His lab contains almost 600 subjects (it’s a high school) and Ray is constantly seeking new ways to teach and coach. Many of these kids are high-level athletes; just as many don’t want to be in the class at all. He’s always trying new things, but this cross-pollination of students means every innovation has to satisfy two standards: It has to make people fitter; It has to make people happier.Ray coined the phrase we repeat at Catalyst often: “Exercise until you’re happy.” It’s the base of the hierarchy he teaches students. He also teaches research skepticism: how to read and rank the value of “research.” Imagine a generation of people who believe what they read on Facebook: that’s what’s coming, except for the students in Ray’s classes.Timeline:1:33 – Ray Gowlett Introduction2:44 – The top ten really simple coaching habits every coach should adopt4:02 – The importance of having mentors and coaches throughout your life4:46 – Coaching Habit 1: Keeping your coaching cues to three or less9:26 – Coaching Habit 2: Learn about personality types to effectively adapt to clients11:03 – Personality tools to determine your personality type12:33 – Coaching Habit 3: Being a different coach for every person15:23 – Coaching Habit 4: Give clients what they want and not what you want17:25 – Coaching Habit 5: See the big picture for your business and clients19:58 – Coaching Habit 6: Eliminate arrogant coaching22:52 – Ridiculous and arrogant posts from CrossFit box owners23:35 – Coaching Habit 7: Be weary of the next big thing25:35 – Cyclical knowledge and trends within the fitness industry26:23 – Coaching Habit 8: Learning about understanding evidence and research29:49 – Coaching Habit 9: Sharpening the saw and being critical of new ideas31:38 – Coaching Habit 10: Understand all the different needs and positions of your clients33:20 – Understanding projection bias within your program35:41 – Coaching Habit 11: Be the voice your client wants to hear38:38 – The way in which you should talk to your clients39:46 – Coaching Habit 12: Bend don’t break principle41:26 – The many types of conjugated periodizat
