You know that being a strength coach is the best job in the world, but so does everyone else and the competition for jobs is huge. There is always another coach ready to replace you the second you quit or get fired, often working for even less money.

Employers understand this market dynamic and take full advantage of it. The trend of our industry is longer hours, less money, less security, and less quality of life as a result. If you’re reading this, you’re probably suffering from one, some or all these problems.
Success leaves clues

But thankfully there are successful coaches out there who buck this trend. They get paid well for their work, have good job security, and enjoy a quality of life that means you avoid the burnout that plagues so many other coaches.
Now we can help you to become one of them. We’ve reverse engineered the traits of the most successful coaches in the industry, and as a member of Strength Coach Network you can learn first-hand from them, receive mentorship from coaches who have gone there before you, and get strategic advice on how to rapidly ascend the coaching ladder to directorships (and stay there!).

It's time to invest in education that serves you

Traditional education pathways are great. But a marginally better power clean or a higher jump ultimately serve the end user of training- the athlete. True coach education should serve the coach everywhere in your life: not just in training, but in your bank account, your relationships inside and out of work, and in your career progression.
At Strength Coach Network we offer holistic, individualized coach education to provide you with the knowledge, skills, connections, and career strategy to help you get your dream job, whether that is the high school down the road or a major professional organisation.

More money, more results, more quality of life

What use is being a strength coach if you go through life living from paycheck to paycheck, spending 10 hours per day on the floor, getting a little bit better at delivering the same programme again and again, year after year? Your employer won’t notice or care, but your spouse WILL, and not in a good way.

Let’s be blunt. Getting an internship, GA or even an entry level assistant job is just about hard work. Be enthusiastic, available, likeable and if you put in enough time, someone somewhere will hire you. But many a successful intern has sucked as a salaried coach, been passed over for promotions, or even fired.
If you want to put on the big boy or girl pants and be the kind of coach that gets a big time title or salary, it’s all about results. And what gets results in the real word, in true high-performance environments is vastly different to what you learned in university or accreditation.
The best coaches treat themselves like a business. Like all successful businesses they learn to work ON the system rather than IN the system. True coaching success doesn't come from being on the floor with athletes.
It comes from developing the systems and processes that produce predictable success, in selling oneself, being an effective communicator, and becoming the hub through which important decisions and information flows within your organisation.

Don’t ask those on the side line how to play the game

Your degree from university serves a purpose, but telling coaches in the trenches how to reach the very top of the field is not one of them. Respectfully, most of the professors you learned from have never worked in sport. Let alone elite level sport.
Their curriculum is an exercise in box checking, and fail to accurately represent the real problems facing strength coaches in team environments like yours. This is typical of the fundamental disconnect between what universities teach, and what the elite level demands.
Rather than work forwards like so many, we worked backwards from what successful coaches are actually doing, and we brought them to Strength Coach Network for you to learn from

You are in an arms race
You are in an arms race
Do not be the average strength coach. The average coach is a decent all rounder, applies for jobs cold, and attends a few clinics or conferences per year. The average coach also spends years being underpaid and overworked as a low level assistant.
The sooner you start distinguishing yourself from what is average, the faster you’ll rise up the ranks and earn the kind of pay, title and security that you want.
You are in an arms race that never stops. You must be constantly working on your craft, updating your skillset and refining your career strategy to cultivate opportunities and convert them into well-paid, sought-after jobs.

How I reached the elite level after just 3 years
How I reached the elite level after just 3 years
Early on in my career, I subconsciously applied the same principles that we espouse at Strength Coach Network to rise quickly up the career ladder. 3 years after starting grad school I was working for the University of Maryland. A Power 5 football conference that just had some of the best NFL talent and draft picks.
The likes of Darrius Heyward-Bey and Shawne Merriman just graduated from Maryland and were in the NFL. I also arrived on campus at the same time as a true freshman named Stefon Diggs (who has now gone on to multiple All Pro and Pro Bowl NFL years).
I was able to use my small, but powerful, network to help me move from Maryland to a storied Power 5 Football Program - The University of Iowa. In less than 2 years from arriving at Iowa I helped the team achieve a perfect 12-0 regular season ending in a Rose Bowl berth.
Inside Strength Coach Network we’ll help you to identify exactly what it is you need to unlock your potential and accelerate your career.
We’ll take you through our in-house auditing process to identify your strengths and weaknesses, provide you with specific resources, help you to design an individualized career plan of action, then keep you accountable through the process to achieve your goals.
If a meticulous approach like this is necessary to train world class athletes, why will anything less suffice for you and your career?
