David Barton, the muscleman entrepreneur behind [link href=’http://www.davidbartongym.com/’ style=’color:#0000FF;text-decoration:underline;’ link_updater_label=’external’ target=’_blank’]DavidBartonGym—a hip brand with facilities in four major cities, is in search of a personal trainer for his trendy Astor Place location in NYC. And the competition for the coveted position is fierce: Besides impressing Barton, job hopefuls must also impress his cat. To see how applicants fare, tune in to MTV’s Hired at 4 PM this Tuesday. In the meantime, check out our chat with Barton to find out what his first job interview was like and how he became the fitness guru he is today. – Continue Reading Below—EMILY HEBERTTell us about your first gym experience. I was about 11 or 12. I played sports but I’d never been to the gym. One of my sisters had this boyfriend who was this big guy and he was my idol. You know, he rode motorcycles, had tattoos—he was like the big brother I never had. He took me to this dingy, greasy, stinky basement gym. You could almost smell the muscles ripping apart. It was hot with dripping pipes and the machines were rusty. Have you ever seen a gym in a prison movie? This gym would make that gym look like a fancy hotel gym. But I fell in love with it and didn’t want to leave. My sister’s boyfriend couldn’t get me to go! It was what I’d been looking for my whole life and it was so cool. It felt like home and the guys there kind of took me under their wing. I started doing weightlifting and bodybuilding. And back then bodybuilding and weightlifting were such fringe things. It was like this underground cult. There were cops working out next to drug dealers but everyone was okay in the gym. It was this real subculture. Do you remember who hired you for your first job as a personal trainer? Oh my god, of course I do! I had two jobs when I started out. You know carlavermaat , I was going to go to graduate school. I went to Cornell University and then I was planning on getting a PhD in organizational behavior—I don’t even know what that is today high quality replica handbag , but it seemed like a cool thing to say I was doing. Despite having this Ivy League education, though, all I really wanted to do was be in the gym. I saw some ads for trainers and ended up getting two jobs, one at New York Health and Racquet Club and one at this place called Sports Training Institute. In order to get those jobs I kind of had to BS my way in there and say I had experience. I mean, I’d minored in nutrition and studied exercise physiology. I was also a bodybuilder. But I kind of had to talk my way into it. Once I got the jobs I loved them—I wanted every shift I could get because all I wanted to do was be in the gym. They paid four bucks an hour and I would’ve just done it all day and all night if I could’ve. If that had been enough for me to live on, I’d still be there! – Continue Reading BelowYour cat startles one of the candidates on Hired. Do you use your feline to help screen potential employees? The cat who’s in the show, his name is Vanilla. There’s another cat in the office named Tokhes that I found on a construction site. Those are my office cats—I also have cats at home. I have a lot of cats! Tokhes is a Yiddish word for ass. I named him that because when you scratch him on his tokkas he sticks it up in the air. Vanilla is more of a fancy cat—I saw him at a breeder’s place and he jumped into my arms so I had to bring him home. I got him for my son but he sort of latched on to me. Vanilla’s the one who makes a cameo on Hired and I think he’s very good and charismatic and kind of steals the spotlight. I’m afraid he might get his own spinoff show from this! Vanilla likes to check people out. When people come into my office he likes to sit on their lap and see what they do. He always tries to size people up. If somebody doesn’t like cats, he knows. I don’t confer with Vanilla about job applicants. But if someone doesn’t like animals I think that really says something about them. You have to be pretty compassionate in order to be a trainer and someone who doesn’t like dogs and cats has a very critical piece missing—that empathic sort of piece. Another interviewee on the show asked if you designed your own office and gym and your answer was never revealed. So what is it? Yeah, I designed the office. The gyms are all different. They’re all specific to the neighborhood they’re in. So much about the gym experience has to do with the environment—not so much the design but the environment. I just try to instill excitement in people so that they’re pumped up about going to the gym. I work with a designer named Bill Sofield. – Continue Reading Below – Continue Reading BelowTell us about the design for your Astor Place location, where the episode of Hired was filmed. The Astor Place location is Victorian Punk mixed with Goth. The East Village is the neighborhood which gave birth to Punk, Glam, and Goth, and lots of other downtown trends. I didn’t try to copy any of them but took the feeling of those things and turned it into something new, which is what I tend to do when designing my gyms. I created my gyms in response to the chain gyms. Those big-box gyms are bland and clinical and very mall-like. There’s just no energy. It’s like working out in a massage room at a spa and I can’t do it. I grew up in nightclubs so maybe that has something to do with the designs. I don’t think my gyms look like nightclubs but I do think they have the same effect. Nightclubs are designed to make people feel sexy and uninhibited. You feel the music and when you walk in, it’s like walking into a great party. And that’s the vibe I want to create. When you walk into my gym you’re drawn in and it’s hot and sexy—you lose your inhibition, gain energy, and you want to work out hard. Your gym promises clients they’ll «look better naked»—and your new seven-day crash course aims to help people achieve this goal. Why did you decide to offer this program? The reason we designed the crash course is because we find that so many people go the gym and don’t get results. Cardio, for example, can be catabolic and if you lose lean tissue your metabolism will slow. There’s an American College of Sports Medicine study that found that overweight people who got on a treadmill 5 days a week, 45 minutes a day, gained more weight. It has to do with your metabolism—doing exercise in a way that your body can’t adapt to. We’ll help you increase your metabolism and burn more calories whether you’re exercising or not so that the results you get working toward your goal will be more predictable. – Continue Reading BelowWhat does the program entail? You’ll begin the week working with a trainer for an hour analysis and hands-on session—that trainer will show you what to do throughout the week depending on how much time you have to spend. With the crash course we’re charging $50—it’s worth about $300—and you get your money back at the end of the week if you don’t like the results. But we’ve been very successful with it—we began offering the program at the start of May and so far we’ve only given out one $50 refund.
