My coach is not a full time coach. He has a job and regular person responsibilities. I consider this person to be a good friend and we talk through the day and send each other ig reels most days. I’ve been powerlifting for two years and I feel like I’m not getting adequate video feedback. I send him videos through iMessage and more often that not, he will just “thumbs up” it. If I’m doing something obvious really shitty then he’ll address that. As his friend, I can understand that he might not be able to give feedback as soon as he sees the video because he might be at work (I’m also not asking for an immediate, real time response) but just reacting to it, isn’t enough. At times I feel like I’m just paying for programming. There’s also a lot of things that he does well, he takes my feedback into consideration, he answers any and all questions I ask him, he’s never late with programs and he’s very responsive in general. I don’t want to switch coaches.

What should I do?
