Make the Most of Coaching

Oftentimes when people want to take steps to get in shape, they'll hire a coach to guide and hold them accountable- which is smart, especially for beginners.

With that said, you still have to put in the effort to see results. Hiring a coach won't get you results in itself. You have to have a working relationship with open communication to be most successful. Here are some ways to make the most out of your term with your coach ...

1. Read your program and all materials. It's good to know what lies ahead in your program and to use the coach provided resources to get started on the right foot. Don't be the one who doesn't read anything and feels clueless when the answers are in front of you.

2. Ask questions. This right here is key. Don't be afraid to ask your coach questions... that's kinda the point of having one. If you don't know how to do something or why something is a certain way, ask! Your coach should be able to explain why or if you ask them something they aren't sure about, they should be more than happy to locate the answer. Asking questions = learning.

3. Communicate. If you are struggling or have concerns, let your coach know. Your coach can't help if they don't know something if wrong. Your coach may be able to offer some advice or make adjustments to accommodate you (or tell you to suck it up buttercup when necessary 😜).

4. Follow instructions. Stick to your nutrition and training program. Complete all your check ins. Respond when your coach reaches out. Send in your measurements and progress photos. These things are important.

5. Be honest. With yourself and your coach. If you are eating food but not tracking it, don't tell your coach you're following the plan and don't understand why you are gaining weight. Honesty is needed for a coach to assess progress and make adjustments. Lying to yourself may make you feel better in the moment, but it won't help you in the long run.

By following these and consistently committing to your program and coach, you will see success.
