#586 The Fitness Industry's Biggest Coaching Scam
About this episode
Joe DeFranco exposes a major scam in the fitness industry regarding influencers misrepresenting their coaching relationships with celebrities.
In this episode, Joe exposes what he considers one of the fitness industry's biggest coaching scams: influencers who train a celebrity or pro athlete ONE TIME, film the workout, snap a picture — and then portray themselves as their "coach." Joe explains why "putting someone through a workout" and actually COACHING them are two completely different things. From long-term programming and problem-solving to managing injuries, plateaus, recovery, and real-world setbacks, you'll learn what separates an experienced coach from a great content creator. If you've ever purchased an online program — or hired a coach based on their social media following — this is an episode you'll want to hear! *For a full list of Show Notes + Timestamps visit www.IndustrialStrengthShow.com .
