Daily Update


Many coaches make this mistake: programming for the features of their gym instead of the benefits their clients want.

A better coach focuses on the benefits of the workout, not its features. She starts by considering the intent of each workout and then determines how she’ll achieve that stimulus. Finally, she explains the intent to her clients when she presents their workout for the day.

This is simpler than it sounds. But most group coaches don’t do it.

  • Weight loss
  • Endurance

How do you help the person achieve the results he or she wants?
