Subj: Why Have A Coach?
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard, “I know what to do … I just need to do it.”
Well, guess what?
Knowing what to do and not doing it produces the same result as not knowing what to do.
And those results are usually frustration and feeling like you’ve let yourself down again.
This is why we all do better with a coach.
Someone to guide and support us, show us the safest and most effective exercises to do … and how to do them correctly.
Someone to hold us accountable to our plan.
Someone top high-five us when we do well, and reassure is when we’re struggling.
Here are my top 5 reasons to have a fitness coach:
Goal-Setting: If you don’t know your destination, it’s going to be pretty difficult to reach it.
Accountability: You’ll be amazed how your behavior changes for the better when you have someone checking up on you and making sure you’re sticking with your plan.
Reassurance: Things will go wrong. There will be bad days. Having someone to “pick you up” and keep you moving forward is key.
Efficiency: Who has time to waste standing around a corporate gym with no plan while waiting for equipment they don’t know how to use to become available? Not you. Not having a coach is a huge waste of time.
Results: Simply put, having a plan – and someone to help you execute it correctly and hold you accountable to it – is going to improve your results.
We all do better with a coach. Even coaches :-)
