Best personal trainers in the world

January 6th, 2010

The personal trainers below are who I consider to be the best personal trainers in the world today.  These personal trainers heavily influenced me since I started in the personal training industry, they have been involved in personal training for decades and I would imagine will be personal training for decades to come.

Charles Glass is the most famous bodybuilding personal trainer I can think of.  Charles Glass was a competitive bodybuilder himself and now trains many of the worlds professional bodybuilders including Flex Wheeler, Chris Cormier, Dennis James and Gunter Schlierkamp.  Bodybuilding knowledge is something that takes decades to perfect and Charles Glass has been around for many of those decades of bodybuilding.  I couldn’t think of anyone who could give more accurate bodybuilding advice than him.  Charles Glass works out of Venice Beach the mecca of bodybuilding and spends most of his days standing side by side the pros guiding them with every detail to success at the Olympia competition.  Charles Glass does a lot of work for Bodybuilding.com where you can see him in video workouts demonstrating his personal training knowledge.  Charles Glass is also a regular writer for the bodybuilding magazine Muscular Development which he writes a monthly column.

Charles Poliquin is a Candian strength training coach who has trained many athletes including Donovan Bailey, the gold medal sprinter.  Charles Poliquin has a B.S.C in Kinesiology and a M.S.C in exercise physiology.  Charles Poliquin regularly writes for T Nation online.  Charles has published several books that have been translated into many different languages.  Charles created his own courses for personal training that are now highly regarded by personal trainers around the world.  Charles spends most of his time traveling around the world giving fitness seminars, personal training athletes and running his fitness business.

Victor Costa I only recently found out about Victor Costa when browsing Youtube workouts.  I saw Victor Costa on youtube and his bodily condition and workout principles shocked me, this is a man who performs each rep to as close to 100% perfection as you can get, isolating each muscle to the fullest.  Victor Costa has hugely influenced my own training and displays the way weight training should really be performed which sadly 90% of people who are involved in bodybuilding don’t do.  Victor Costa is now highly regarded by people around the world as one of best personal trainers in the world.  Victor received the Honorary lifetime certification by the International sports science association for his long standing contributions to the sport of bodybuilding.
