Hi 👋 My name's Jen, and I’ve been listening to Mind Pump for over 5 years and have implemented many things the guys talk about. The thing is… I work as a coach at F45 and started to run their 45-day Challenges for members. Even though I know this type of training will get people quick results but then plateau hard, I am having a hard time balancing the conflicting messages between what I know works long term vs. coaching at F45. I love the functional training modalities and know there’s a benefit to it, especially as members age, but I’m not sure how to go about properly coaching members who do the fat loss muscle gain challenge in a way that won’t steer them in the wrong direction on a long-term weight loss and gain roller coaster. How can I navigate this situation?
