I am a strength and conditioning/nutrition coach. You might hear that and think what determines whether a person is a good coach in this space? It’s a subjective topic. I will share my opinion though because I do consider myself a good coach. Some people look to see what your credentials are on paper. 5 of the 7 certs in the pic are mine the other 2 are Seth and kait. I will be the first to tell you those certs mean little to nothing as far as how good of a coach someone is. I would say the same thing if they were degrees. What i believe deems someone a good coach is the amount of real life evidence they have for creating profound change in themselves and in others.If you have followed my gym for a while I’m sure you know about the massive success stories we have had the pleasure of being a part of. I have stacks of testimonials of those stories over the years. I also have my own fitness journey. In the one picture on the left I was 17. That was the same exact size I was when I got to prison where my fitness journey began. Maybe even a little smaller since I was using so many hard drugs right up until the day I was sentenced and went to Jackson. When I got to RGC and I stepped on the scale in medical I weighed 90 lbs. I was extremely weak and my cardiac health was in the toilet I couldn’t even sustain a fast pace walk. On the right side is a pic of me at my biggest I weighed 170. When I left the joint I weighed 165. I almost doubled my my bodyweight from then until I got to my biggest and strongest. While gaining very little fat. I have trained consistently for 15 years straight at this point I’m really just training for the love of the game. I still compete with myself daily. I plan to until the party is over. When it comes to change I have woke up in a pile of my own puke with a needle hanging out of my arm and on the other end I have been standing on the first place podium spot in several competitions. This is evidence that I am who I say I am. That being said there is a certain amount of responsibility that falls on the one being coached. No matter how good the coach is all they can do is lay it out for you to play it out. I guarantee results if all the parts of the plan are followed. Not just the easy fun parts eg going to the gym. The hard parts to. Nutrition hydration sleep supplementation. No matter how good your coach is or your programming ect. One thing will always remain the same.
NOTHING WORKS UNLESS YOU DO!!!
