As some of you may know, recently I have just acquired the services of a contest coach (Josh Lenartowicz) and I am kicking myself as to why I had not done this earlier. I’ll share some of the reasons as to why I had tried to do it mostly by myself and maybe they are some of the same reasons that could be holding you back from racing towards your goals.
- I thought by now I should have enough knowledge and dedication that I should be able to do this by myself
- I thought It would reflect poorly on me as a coach that I had my own coach
- I Didn’t want to get weekly photos taken. I dislike having my photo taken, I know may be difficult for some of the younger readers to relate with.
Very few people have made progress in any field without a coach or mentor. Most World class athletes and business tycoons have a coach and continue to get coached well after their initial successes. Here are some possible benefits of getting a coach on board with your competition preparation.
- Better results in a shorter amount of time. Choose a coach who has already Experienced what you want to achieve.
- Faster learning, why make all the same mistakes that other people have already made and learned from?
- Become part of a team, most coaches have several competitors at a time, for the most part you are all doing similar things and you can all help each when you get stuck.
- Coach will have the objectivity that most people lack when it comes to their own bodies.
- Posing especially is something you just can’t learn to do by yourself.
- Support and confidence when attempting something new.
- Ideas for ways to improve that you may not see - awareness of blind spots in your physique, training, nutrition and mindset.
- A Coach will give you the cold truth others may not want to tell you
- A Great coach will attend to your mental and physical wellbeing while getting you into your best shape. No point having a great body when your mind and the rest of your life has fallen to pieces!
