Today's poll features two trainers with some serious reader support: Nike's Nikki Metzger and Flywheel's Sho Pettaway. It's a tough call: Nikki quotes A League of Their Own in her profile, but Sho has that killer smile. Let us know your favorite after the jump, and don't delay—voting ends at 11am Saturday morning.
