The No-BS Coaching Course, That Fills the Gaps Your Cert Left Behind ✅
Certifications gave you theory.
This course gives you tools.
Learn how to coach real people, build a real business, and stop second-guessing yourself every step of the way.

I used to think more certifications would fix the gaps in my coaching. So I got the BSc, the MSc, the CSCS - everything.
But even after all that, I still didn’t feel confident programming, managing client pain, communicating effectively, or getting clients without burning out on social media.
What changed? I stopped chasing credentials and started building practical systems - evidence-based tools that actually worked in the real world.
This course is everything I wish someone had taught me when I started. No fluff. Just the stuff that works.

💥 Sound familiar?
❌ You feel awkward selling and struggle to retain clients
❌ You're drowning in info but lack a clear system
❌ A client reports pain and you're not sure how to help
❌ You second-guess your programming and progressions

You’ve done the certifications. Maybe even a degree. But when it comes to helping real people, selling your services, or writing programs that actually work - you’re left guessing.
This is why I created Beyond The Textbook, a coaching course that teaches you the missing skills the textbook can't. The skills that actually move the needle.

What You’ll Leave With:
✅ A plug-and-play framework for writing better programs
✅ Confidence to manage pain and coach movement ethically
✅ Clear communication skills to drive habit change
✅ A no-sleaze approach to sales and marketing
