I’m not sure who thought it was a good idea to invite Dr Spencer Nadolsky, Bryan Krahn, and Dr Mike Israetel onto the podcast all at the same time to talk about coach ownership over the client result and experience. We far too often see coaches in social media blame clients for not adhering to programs when in fact it’s on the coach to use whatever resources and attempts at communicating to work with the client to achieve success. We discuss in depth this issue. We also hit heavy on the topic of firing clients. Circumstances where it’s needed and how poor it appears when fitness professionals brag about doing it. Somehow the topic of “mansplaining” got loose in this episode. You will need to listen in to see how that turned out. And this charade then went deeper down the hole into the issue of having romantic relationships with clients. Tune in to this fantastic fiasco for the whole story. Special Guests: Bryan Krahn, Dr. Mike Israetel, and Dr. Spencer Nadolsky. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thefitnessdevil/support
