PERSONAL COACHING PROGRAM

WHAT IS IT?

A holistic training program with coaching support designed to keep you progressing and building your strength & fitness for the long term. 

This coaching program is for you if you want to cultivate a long term, consistent training approach that is sustainable, adaptable, flexible, and doesn’t burn you out or break you down. 

This program is for you if you are interested in growing in multiple areas of fitness including strength, coordination, mobility, conditioning.

This is a template training program, you’ll choose between fully equipped gym, and a minimal equipment (dumbbells & bands) versions.

HOW DOES MY PERSONAL COACHING PROGRAM WORK?

Via training app you will:

• Receive your training program each week

• View Movement demo videos

• Share your workout results with me

• Upload videos of your work

• Receive coaching feedback and training guidance from me

• Exchange messages 

• Manage your account

• Process monthly auto-payments 

TRAINING PROGRAM FORMAT

12 week training cycles, four days per week. Fully equipped gym (functional training equipment would include barbells & plates, pull up bar, box, bands, bench, some type of cardio equipment) or less equipment options (dumbbells, bands)

WHAT DOES A TRAINING DAY LOOK LIKE

• Starter

• Strength/Skill (Main and accessory lifts/elements)

• Conditioning

• Finisher

STARTERS/FINISHERS

Typical sessions in my programs are book-ended with starters and finishers. Both serve the purpose of priming the body for more complex elements, developing body awareness and durability. Most movements in our starters and finishers fall under the categories of:

• Prehab /Physical Prep

• Positional strength 

• Mobility

STRENGTH

Strength is developed through progressive overload on the major lifts and supported by both accessory lifts and other skill-based elements such as gymnastics/bodyweight movements.

CONDITIONING

Most of our conditioning will focus on short, intense conditioning pieces and intervals, with one longer conditioning/recovery day programmed each week. As a 4 day/week program, the intention is to create space for other low intensity conditioning such as walking, jogging, swimming, hiking, biking, stairs, etc. outside the program.

Because you’ll have access to things that really matter to longevity and progress: a quality training program, support, accountability , movement coaching, advice and expertise related to training decisions and progress. 

WHAT IS ASKED OF YOU?

• Initial commitment for 3 months to start (that’s one training cycle), then month to month commitment

• Open, honest, and regular communication. 

• Buy in. Especially as you get started with the program, give yourself the opportunity to get into the swing of things. The objective here is long term, healthy, vibrant training. Focus on reflecting and making non-judgemental observations vs. over analyzing your training.

• Serious about getting started? Complete this brief questionnaire, and don’t forget to include your contact information

I believe in the value of coaching beyond, ‘what exercises should I do?’or even, ‘how should I do them?’ (which are valuable questions to ask). But going further into developing a mindset and training philosophy that helps make training something that deeply contributes to the quality of your life and helps you continue to grow as a person and adopt practices that carry over into every aspect of your life. Training is a regular exercise in commitment, introspection, diligence. Physical training can be a space we carve out for ourselves to practice these things and many others.  

Shut out the noise. Tune out the buzzwords. Lean into building yourself day by day for the long haul.
