Hey listeners, this is normally when we would talk about a holiday sale or how

0:07.4

now is the right time to start with online coaching because of how much money

0:10.5

you can save. However, as I met with our marketing team earlier this month to

0:14.8

discuss promotional ideas, we found ourselves focusing on the ideal outcomes

0:19.3

for people who want to work with a coach and that called to mind how many of

0:23.1

our clients got into this for the form corrections and ended up making real

0:27.8

life transformations through strength training. We realized that the ideal

0:31.9

barbell logic client is not afraid of hard work. They don't just have goals, they

0:36.5

are driven by continual self-improvement. They pursue strength because they

0:40.7

care deeply about the people who they love who depend on them. We know that

0:45.6

invest their time. And when you care about your time that much, there is fear that

1:01.8

you could waste your time and not see the results you want. If any of this sounds

1:05.9

like you, I'm here to make you a promise. You give us six months of two to four

1:10.8

workouts a week and if you don't see changes in your strength or form, we will

1:14.9

give you all of your money back. That's all six months. The worst case scenario is

1:20.2

it ends up costing you nothing. The best case scenario is you invest in yourself

1:24.7

and you get exactly what you want out of your training. The only risk is about

1:28.7

on yourself. It's time to place that bet and put your money where your goals are.
