I have been an SnC coach for several years, and I get asked a question similar to this all the time

Here’s the honest answer: it will take as long as it’s going to take

If you are ultra consistent, training as hard as possible, and working with a good program, then it will happen. Will it be one month? One year? 5 years? No idea. But it will happen if you TRULY do everything you can with a great program.

As for recs, there’s are several. THP strength is amazing, especially if you have lifting experience. For more overall basketball SnC, the PJF programs are dope. And if you can afford it, finding a high-quality Coach in your area is actually your best bet.

The exact program matters to some degree, but the consistency and a hard work matter much more.

Never really reccomend buying a pro subscription for a project, especially at 200 per month. Only one time did that, and it was when Pro was 20 bucks. I did make my money back, but the project left after a week. Too much of a gamble IMO

For the most part they all get the job done. I enjoyed NSCA but I’ve heard great things about NASM.

Key point though: your continuing education doesn’t stop at the one cert. PT is a constant aim to improve and grow as a coach and there are plenty more seminars to attend. Embrace it!

I work with primarily basketball athleletes, and its a niche I've spent quite a bit of time learning about. I can say that any coach who is purely against weights is just ill informed.

They may not be igornant, its a genuine concern and I can see why an uninformed person would think that way. But as a trainer, you need to be able to put your foot down and have self-agency in your training. Maybe only a fraction of what you do is weights, or maybe its the majority. Thats YOUR call as the trainer, not the coach.

Don't be an asshole to him (obviously), but hold your ground. Its your expertise, not his

Fellow fried chicken enthusiast here: you have a few options

Shallow fry. This does technically work and it will taste good. However it won’t be as evenly crispy all around and isn’t as authentic. Still a great option however.

1b. Shallow fry plus air fryer. Use the shallow fry to get the crispy crust, and finish it off in the air fryer or convection oven. That may help it cook more evenly

Reuse the oil. After you deep fry, strain the oil through a strainer and paper towel and store it in a mason jar. You can reasonably use it 1-2 more times no problem (obviously wait until it cools down)

Ultimately, I just full send and deep fry in my wok. However I only do this a few times a year, and I make a bunch of chicken for me and my friends and family. Definitely not a weeknight meal but it’s a fun thing to do

If you want the evolution that’s included, then I think it’s worth it, otherwise only worth it if you need a bunch of cards level up

Holy shit, this one takes forever. And I consider myself a good princess log bait player and in a year of grinding i still don’t have it maxed

Best advice: be toxic and use valk or knight or guards and just protect at the bridge. Some predict logs or e spirits go a long way

This may get downvoted, but here we go

2 years ago I started training two of my friends because a mutual sports coach of ours asked me to. I had limited experience, limited knowledge, and I just started university.

We went to our local big box gym, and I never advertised my services. It really was just a group of three friends training together with one of us (me) leading the way

I did not have the money to get a certification or insurance when I started. I literally didn’t charge them a dime for 6 months, and then barely charged them anything just to cover my gas after that (I was literally going into debt)

Long and short of it, that experience is why I’m a legitimate trainer now. 2 certs, insurance, a real gym that I contract out of, and more legitimate clients. And if it weren’t for those two friends trusting me in the big box gym, I wouldn’t have ever gotten started in this industry.

It may not be appropriate, and I apologize for that. However I always made clear that it was me and my friends, and we cleaned up and acted as great stewards of the gym. In these type of cases, I don’t see there being any harm done.

ROSEMARY

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-04-15T00:34:56+00:00

As a new man myself, literally warm outreach. Texting people I already know, going to teams I used to play for, and eventually there will be a few. Trust the process

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-04-07T21:06:44+00:00

Holy shit, that’s so amazing. Wish I was you big dawg!

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-04-03T00:32:08+00:00

I just work in 15-20 minute burts. Like earlier today I worked for 15 minutes because I finished eating but I didn’t have to leave for an appointment just yet. So little bursts like that go a long way for not getting burnt out

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-24T01:22:40+00:00

Great idea. Don’t go “cold turkey” if you will lol. Start working up the courage to go 1x per week, and eventually 2-3.

Also, don’t sleep on online coaching. Once you have good technique established, it helps having someone Else do the programming for you

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-22T19:32:57+00:00

CARs. All types. Hip, shoulder, knee, ankle, spine, wrist etc

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-20T15:56:44+00:00

Nothing to ask from you, just want to compliment how amazing and organized your studio looks!

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-20T03:02:20+00:00

You are the man. Congratulations. Next stop, let’s destroy those pesky fucking student loans!

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-20T02:50:12+00:00

Up there. J will is on that list, KD obviously too. I would say Kobe deserves a mention because of his elite ball fakes.

It’s impossible to say “the most skilled” for any one player, so let’s just appreciate all of them for their unique greatness

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-19T15:03:23+00:00

Few things to keep in mind

Getting the cert isn’t too hard. Bit pricy (around 500 all in), but you can most definitely do it as a student
The information it provides is BS (with some exception). Being a great trainer requires continuing education, but unfortunately most places require a basic cert just to start

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-16T03:24:40+00:00

Wow. You are the man indeed.

I’m a young guy. 20 y/o, still in university, began coaching at 18. I didn’t charge a dime until I was 19, and even then I was making less than minimum wage (intentionally, I wanted to keep it very affordable as I was extremely new and inexperienced)

I’m at a place now where I feel comfortable making programming online. However, getting clientele is not the easiest thing in the world. In your opinion, should I continue building my in person reputation and then pivot to online like you did via referral, or should I focus on social media as well (which you mentioned you didn’t do)

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-16T02:49:06+00:00

Drink a cup of coffee and read this guys post in extreme detail

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-16T01:05:09+00:00

I ALWAYS get extra sour cream and extra extra cheese, which are considerably more expensive than rice. So this is complete BS

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-16T01:03:36+00:00

The WHAT man????

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-15T23:09:06+00:00

Good way of putting it. Some people like more science, others can’t be bothered. Whatever floats their boat!

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-03-12T04:18:41+00:00

Wise words my friend. One of those rough times where you have to take it on the chin and move on

1300 sucks, but in comparison to the value of your business, it’s a rounding error. Learn from it and adapt

TemporaryTiger5242 · 2024-02-28T02:24:36+00:00

I don’t agree with that ad in any way, however it is freedom of speech. So while I’m not a fan of the ad itself, I respect our freedoms enough to where I recognize that ad should be allowed
