IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:

=> The hybrid approach to training allows for maintaining muscle while pursuing other fitness goals, when done right; here’s the guidelines.

=> Effective coaching requires understanding the client's life context and challenges. This is the “art” part of coaching but here are the resources that are a MUST.

=> Environment plays a crucial role in shaping fitness behaviors and outcomes. How do you help a client build an environment that supports them when they feel it’s out of their control.

=> Genetics influence performance, but dedication and training can lead to significant improvements. How much can you really improve? This will blow your mind.

=> Community and support systems are vital for sustained motivation and success in fitness. When a client doesn’t have it what is the solution?

=> Behavior change is a key component of coaching, requiring skill in communication and empathy. Many coaches need to upgrade this skill, Cody and Luka share a number of principles, strategies, and tools.

=> Coaches should focus on small, actionable steps to avoid overwhelming clients. Most clients take on fitness and nutrition as if they’ve entered a video game at level 52, the coach needs to adjust it to their level 1!

=> It's important to create a safe space for clients to discuss their challenges and feelings and asking the right questions can help clients uncover their own solutions - here are the questions.

=> Building a coaching business is about developing a toolbox of skills from marketing, sales, content creation, listening, leadership, operations, and much more.

=> Improving communication is crucial for personal and professional relationships; it will upgrade every area of your life when you dedicate deliberate practice to this skill.

=> Transitioning to intuitive eating requires redefining flexible dieting. We share some principles of when it’s ok to transition to intuitive eating and why it’s not a “free for all.”

=> Identity plays a significant role in sustaining weight loss and no strategy or approach will work long term without a shit in identity.

=> Daily weigh-ins can help clients stay accountable without emotional attachment, here’s how you do that with a client.
