My gym coaching journey - @kevinfromthegym

I’m a gym coach because I like simple, sustainable progress — the kind you can keep for years, not weeks.

I didn’t start with plans to coach anyone. I started because I got curious. I wanted to understand why some people train for months and barely change, while others move forward steadily — and how to get results without turning your body into a battlefield. So I began learning properly: training fundamentals, recovery, nutrition, habits. I read books, listened to experienced coaches, tried different approaches, and tested everything on myself until it stopped being “tips” and became a system that actually worked in real life.

At some point people around me started asking questions. “What are you doing in the gym?” “How did you get that result?” “Can you help me build a plan?” I started helping informally, then it turned into regular coaching — the same people coming back, making progress, and telling others.

Now I work with a small group of clients through personal and online coaching. My job is to make training clear and doable: set a goal, build a plan that fits your schedule, keep you consistent, and adjust when life happens. I’m still learning all the time — reading, following new research, refining the details — but the core stays the same: realistic training, steady progress, and results that don’t cost you your health.
