#70: Bailey Lau on Training for Strength, Having Great Coaches, Tracking Progress in the Gym, and MORE!

May 18, 2022

Bailey Lau (@baileylaufit) is a personal trainer based in Edmonton, Alberta. Bailey trains women with a focus on building strength both in person and online. Bailey’s online group coaching for women is called Forever Strength which she co-coaches with Andrew Coates, and they also co-host the Forever Strength Podcast.

Bailey helps women get strong. Training for strength and performance is how she structures training for all her clients, as well as herself. This means a focus on chasing physical goals in the gym as opposed to only chasing aesthetic goals. The beauty is that the aesthetic goals often come along with this as a “side effect”. That, and there’s no better feeling than feeling strong and powerful.

Bailey has had some amazing coaches and mentors throughout her life and journey through fitness. We spoke about these wonderful people, and how important it is for almost everyone to have a coach either in fitness or other aspects of our lives.

One really easy way to ensure you’re making progress in the gym, is to simply start tracking what you’re doing. This is low-hanging-fruit that many people are missing out on. After all, if you’re not tracking what you’re doing, how would you ever even be able to tell if you’re making progress? We spoke about this, and other ways to measure progress in the gym.

Be sure to follow Bailey on IG and check out the Forever Strength Podcast. And don’t be shy to say hello!
