I speak with Wes Showalter about training to age well and keep kicking ass for years to come.
Wes "Showdub" Showalter is a Chicago-based trainer and group fitness instructor. He's also a coach for other coaches, helping to run the awesome mentoring and mastermind group Strength Faction.
Wes is a super funny, authentic and down to earth guy. He's also an excellent coach who cares deeply about his clients and about helping others in our industry.
I wanted to talk to Wes both about his work as a coach as well as his personal fitness practices and routines.
What unfolded was an awesome conversation about how to train intelligently, have fun and take care of yourself so you can live a great life outside the gym for years to come.
Some topics covered include:
~Why we love training gen pop clients (and what that means)
~What makes a good coach or trainer
~Wes's process for helping new clients, including some of his favorite exercises and coaching tools
~Why you don't need to crush yourself every workout to see results
~What keeps Wes motivated to work out and what his routine looks like
~Our thoughts on aging the impact of fitness
~The importance of sleep, steps and water
~What it means to take a sustainable approach to fitness
You should definitely connect with Wes because he's an awesome coach and a very entertaining follow:
