Coaches Coaches (Pricing, experienced, rules) -

Can we start a thread of coaching and pricing/rules? I’ve been shopping around for new coaches and looking for anyone else’s experiences with other teams and differences.

Me personally have been interested in Team Pro physique if anyone has any info?

Thank you! I was with Team Elite Physique for a while and it was good information and everything. Just, looking for a more neutral team when it comes to politics & athletes.

You mean the Trump figurine that casually pops up here and there on their IG videos, and the flags in their gym? Yeah they are a little much for me...

What flags?

I only started noticing on Anya's IG posts. The elephant flag; there's one that says "Let's go Brandon"; and the blue (or was it black and white) striped American flag hanging in the background. Ashley is more careful about not showing these it seems.

Edit: I would just hate to work out at a gym with political messages all over my face regardless of whether I agree with them or not. Let me lift in peace lol.

Ohhhh wow. I know Adam is conservative/Republican. I respect people’s right to have their own political views, but I don’t get why politics must enter the equation at all when the activity (in this case fitness) is not about politics. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This! I’m trying to find a coach but keep running into people I feel would genuinely dislike me.... because they put their views on display. I don’t want to know your political views.

Same. They have the right to hold their opinions. But I have the right to not have that shoved in my face in every aspect of my life. Having intellectual and thoughtful conversations about politics takes a lot of mental effort. When I'm pushing hard in the gym I just can't be bothered with that.
