Mark emphasizes the profound impact of language on our beliefs and actions, particularly the act of verbalizing ambitious goals. The potency of written language and its role in crystallizing goals and aspirations cannot be ignored. By simply refining our language and affirmations—pairing them with mindful breathing—we can redefine our reality. As Coaches, using empowering language can drastically reshape a client's self-belief and progress. Words, whether spoken or written, have a ripple effect far beyond individual transformations, impacting communities and generations. When wielded wisely, they can become tools for profound personal and professional evolution. Remember, transforming one's mindset isn't just about embracing a growth mentality; it's about recognizing the words' immense power to shape that journey. ______ If you want to turn your business around, become profitable (or MORE profitable), and enjoy being a CrossFit Affiliate Owner...we want to work with you.

We wanted to talk through two training programs we are implementing to make our coaching team better. We want to give our athletes the very best possible experience and we want to give our coaches easy access to the tools that can best prepare them for advancing their careers. Sounds serious I know but we had fun with this one, talked through these internal courses and hope that we give a sound perspective on what these programs offer to our coaches and put some ideas out there for other gym owners or coaching team leaders to make their tribe stronger and more effective. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/grant087/message

What WE Can Learn from CrossFit Coaches w. Rick Espindola Rick Espindola is the Head Coach at CrossFit Maximus in Lexington, KY. I've really enjoyed learning from him and observing how he runs the class, creates the culture, & teaches rather complex movements to groups of people. I think there's a lot that we can learn from him so listen in & enjoy! Rick's Email: Ricardoespindola_8@hotmail.com
with Thomas Cosic, one of 12 Level-3-CrossFit-Coaches in Germany and Box owner of CrossFit Munich I spoke about the misconceptions and advantages of CrossFit training. A lot of people don't know this sport in depth and only scratch the surface.
Hollis Molloy has been part of CrossFit from the beginning and is one of only a handful of Certified Level 4 CrossFit Coaches worldwide. He is the co-owner of CrossFit Santa Cruz, and believes that everyone is an athlete, regardless of current ability or past experience. He does not tolerate subpar movement in his classes and works to inspire athletes to become the best possible movers. For Hollis, CrossFit is a way of expressing our true potential as human beings. When not in his gym, he travels the world as a CrossFit Seminar Staff member teaching both the Level 1 and Level 2 Seminars. Kelly has always said that “there are few coaches that are able to effectively blend technical ability, passion, and the capacity to understand and address an athlete's weaknesses as well as Coach Hollis”. In this episode we hear about how Hollis went from an unhealthy weight to taking over the original CrossFit HQ space, and running it successfully for over a decade. For more info on Hollis and CrossFit Santa Cruz, check them out here, or follow them on Instagram and Facebook.

In sports, the defining characteristic of all hall of fame players is consistency. Lots of people can have a great day, a great season, or even a great couple years, but it’s the ability to do it over and over again for decades that makes someone truly great. As a CrossFit coach, consistency is just as important. The best coaches may not be a 10 out of 10 on many days, but rarely, if ever, will you see a great coach fall below a 7 out of 10, even on their worst days. As gym owners, we should be building our teams and our business around these reliable and dependable 7/10 coaches. All it takes is one really negative experience for someone to quit your gym for good, and members are much more likely to be turned off from a really bad experience, then they are to stick around because they had a few great experiences. This episode covers how we should be thinking about showing up each day as coaches, so we can facilitate the best possible class experience, and be a valuable part of our coaching teams. It was inspired by Ep 133 of the Active Life Podcast, which I highly recommend listening to as well.

An Alex-less ERB crew tackle the awful events of Christchurch, the Greatest Rugby Company in the World (and wonder if the pod should carry the same weight?), whether Jake White is the coaching version of a Cross Fitting-Vegan, and wonder aloud about Jack Maddock's bootylicious booty. They also chat about some Super Rugby rugby, the latest update to the World League, Adam rants about commentators and kak fans, Ben lives the dream as a double-doing Dad while Matt seems to not notice tanks coming down the road in South Korea. Also, Alex's new cat could be called Cat Lambie in this week's poll. Stay strong!

Coach Rachel and Coach Chris sit down to discuss what they would tell a new CrossFit coach and what sets apart good and great coaches. Although they are both CF-L3 certified, this fact has almost nothing to do with what's really important: caring for your members.

Danny is a former Police Officer, Head Coach at NCFIT Redwood City, and creator and host of the Iron Crew Podcast. He found CrossFit back in 2006, and used it to train for the Police Olympics. As host of the Iron Crew Podcast, Danny talks about everything from fitness and nutrition to parenting and relationships. There are so many CrossFit Coaches in the world today, and in order for all of us to make the impact we set out to, we must find our niche- that thing that we are so passionate about that we study it even when we don't have to. In this episode, we sit down at NCFIT Redwood City with Danny to chat about finding your niche as a CrossFit Coach, and how he found his in the mobility world.

This week the boys sat down for a chat about the tough conversations and situations that CrossFit Coaches and Box Owners have to have or have to deal with. We touch on managing athlete expectations and keeping them safe, keeping the class moving smoothly and dealing with the chatty members as well as the over-eager ones, and finding a way to establish trust with the member that’s feeling a little down and out or going through something tough in life who’s negative energy is dragging down the class, but what they really need is just someone to talk to.This was an interesting conversation because as we had it Danny and I did a lot of self reflection and realized that there have been more than a few moments where we’ve been on the other side of almost all these conversations or made some of the mistakes we regularly have to correct as coaches.This is a great episode for box owners, coaches and athletes to learn from, I know I learned a ton about myself as an athlete and coach from having this conversation.
