In this episode I discuss 4 common training mistakes I see beginners, and those first getting back into training, make.
SUMMARY:
- Take ego out of things and start back slow with a set plan to guide you!
- Mistake 1: Not staying focused on what YOU need.
- Mistake 2: Going 0-60 – Making yourself sore each workout
- Mistake 3: Doing a harder variation you haven’t earned.
- Mistake 4: Not having a PLAN. Randomly stringing things together.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
When you’re just starting out, lay out a plan to give yourself direction and focus on those basics, those fundamentals. Start small and build.
Make your plan realistic so you can get consistent. Master those basics and then focus on progressing slowly to push and challenge yourself. Earn those harder variations and continue to build over time.
But focus on building from where YOU are at currently. Do not get caught up chasing each new shiny object or comparing yourself to where someone else is at in their fitness journey!

I’m 56 and a runner since 2012 and looking to do your custom coaching or one on one. In the last two years I’ve put on approximately 25 lbs. I’m looking for accountability and a program that will work with my running program/schedule. I am retired and on a budget. So that will determine if I’m able to do the program.
Thank you

Hi Cori,
What is the cost of the one on one coaching?
Hi Laura. Because the plans are completely custom I have an application process just to make sure it’s the right fit for both of us. If you want to email me at [email protected] we can chat more!
Hi. Is it possible to do the program at home without access to a full gym given COVID?
The coaching? Yes I customize everything based on the tools you have.
