What if the real challenge starts after the challenge? Explore ways to maintain your progress beyond the finish line.

In this episode, I chat with Trevor Wittwer about the balancing act coaches face in helping clients achieve lasting change. We delve into why it’s crucial to be honest with clients who might not be ready for change and how pushing them too soon can backfire.

Trevor introduces a method he calls "interval fat loss," where clients push hard for a set period and then ease into maintenance mode before ramping up again. This approach helps prevent burnout and supports long-term weight maintenance.

We also discuss the extent of responsibility coaches should take for their clients’ results and why it’s essential for clients to drive their own progress. Plus, we explore how technology can support coaching, but emphasize that the personal connection between coach and client remains key to real success.

Key Takeaways:

• Be honest if a client isn’t ready to change. Forcing change can be unproductive for both the client and the coach.

• Coaches should provide tools and guidance, but cannot control client outcomes.

• Technology is useful, but human connection is what really drives success.
