Coaching with dr. m.c.
Follow @begin2dig
Based on consultation with YOU, we build a session or series of sessions custom built to help you achieve your pain-free body composition, strength and skill goals. email: b2d at the-mind.com
Goal: Persistent Self-Delight How do you feel? How do you feel when you wake up? When you look in the mirror? when you move?
If you didn't say "absolutely fabulous" then we have some room to do some work together. My goal is to help you perform better, no matter your current skill level, so you can feel regular joy and delight around your performance progress, whether that's recovering from an injury, dealing with chronic pain, getting back into your sport, wanting to burn some fat, or get "back in shape."
Body Composition, Strength, Agility, Stamina, Passion, Joy
- so you can be a better you for NOW and THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
WHO YOU ARE: smart, self-directed, successfully busy.
You, unlike many, get that you have a body. What you don't have is the manual.
You have something you want to do with that body, whether it's to get rid of a chronic pain that's been limiting you, learn a skill like kettlebells to get some movement into your life, burn off fat and reshape your body, improve your current sport performance, or just reclaim your body and get (back) in shape. You've made the decision: it's time to make it work.
You don't want to waste time hacking around on your own anymore trying to find another diet, another strength program that may or may not be for you: you want to cut to the chase to look better, feel better, stronger, fitter.
You want a coach whom you can trust, who will help you tweak what YOU want to do. You have the motivation to take the ideas and run with them. You don't need or want someone looking over your shoulder while you do the work, but you do want the best resource around to help dial in what you're doing to make consistent, awesome progress.
You want a coach on call, and you want to know that the information/coaching you get from that coach is the best it can be for the best results for you. You're paying for it: you want it to work now and into the future.
WHY YOU WANT TO WORK WITH ME; i am a coach and an instructor. My coaching and teaching is informed by my background as an academic, research scientist and engineer. I've used that background to assess and bring together education, experience and training in the best science-based, practice lead approaches to performance and wellbeing research and coaching. The best science and practice made accessible and available for you.
COACHING: science based, research driven, practice lead.
What you wont't get: programs.
We are not computers: we don't need more "programs."
Programs are great if you're buying a book, and it's trying its best to deliver generic approaches to help you make progress. But if you're seeing me, it's because you want something to help YOU specifically.
Approach: KNOW THYSELF: Perform BETTER
How do we know what works and what doesn't work for us, whether we're talking food or strength and conditioning approaches?
TEST and RE-assess. I take an active neural approach to coaching (more here). This means we test and reassess everything we do to make sure it's working for YOU, right away, right there, now. Yes, right away, in the room. As part of a detailed history, we begin with a Movement Assessment to guide the test/reassess process. This is our foundation.
From that foundation, I teach and coach skills, skills for improving strength, diet, recovery, performance. Those skills include self-assessments: i will help you build skills to perform better, to understand yourself better, and to be able to act on what works for YOU.
Exclusivity: i only take on a few new clients at a time.
The WHOLE You: We look at physical and cognitive performance so you can get better at what you do, not just in a gym, but ALL DAY LONG - working with energy, strength, stamina pain free, and with delight - in yourself and how great you feel.
AGE RESILIANT - It's always a good time to start moving more. We're plastic; we never stop adapting to stimulus.
Results: Delight in Success. Delight is moving your arm pain free for the first time in months (or years), and staying pain free. Delight is being able to squat again when you thought that couldn't happen. Delight is putting on jeans and they feel LOOSE again. Delight is breaking through a plateau in strength. Delight is waking up feeling really well rested. Delight is feeling energised all day at work. Delight is noticing that you're feeling, moving and performing better at home, at work, at life. More confident, more MOTIVATED, stronger, happier. Yes, happier.
Perform better includes:
