Is calling someone "lazy" actually good coaching?
In this video, I'm reacting to Kelsey Rhae's recent coaching rant and using it as an opportunity to talk about something much bigger: what evidence-based coaching actually looks like. Reminder, she is not a coach and holds zero credentials but calls herself one.
As an ACE Certified Personal Trainer and ACE Fitness Nutrition Specialist, I break down the difference between accountability and shame, why qualifications and scope of practice matter, what Meta's advertising policies actually say, and how good coaches approach nutrition and behavior change.
Whether you're looking for a coach or simply trying to improve your own health and fitness, my hope is that you'll walk away with a better understanding of what good coaching should sound like and the questions you should be asking before trusting someone with your health.
I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. What do you think makes a great coach?
