When we first became coaches, we mostly thought we’d be talking about sets, reps and protein (😂) ….One thing we never realised was just how much “life” would end up creeping through into clients sessions & what our role would look like to support that.
As coaches, we don’t just talk about training and the gym. We have conversations surrounding burnout, body image battles, mental wellbeing, menopause, fertility/ IVF, poor relationships with food, postpartum, grief and everything in between.
These are incredibly personal experiences, and whilst we’re not there to provide medical advice, we are there to listen, adapt training, offer support (& sometimes tissues!) and ensure an appropriate outlet can be provided within the exercise / gym setting.
It’s a side of coaching we never expected, but one Team Carb Nation really value 🫶🏼
