Coaching Short- and Long-Term Goal Setting

Clients come to us because they have some sort of a goal in mind. The problem is that goal is usually vague, at best, in their mind–and they don’t have the skill to articulate the goal and then take defined action toward it. But as effective coaches, we can help them build the skill to set, act on, and achieve fitness goals. That’s what this week is all about.

Let’s get into the Week 2 content:
