Explain where you are starting.

Tell your coach about your training experience and the equipment you use. Do not assume that a routine written for someone else is the right starting point for you.

Give learning a place in the plan.

Ask about the movements in your program and how to record your sessions. One-to-one coaching gives you room to bring questions, while check-ins help keep the conversation going between sessions.

Keep healthcare advice separate.
