It feels counterintuitive to specialize instead of generalizing, but coaches who niche down end up making more money. The trick is to choose a niche correctly. Generalizing will hurt your business in the long run.
It is not helpful or necessary to try to appeal to everyone.
Two important questions to ask yourself when choosing a niche market are:
Once these two questions are answered, you are on your way.
Do you consider yourself to be bold and confident enough to play a major role in the lives of other people? Or do you think you have a passion for teaching or helping people to succeed by guiding them towards their short or long term goals?
If so, you probably might be considering the kind of career you can venture into with these abilities. I believe you should actually start thinking about taking up a career as a professional trainer/coach. [Read more…]
AntioxidantsAntioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. When our body cells use oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) which can cause damage. Antioxidants act as “free radical scavengers” and prevent and repair the damage done by these free radicals.
Sleep hygiene
Every person wants to live a healthy and happy life, but most of us are careless in many useful things which helps us to improve our health and daily life. Apart from healthy eating habits, proper sleep is one of the most important things to be healthy, fresh and happy.
Sleep hygiene is a practice or habit which follows a proper schedule for sleep which is necessary for the daytime alertness. It also includes the behaviors and rituals towards the sleep or in a simple way it is your approach towards the sleep.
In modern day life sleep, hygiene education must be given to the students, not at school levels but also at college and university levels as sleep education is the important section in the cognitive-behavioral therapy used to treat insomnia.
Effect of environment on sleeping hygiene:
Role of the environment is very important in every person’s life as a person feels comfortable in a stable and friendly environment so in the same sleeping environment is also very important for the peaceful and sound sleep. Soo you should develop such a comfortable environment which improves your sleeping time and sleeping hygiene.
You can’t think about what you don’t want to think about without thinking about it. Think about it; better yet, don’t think about it, and you’ll get my point.
If your clients are more focused on what they don’t want, instead of what they do want, they will most likely be getting just that – exactly what they don’t want.
The Athlete who is constantly focusing on ‘not losing’ will typically lose more than the athlete who consistently focuses on ‘always winning’.
How Sleep Affects Appetite
Having an adequate, high-quality, restful sleep is an important part of adhering to healthy eating plans. Metabolic problems associated with overeating include high body mass index (BMI) and long-term health risks like obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some types of cancer. The National Sleep Foundation recommends that adults aged 18-64 years should have sleep duration of 7-9 hours every day (Hirshkowitz, Whiton & Albert et al., 2015).
Sleep-related problems can affect how our bodies regulate food intake and can increase hunger and our appetite to eat more food.

The typical spots are getting crowded. Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, and so on. But there’s just one place that is shockingly not being infiltrated as much as it should be…
LinkedIn.
If you aren’t on LinkedIn (just signing up doesn’t count), then you’re missing out on a huge slice of the client pie.
It’s the hottest social media network to tap into in 2019 if you’re wanting to let the floodgates open to new clients. 84% of LinkedIn users say they’ve received several business opportunities through the platform (as studied in the Sales and LinkedIn Study).
