One week of coaching

Remote coaching runs on a weekly cycle. These are the four steps.

1. Train

You run the week's sessions on your own schedule and log every set. The plan is written for your gym and your hours.

2. Film

You film your working sets from the angle Daine asks for, so he can see what the last rep looked like.

3. Review

Daine goes through the logs and the footage, answers what came up during the week, and flags what he's seeing.

4. Adjust

Next week's programming arrives with loads, exercises and volume changed to match, before your next session.

Then it starts again. Your program is never more than a week old.

A coach, not an app

Your logs, your lift footage and your questions go to Daine. His programming and corrections come back. The plan changes because he watched your last session, not because a timer ran out on a template.

What you give up is the in-the-moment spot. What you keep is a program that reacts to what happened, every week, from a coach who has spent twenty years watching lifters make the mistakes you’re about to make. Filmed at the right angle, a breaking rep is as visible from a distance as from across the room.

Who it suits

You know the main lifts

You can squat, hinge and press safely without a hand on your back. Online coaching sharpens technique; it doesn't teach it from zero.

Your schedule moves

Shift work, travel, kids. Sessions happen when your day allows, and the weekly check-in doesn't care which time zone you logged from.

You moved away, or were never in New Jersey. The programming and the standard travel with you.

Never trained before? Start with 1-on-1 personal training if you can get to Bergen County, and move online once your form is solid. If you can’t, say so when you get in touch and Daine will tell you whether online will work for where you’re starting.

Common questions

How is this different from a workout app?

An app gives you a program. Here, Daine writes yours, watches your lift videos, and changes next week's sessions based on what he saw.

What does a check-in look like?

You log your sessions and film your working sets. Once a week Daine reviews all of it, answers your questions, and sends the next week's programming. You can message him between check-ins.

I've never lifted before. Can I start online?

It's usually not the best first step, because the big lifts are learned fastest in person. If you're near Bergen County, start with 1-on-1 sessions and move online once your form is solid. If you're not, tell Daine where you're starting and he'll say whether online will work.

What equipment do I need?

A commercial gym membership covers it. A home or garage setup works too. Daine writes the programming around what you have.
