When you’re seeking to hire a fitness and nutrition coach, skepticism is natural—and it’s smart. After all, the wellness industry is flooded with quick fixes, empty promises, and one-size-fits-all solutions. You should be cautious, ask tough questions, and ensure that the coach and program you choose are the right fit for you. But once you find the plan that meets your needs, the time for skepticism ends. That’s when it’s time to go all-in, commit fully, and take control of your health and your future.
Step One: Be Skeptical and Thorough
At CrossFit Veneration, we encourage skepticism. In fact, when you walk through our doors for your Free Intro consultation, we expect you to come armed with questions—50 of them if necessary.
Why? Because this is about you. This is about solving the problems holding you back and achieving the goals you’ve been struggling to reach. We want to understand exactly what you’re looking to accomplish and what’s kept you from getting there. To do that, we’ll ask our own set of questions to make sure that our coaching and approach are the right fit for your needs.
This process is thorough because it has to be. We don’t sell generic programs. We offer custom-tailored coaching designed to improve your quality of life, add years to your lifespan, and help you engage fully with your loved ones and passions. We’re not just finding out if we can help you; we’re making sure we’re the perfect solution for your unique needs.
Step Two: When You Know, Act Immediately
Once we’ve answered your questions and identified the right plan for you, skepticism has served its purpose. The next step is to act decisively.
Here’s the truth: The decision to “go home and think about it” rarely leads to a better outcome. It’s a delay tactic. It’s giving fear, uncertainty, and discomfort a chance to take control. And more often than not, people who walk out the door don’t come back.
As coaches, we see this far too often. Someone comes in, shares their struggles, and expresses the desire to change. But nerves take over. They walk out, intending to weigh their options, and never return. And for some of those people, that decision costs them dearly.
The Hard Truth: Why We’re Relentless
The hardest part of our job isn’t the coaching, the programming, or the long hours—it’s knowing we couldn’t reach someone who desperately needed our help.
What keeps me up at night are the people in my community who walked out of our gym instead of starting or continuing their journey with us. Months or years later, I learn they’ve succumbed to chronic illnesses—illnesses that could have been prevented if they had taken action.
They were nervous, skeptical, and scared of the changes they wanted to make. And when they let those emotions dictate their decision to “go home and think about it,” I failed them. I wasn’t candid enough. I didn’t explain that the discomfort of that decision pales in comparison to the cost of not taking action.
So now, we’re crystal clear: When you sit down with us and share what you want to achieve, we’re committed to helping you start that day. We’re not here to sell you something; we’re here to help you change—or even save—your life.
Step Three: Go All-In for You
Once you’ve recognized that we’re the solution to your problem, it’s time to commit fully. Half measures won’t work. Doubt and hesitation won’t get you where you want to go.
Our team at CrossFit Veneration is here to guide you, hold you accountable, and give you the tools to succeed. But we can only do that if you’re ready to trust the process and trust yourself. You’ve already taken the hardest step by seeking out help. Now it’s time to lean in and take action.
Final Thoughts
Be skeptical. Do your research. Ask the hard questions. But when you find a coach and a program that align with your goals, set the skepticism aside and go all-in. Your health and quality of life are too important to put on hold.
At CrossFit Veneration, we don’t just care about fitness—we care about you. And when you walk through our doors, you’ll feel that commitment from the very first moment. Let’s get started today—because your life is worth it.
