Jacob Trout — A Chat With My Old Fitness Coach On Short-Term Obsession, Body Insecurities, & Balance | MTFP Ep.109
This was a fun episode for me because Jake was my online fitness coach for about two years back in 2014-2016. He helped me win my natural (drug-tested) bodybuilding pro card and was a huge help to me when I first started my online coaching business. Now, Jake is working a full 9-5 job while ramping up his fitness coaching business once again. He's also an IPE Pro Natural Bodybuilder (and a stand-up guy).
In this episode, we talk about:
-Reminiscing about when me and Jake worked together
-Jake's coaching background with The Strength Guys
-How I was as an online coaching client
-How fitness has stayed constant while other things change
-How fitness keeps us grounded
-How Jake is working a full-time job and doing online coaching on the side
-Relating to clients during fat loss phases
-"Stealth dieting"
-Male insecurities around body image
-Dealing with "letting yourself go" compared to your past self
-The evolution of motivators around working out
-Why you shouldn't ever make your own plans
-Staying motivated when working out from home
-Making better decisions with your nutrition
-How Jake and I eat on a regular basis
-The importance of short-term "obsession"
-How do we know who to listen to for fitness advice?
-Jake's alternate-reality career
-And much more!
