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 Round Rock that is Central time, an hour behind me, so the call sits comfortably in your evening. Between calls, you can message me with questions.

I don’t commute. Why do I still skip workouts?

Because a day without edges has no natural slot for anything. The figure above says about a quarter of workers in Round Rock work from home, and the hour that used to be the drive usually gets eaten by email instead of turned into a session. The fix is structure, not motivation: the plan gives each training day a start time, the same one every week, and treats it as the first appointment of the day or the last. When work runs over, a twenty-minute version keeps the day from becoming a zero. The weekly video call needs only the broadband nearly every household here already has.

Should my program change between summer and winter?

The lifting should not; the conditioning should. The Austin Camp Mabry station above, the hub’s own and the nearest with a full record, shows about a third of the year at or above 90 F, so summer outdoor work is short and early, and the plan leans on indoor conditioning, a bike, a rower or short circuits, in the hot months. January lows in the low forties at that station make winter the easy season, and that is when longer runs, rucks and hikes come back outside. Keeping the strength sessions identical all year is what lets them progress. Changing only the conditioning by season means the summer never costs you the strength you built in spring. The weekly call is where the seasonal switch is made, so nothing about it is left to memory.
