I wanted to give a huge shoutout to for being such an incredible coach. This experience has been so enjoyable and very eye-opening to what’s possible for me as an athlete long-term.
Actually, every coach I’ve worked with has been pretty amazing. Each of them brought a different strategy and energy to the table. I’ve been blessed to work with good leaders, and I’ve always tried to be an enjoyable athlete to work with in return.
Some people like to slap the label of “coach-hopping” on someone to shame the athlete for not sticking with one coach long enough.
To me though, these partnerships are almost like romantic relationships. When you realize the relationship is no longer serving you, it’s time to lovingly part ways and move on so you can grow and find “the one”… maybe it’s not forever, but it’s someone who feels like they’re right for you in this part of your life. And you do see it through, as long as you’re growing and becoming better.
Realizing a relationship isn’t good for you but staying with them out of guilt or fear of what other people will think of you leaving… to me is just wild.
I decided to hire David when I realized diving more into functional health, hormones, and gut health was going to take me to the next level. My values shifted. I no longer wanted to do flexible dieting, eating processed foods and supplements that don’t serve my body. I wanted to learn more about optimizing my body naturally in every possible way during an off season so that prep would be easy, and we did exactly that.
Prep was relatively easy. It was smooth. If we had a little more time we could’ve brought an even crispier look to the stage, but we did some crazy stuff in 2 months with minimal cardio and a ton of food. David made sure my internal health remained our #1 focus.
Our next step is growth. I’m excited to watch this next season of life unfold with new values, new perspectives and new goals. Thank you David for being so supportive, attentive, detailed, and passionate with the work you do.🙏🏻❤️
Let’s do this thing.😈
