The Importance Of Having A Coach

I hear a lot of people tell me reasons why they don’t need a coach.

Here are a list of reasons that they give me:

1. Coaches cost money
2. I can get fit on my own
3. There are a lot of fitness apps and videos I can go to
4. Etc.

To debunk each one by one:

1. Coaches cost money. I could’ve said the same thing. It takes money to do almost anything. To be a professional athlete, for example a basketball player, you have to invest. You invest in the clothes, in the hoop, in the right foods, and whether you believe it or not, they have coaches, with a plural. I didn’t have just one coach, I have a nice handful of people who invested in me getting fit. So yes, I understand coaches cost money, but so does your health if you want to live another many decades.

2. I can get fit on my own. This is true to a certain extent. You can get somewhere decent without a coach. But you will operate on the same mind that made you unfit. Coaches have been there, done that, and have proven how and why you do certain workouts to get you results. I could’ve easily just trained myself and got somewhere, but my brother and sister and four other coaches trained me to where I am now. I paid for it, and so did they. No athletic teacher becomes a teacher without having an athletic teacher themselves.

3. There are a lot of fitness apps and videos I can go to. Yes, this is true. Now get that app or video to spot you. Now get them to correct your posture when you start getting sloppy on your workout. This is the same reason why people workout many times a week for many years and they never see worthy results. There is no way to cut corners. If you want things in your life to change, you have to change things in your life. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

Get a coach, whether it is me or someone I recommend, but don’t fight this battle alone. Let me be your coach.

Nutrition

Nutrition is 90% of the training. The gym is 10% of the training. People go to the gym, get on a treadmill for 30 minutes to an hour. Wipe the sweat off of their backs with a towel. Then they go to a fast food restaurant for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner.

This is the typical person who says they don’t need a coach. They have a $10 membership at the gym, go to the gym on day’s end with no obtainable results and look at others who do have coaches transform within a matter of 3 to 6 months.

It’s called a lifestyle. Fast food salad is loaded with sodium. That same person who goes to the gym wasted all of that effort and time the moment they bought a breakfast salad or sandwich from McDonald’s because they already superceded their sodium intake.

This is why the majority of the world is obese. Have a coach view what you eat during the day. Let them turn your menu into the perfect menu that will give you results. Let me help you do that.
