I've had so many great conversations with friends and colleagues about what we see happening in the fitness industry, and thought to myself, "I wish we would have recorded that." 
...So that's exactly what the Coaches Corner is about. 
In this second installment of a conversation I had with Jon Le Tocq of Storm Force Fitness, we discuss how people consider criticism as a negative thing, whereas people with a growth mindset take that criticism as feedback.
We also speak on how to not just gather information, but take new information, apply it, and figure out how to tweak and adjust the principles to apply to different clients, as well as different aspects of life.
We round out the episode with a great discussion around the difference between exercising and training. Whilst there is a time and a place for both, training is in my mind far superior, because it forces you to look at areas of your health and fitness that may be lacking, that you can then target through a well rounded training, nutrition, recovery and stress management plan.
Fitness for me is being able to do whatever I want to do, at any time, with minimal limitations, because I've prepared myself to be able to perform at a multitude of tasks across a broad spectrum of skills acquired through a targeted, periodised training program.
Please note that the original conversation went for about 90 minutes, so I recommend listening to the entirety of the conversation to understand the full context, as there is some crossover between the topics we cover...which will be/have been dropped as separate episodes.

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."
The odds were stacked against me:
● Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work, abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years period of my life
● Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping school
● At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new life in the workforce - 2000
14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier, at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning coach
38+: The next evolution begins
