Strength Coach Collective
Welcome to the “Strength Coach Collective” podcast, where we bridge the gap between cutting-edge fitness science and real-world coaching.
For the first time, people are living longer but not better. Fitness coaches and personal trainers can fix that. But who’s helping them push the industry forward? No one—until now.
Hosted by top trainers and gym owners, this show will teach you how to turn research and technology into actionable tools for transforming lives in gyms, studios and clubs.
From heart-rate training, wearable tech and biometrics to the psychology of behavior change, this podcast bridges the gap between knowledge and application. In each episode, we’ll give you practical insights to elevate your coaching or personal training practice and maximize client results.
Join the movement to evolve the fitness industry and improve lives on the front lines. Together, we’ll create better coaches who can create greater changes for clients.
