I was looking forward to having a conversation with Kyle as someone who’s been there, done that and still doing it, and a coach that went from fully booked, to leading and educating, then starting his own companies.
Kyle is the owner of Compound Performance and the Compound App. He has 17+ years of experience working in the fitness industry coaching 20,000+ sessions, 10 years of experience in leadership positions overseeing all levels of management from individual facilities to national level positions, and 5 years of experience in entrepreneurship launching two business’s that have provided thousands of clients with growth focused solutions.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:
Kyle was the “The often injured athlete” who found training through rehab and got him curious about performance. The simplest and most effective way to achieve success as an in person personal trainer! How to shadow successful coaches (as a young coach) and learn everything from them. Why you ought to teach and educate other coaches for free as soon as possible. The lessons on the journey from packed personal coaching schedule, to managing and educating in private gyms, to building multiple businesses. The power of “old school strategies” to promoting yourself and your business. The most important place to start for coaches: financial management and literacy - know your numbers. Knowing the “who” of your audience, are you marketing to the right people? Most coaches don’t, do this _______. The perspective of “accumulation” and “intensification” in your coaching business. THIS is a crucial perspective for success! Kyle’s perspective on when a coach ought to go before coaching online. The wisdom you receive from real world coaching and how it will make you a significantly better online coach. What a GREAT online coach is doing and knowing who your competition is (this may be a reminder to step your game up). The first step in building an “Athlete For Life.” The biggest mistakes coaches make when writing programs to help clients be more athletic. If you’re doing this in your programming, you may be leading people to injury. Why conditioning is a MUST regardless of your goal, here’s what you need to work on to be able to get back on the field/court. Choosing the best exercises for people so they can continue to perform at their best. Why plyometrics are better than isometrics for regenerating tendon health and strength (and why even older clients should do it). The model of programming Kyle uses to get his clients “Ready for anything!” What is Kyle currently studying and focusing on as he’s continuing to improve as a coach and business owner.
