We talk about the perils that teens experience everyday and how CrossFit can be a positive outlet for them.

We bring David on the mid today for his debut podcast!



Today Devon, David, and Cam jam on 7 mistakes they made early in their coaching careers. No better way to learn and grow than from mistakes.

1. Not listening to clients and their goals

2. Not foucusing on the whole picture

3. Not having a help first attitude

4. Not relating to a diverse client group + not meeting clients where they're at

5. Doing free classes

6. Not checking in on clients

7. Not having coaches meetings

Coaches Cam and Devon sit down and jam the evolution of what a good coach actually is, punishment burpees, and the crossroads you encounter when you turn 60. 

In the fitness space we find that the common denominator for clients that have success is always consistency. Whether you are into CrossFit, ultramarathons, leisurely walks, or even Zumba if you do it frequently you’re probably going to see pretty good results from it.

We see it all the time: people come in with injuries and think they can’t get started because they have a bad shoulder or bad knees. Often times these injuries just mean that we need to get stronger and don’t necessarily need rest.
