She referred a friend — because she feels stronger, more confident, and knows I’ll take care of them too.

This was an Easter week check-in — and yes, I gave her a workout with Bulgarian split squats. She loved it.

Sometimes the check-ins are serious, sometimes it’s just gifs. But that connection? That’s coaching too.

She did her first full workout — and loved it so much she referred a friend. You know it’s working when people want to bring others in.

Sometimes I text clients before a workout — just to give that extra push. That nudge can make all the difference.

Quick midweek check-in — protein numbers looked solid so I made sure he knew it. Little wins add up

He asked about a supplement in-store. I don’t sell anything — but I’ll always give you my honest take. Helping clients get what’s best for them, not what’s trendy.

He couldn’t do a pull-up — yet. So we adapted. He started tracking progress, and yes, even celebrated water weight drops.

Midweek check-in: she’s down 2 lbs and pushing her protein. I told her she’s doing great — because she is.

She wasn’t sure whether to train through a cold. I helped her figure out if she needed a push or a pause

Barebells bars only have 1g of sugar? Client thought it was witchcraft. Coaching includes snack upgrades too.

His legs used to be strong. Now he’s rebuilding — one workout, one stair, one sore step at a time.

Day 1 lunges wrecked him. But here he is, noticing how much stronger his legs feel already. That’s progress — and also, hilarious.

Form first, always. This client gets it. Also… Barebells bars? Life-changing. Especially the one that tastes like a Twix.

Didn’t want to squat? Cool — we swapped for leg press. Coaching = flexibility + accountability + a little sarcasm.

She told me diet’s locked in, work’s been busy, and steps are way up. That’s consistency — and it’s paying off.

Bruh… the lunges? His chest was sore, data was accurate, and he was not happy. That means they worked.

No spotter? No problem. He listens to his body and knows when to go.

He asked about supplementing veggie intake with powdered mixes — and I gave a straight, helpful take. Because life isn’t always spinach and sweet potatoes

Proactive check-in. She hadn’t messaged, so I reached out first. Just asking how it’s going shows clients they’re not on this journey alone.

This guy realized he was low on protein and way under calories. I helped him break it down and build it back — with real food, smart swaps, and whey protein

He said workouts were becoming his favorite part of the week. That’s the magic — not just results, but momentum.

Proactive check-in. She hadn’t messaged, so I reached out first. Just asking how it’s going shows clients they’re not on this journey alone

Gave her honest feedback: more strength training, bump protein closer to 100g, and try a Barebells bar. Not cheap — but the tastiest lean bar out there

He said it himself — not a small dude, and never will be. So we leaned into it: strength, aesthetics, and ownership of who he is.

She asked for FaceTime form checks — not check-ins. I love it. I’m here for whatever support looks like for you.

He underestimated the chest press — and I loved hearing it. Progress starts where comfort ends

We talked about more than workouts — I helped him reset his whole week. Life’s messy. Coaching should adapt.

He got back from a work trip and jumped right into the plan — even rejoined a gym. I build momentum and help clients reclaim it.

Breaking down movements: kneeling vs standing, reverse fly angles, and what hits what. Coaching = clarity

Yes, I check on water too — not because I micromanage, but because small habits stack up. Also, I may call you Paul Bunyan if you log like a lumberjack

She forgot to log her workout, so I checked in. Not to guilt her — just to remind her she’s not doing this alone

Client dropped 3 lbs in the first week and hit their protein target daily. I was right there with them, confirming food logs and cheering it on

We adjusted his workout plan using only the plates he had at home. No excuses. Just smart training

He asked whether to increase weight between sets or between sessions — so I gave him a straight answer. Strategy over guesswork

He asked if he was eating enough. We broke it down with his logs and scale data. No guesswork — just direction

Midweek check-in: she’s down 2 lbs and pushing her protein. I told her she’s doing great — because she is.

Sometimes I message clients even when they’re sick — just to check in. Progress includes compassion

We talked through program structure — upper/lower/full body. He asked if switching it week-to-week would be better, and trusted my take

Explained lunge math

Client asked if it’s okay to sub out exercises — 100%. Deadlifts swapped? Totally fine. Coaching = structure with freedom.
