The more you learn, the less you know and the harder it is to add new information to your skill set. The first few years as a fitness professional are fairly easy. Every piece of information is bright and new and you can double what you know in a few weekends. There does come a breakpoint, however, where you either grow into that person who can stay with a beginners mind or you become that old fitness dog that hasnt learned any new tricks since he read Arnolds bodybuilding book. Becoming a master trainer can be extremely hard work since you cant progress after a certain point unless you are willing to let go of what you knew and embrace what you dont know. Many fit pros just slow down, rely on old tricks, avoid workshops where they might be challenged on their thinking and eventually become someone who used to be somebody. If you cant grow to the point that everything you know is wrong, then you will never be right again.
