He is one of the most positive people you will ever hear from, and he has a very family-friendly and faith-centric focus to his business. We are going to get into all kinds of topics today as well as Josh’s amazing story of how he become involved with CrossFit. Josh went to the University of Florida where he pursued exercise science. He fell in love with this area of study and soon began practical implementation of what he was learning at a local training performance institute. After finishing up his degree at Florida, Josh worked at the International Performance Institute where he had the opportunity to coach some of the top athletes in the country. Soon after this he was appointed the assistant strength coach for the New York Yankees. It wasn’t until another position after the Yankees that Josh decided to make a career change and move into CrossFit.Josh is a mentor with Two-Brain and after receiving help from Two-Brain with his own business, he wanted to also give back and help those needing help with their box. Becoming a mentor with Two-Brain is a very humbling experience, according to Josh. Two-Brain mentors go through rigorous training before their first call and participate in lifelong education after they become licensed. Josh gives us a little peek into that training. Then we'll talk about defining culture, getting employees to buy into your vision and more on this awesome episode!Links:https://twobrainbusiness.com/mentor-item/josh-martin/https://crossfitforglory.com/https://twitter.com/crossfit4gloryhttps://www.facebook.com/crossfitforglory/Contact: [email protected] Timeline:3:33 – Josh Martin introduction.8:05 – Josh’s experience working for the New York Yankees.11:54 – Influencing your children to set big goals.14:58 – What it is like to become a mentor for TwoBrain like Josh.21:08 – Experiencing being a mentor for the first time.22:02 – What is it like carrying the stress of an affiliate as their mentor.24:15 – Setting up and defining culture in the gym setting.28:52 – How to get your coaches to buy into your vision as a gym owner?35:15 – Dealing with tough clients.38:40 – The importance of family in Josh’s life.41:09 – Josh’s start into strength-and-conditioning coaching.
