These moments are a part of my day to day within the work I do at my facilities and in general conversations and meetings I have.  On this particular occasion we discussed acknowledging what modality of training someone actually wants to do; not just cause their friend or the internet said they should.  Furthermore, what intention do they have behind it all.  Why do they want to do this 'thing'.   I hope you enjoy this episode!

We often stop ourself from making progress, going after that goal, or achieving the desired outcome we want because we are too concerned or worried about not understanding things fully.  Yes gaining understanding is important when taking action AND we often simply need to get better at taking action itself. Seeking to understand all aspects of sometimes more often then not leads to inaction as it allows for the ability of our mind to talk ourself out of it because what if we don't actually understand all the components.  The most successful individuals don't understand everything, they are simply consistent with taking imperfect action and learning along the way. Start taking action and allow the understanding to occur along the way.  I hope you enjoy this episode!

It's easy to get comfortable and complacent when progress has been made.  Then what often happens is we wonder why further progress doesn't happen.  We still feel the 'burn' of work but we stop seeing the results we previously got.  This happens because as much as we are still putting in the reps both metaphorically and literally, those reps aren't enough of a stimulus to our brain and body for change to be required.   I hope you enjoy this episode!

Motivation comes and goes and it is something that I have been asked 1000 times now, 'how do I stay so motivated all the time?'.  The simple answer is I don't.  The key is though that I don't base my life or decisions around whether or not I am motivated.  Remember action builds motivation not the other way around.   I hope you enjoy this episode!

The health and fitness industry has a money problem.  Coaches either lack the confidence to charge more for the value they provide, or they use price as a reason to not go to another coach or facility and try and get buy in because they are the "cheaper" option.  Both of these impact the industry in a negative way.  Let's talk about it! #levelup I hope you enjoy this episode!

Communication is fundamental to coaching and any service based industry however it is a skill most don't look to refine and/or struggle with! I struggled for many years to fully understand how to communicate effectively however what I did know how to do was listen well! This led me to some level of success however it wasn't until I dove into how then to communicate my thoughts and ideas more effectively as well as how to lead a team more effectively that I truly grasped the importance of communication.  Always Be Communicating goes so much deeper than simply the words we use.  I discuss this in this episode and I hope you enjoy it!
