3 things I’ll never tell you to do:
Gym-hop everytime you get bored or see something flashier:
I totally support a change when it’s the right thing to do, but falling into the habit of joining a new gym every other month wipes your coaching history, progressions, and accountability. Strength comes from finishing 12–16 week blocks, not chasing shiny equipment and Instagram pages.
Keep your goals to yourself:
Self-motivation is great, but as your coach if I don’t know the target, I can’t build the plan. Say the number or the date then we reverse-engineer it together. That’s what we are hear for at the end of the day, not just reading off the whiteboard.
Let your watch decide your dinner:
Wrist trackers estimate output, they don’t know your recovery or goals. Use them for steps if you like but you should be building meals around protein, plants, portions - not outrunning a dodgy number on your wrist.
