How coaching works from a distance

Diogo is based in South Florida and coaches online. Your workouts live in the Trainerize app, you weigh in twice a week, you send progress photos every two weeks, and we talk on a weekly call — for Centennial that is Mountain time, two hours behind me, so your evening call is my later evening. Between calls, you can message me with questions.

Most people here report some activity. What does coaching add?

The part that does not happen on its own: progression. The CDC’s estimate above says only about one in eight adults in Centennial report no leisure-time activity, so the typical reader here already moves. What usually goes missing is a strength program that keeps moving forward: the lifting that stalled a year ago, the seasons that keep resetting it, the next twelve weeks that never got written. Coaching writes them, around the activities you already do, and reads your log every week. It also means a program that progresses at your pace and plans recovery in. The rest of your week stays yours.

I work from home. How do I stop the day from swallowing my session?

By putting the session in the calendar before the meetings arrive. More than a quarter of workers here work from home, and the risk with a home day is not lack of time but lack of a boundary. The plan sets one: the same start time on the same days, before the first call or straight after the last, with a twenty-minute version for days that run over. In winter, with January lows in the high teens at the Denver station above, a home setup of dumbbells and a bench saves the drive to the gym on the coldest mornings. The weekly call moves sessions when a week fills up.
