WHY DO I NEED AN ONLINE COACH?
Imagine starting a new job that is completely unfamiliar to you and you’re given no help or teaching on how to do it, and you’re the only one doing it. You may work it out eventually, but it could prove to be a long, stressful and lonely process, and you’d likely pick up plenty of unhelpful habits along the way without even realising it. Now imagine you start a new job and you have an industry expert showing you what to do every step of the way. They teach you the ins and outs of how to do it, they answer any questions you have no matter how insignificant they may seem, and they get you back on track any time you sway from your path. This is how I compare training on your own and training with a coach. It’s not impossible to do it alone, but it’s a hell of a lot easier to have an expert teach you the exact way to do it to maximise your output in the most efficient time frame.
Here are what I consider to be the main benefits of having an online fitness coach:
Expertise - you will be given the exact strategies and techniques that need to be implemented in order to achieve your personal physical transformation goals. No guess work, no getting to the gym and thinking about what you should do next, no wondering what kind of meals you should be eating, no wondering why you’re not seeing progress and no trying out every different plan known to man before you figure out what might work. Every aspect of the plan to achieve your transformation is taken care of, and all that is required from you is the effort to see it through.
Accountability - Having an online coach means that you aren’t on your journey alone. Doing something alone is always infinitely harder than doing it with support. The majority of people are on a constant rollercoaster of staying consistent for a while, and then falling off track for a while. It’s so much easier to skip a workout or order a takeaway when you can’t be bothered to cook when you have no one to answer to. Having someone to report to means that you aren’t the only one that you’re cheating if you don’t do what you’re supposed to, and will make an incredible difference in your execution and results.
Cost - one month of TMLIFTING online coaching is the same as a very small handful of averagely priced personal training sessions. So for around the same price you could have 1 hour of your week taken care of with a personal training session, or every single hour of your week taken care of with online coaching (168 hours, if you’re wondering).
Flexibility - your training and nutrition plan is built around your schedule, not the other way around. You put in the work entirely on your own time, which is especially useful if you have an irregular or unpredictable schedule. Not only this but your workouts are designed to fit into the time that you have available for them, and you also have the freedom to workout wherever you want/need to, not just the gym that your personal trainer happens to be affiliated with.
Lifestyle - transforming your physique isn’t about having one good workout, it’s about modifying your lifestyle and behaviour in a way that is conducive to what you are looking to achieve. A great physique is built from consistent training, diet and lifestyle routines performed week after week and month after month. Even if you wanted to hire a personal trainer for every single workout that you do, not only would this be incredibly expensive, but what you do in the gym is only half of the battle, and what you do outside of the gym is just as (if not more) important in achieving your goals. With an online coach you have ongoing support whenever you need it, not just scheduled sessions. Life doesn’t happen to you in ordered scheduled sessions, so neither should your coaching support.
What all of this really means though, is that it gets you results. You don’t have to spend years figuring out how the body works and responds to diet and training before you eventually may or may not see a positive physical change. Hiring me as your online coach sets you up to achieve your goals in a vastly quicker time frame than if you were to go it alone.
