Friend ripped off! Trainer selling the Dave Palumbo diet as his own?

[swingslammer]

Bad shot, it is about 3 months now and his had is still numb? He is lucky he didn't lose his arm.

[Curt James]

Good Lord.

People talking shit but to be honest that looks like the standard diet i see being passed around by many gurus. Its not horrible but def needs some tweaking.

The diet looks fine to me, considering its a starting point.

So if you wouldnt mind could you expand on the diet in terms of what you think the next step would be? You dont have to if you dont feel like it lol.

I am just saying you can't really make a "good diet" from the beginning cause you have no idea how people respond to certain foods or macros. For instance, that diet would make me look like pure dog shit with all of that fat. But some people would probably look/feel great. So the next step with have to be based on whatever happens at step 1...

OOOOOH ok i got you.

[GENESIS]

I dont get it.

First you say its a rip off of the Dave Palumbo diet and then you accuse it of being a cookie cutter diet?

Are you saying Dave only gives people cookie cutter diets? Or are you saying because they recommend the same types of foods that he stole his diet?

The Diet doesnt seem like a big deal for someone who has a fast metabolism, and Dave didnt discover the macadamia nut... so....

[Provo82]

Agreed. Whoever sold that diet to your friend needs to refund those funds. Unless the so-called trainer has a lot to offer in addition to the (what definitely looks like a) stolen diet, I'd push for that money back.

he didnt even bother to paraphrase the damn thing! all the kid had to do was type that diet into google and see he was robbed. his time as a coach wont last long before people realize hes scamming people.

No, im not saying Dave does cookie cutter diets. This other trainer stole one of Palumbos diets and is selling it to everyone else.

Thats EXACTLY how i figured it out Phil. Looked kinda familiar, and so i googled it, BAM. it never said anywhere Palumbo, it just seemed like his keto style.

How do you "steal" a diet really though.

Trainers often give similar diets....who's to say where they got it.

It's a hard sell to say it's stolen.

Semantics.

Copy and paste?

As I said before, unless the so-called trainer has a lot to offer in addition to the diet, I'd push for any money back from the guy. They sold what could have been acquired at zero cost online.

Otoh, maybe the buyer has learned a life lesson here. Somethingsomething emptor. :-/

[Rambo2]

I work with Dave and this is a very blatant copy and paste, I think it's OK to pretty much give people the same diet for every word and the formatting to be exactly the same is a bit cheeky!
