Being a coach/trainer/whatever you want to call yourself is a great gig. But being just another trainer at the gym isn’t enough to have a great career, and life, in the fitness industry. Having your shit together with a great personal development plan, a programming system, a coaching system, and a list of ways to expand your career is what it takes to make your life as a trainer pretty damn rad. The Strength Faction podcast delivers content focused on all of that and more!
