The problem with the industry is that coaches are usually trying to sell ideas and programs. The “product” is information and the actual end result depends on the consumer. This is a tough sell.

Buying a program doesn’t do that because the consumer is required to actually do something to experience the promised results/feelings.
Coaches are left with no options other than to get creative and come up with flashy ideas to capture new consumers/clients. I’ve offered to train/help people around me for free and I haven’t had one person accept my offer. I’d probably get more interest if I posted a bunch of half naked photos with motivational quotes or recorded myself doing stuff like jujimufu.

And even if she wasn’t, it was the greatest compliment ever.

Lol the plates at my gym aren’t even 8.75 inches, so I was gonna die anyway
Oh man, you may be pulling dead deadlifts that are deader than dead.
It’s just like that Marilyn Manson song.
