mike Chang is a snake oil salesman just out to make his millions by telling people the lies the want to hear and its why he is number one in my fitness hall of shame. Jeff Seid is included because of the damage he is doing to the fragile egos of millions of teens with his ‘natty aesthetic’ … and his advice is just plain stupid. Jeff’s stupid advice isnt nearly as bad as Mike Chang (sixpackshortcuts) maliciously deceptive advice. Then there is Freelee who I included not because I find her fitness advice all that bad, in fact, some of it I like, but because she was so fun to imitate. Freelee’s heart is in the right place, unlike Jeff Seid and Mike Chang, she is passionate about fitness and really wants to help people. In many ways, Freelee and I are very similar in our passion for health and fitness — we just differ our approach to strength, health, and fitness. I do find Freelee’s fruititarian thing a bit alarming and personally do not think it represents a healthy diet despite how it seems to have helped her. But again, unlike Mike and Jeff, her heart is truly in the right place — she wants to help others as her dietary changes helped her. I personally feel that vegan or vegetarian represents far healthier alternatives to fruititarianism and they are much more compatible with strength training and bodybuilding as well. Again, the only reason I included Freelee was that I found her so fun to imitate, sorry Freelee, I made fun of myself in this video too so dont feel bad 🙂
