EP 135 - The Importance of a Coach Who Listens - Julia’s Story
Julia Mastalski, a mom and business owner, shares her experience working with Jon Vlahogiannakos as her coach.
She struggled with her fitness and weight after having a baby during the COVID-19 pandemic. Julia was skeptical of trainers in the past who didn't listen to her needs and limitations.
However, working with Jon, she experienced breakthroughs in her fitness journey, including visible weight loss and increased strength. She also found relief from muscle pains and learned about the importance of nutrition.
In her own words:
"I lost weight and I was starting to visibly look like I was losing weight, not just feeling better."
"Fat loss for a lot of women is kind of like that where it's like you feel better, but every day you look in the mirror, you don't really notice. I recommend your coaching for parents, busy professionals, and individuals with autoimmune disorders or joint issues”
Some of the big takeaways from our chat:
- Working with a coach who listens to your needs and limitations can lead to breakthroughs in your fitness journey.
- Visible weight loss and increased strength can be achieved through consistent workouts and proper nutrition.
- Coaching programs that can be done at home or in the gym are beneficial for parents and busy professionals.
- Individuals with autoimmune disorders or joint issues can benefit from a customized fitness program.
- Accountability and support from a coach can help overcome challenges and stay on track with fitness goals.

Pratik Patel, a marketing manager in Toronto, shares his journey and results from a coaching program with Strong Jon Fitness.
He initially struggled with his weight and noticed his clothes getting tighter. Through the program, he learned about the importance of nutrition and high protein intake.
He also implemented strategies like banking calories and making healthier choices when eating out.

Takeaways
Implementing simple strategies like banking calories and making healthier choices when eating out can make a big difference in weight loss.
Accountability and flexibility are key to maintaining progress while still enjoying life.
Education and mindset shifts around daily habits and weekend approaches are crucial for long-term success.
Consistency and steady progress are more important than perfection.
Having structure and guidance in workouts can lead to better results.

EP 133 - What Are You Waiting For?
The perfect time is now.
Life is always going to throw curveballs at you and it's going to get hard sometimes.
But you know what you won't regret? Taking that first step.
Maybe you're unsure because home workouts provide a new challenge or you just miss the gym entirely.
Maybe it's because you feel bad spending time away from your family, even though it's in pursuit of your health.
Or maybe you just don't want it that badly. Too many people say they do, yet when push comes to shove they are in the same spot year after year.
But you have to really ask yourself:
"𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳?"
Enjoy the episode!

As part of that mission, Body Brain Alliance provides programs for change enthusiasts, as well as high-level education on curriculum design and coaching practices for impact-first entrepreneurs. To make it simple: We teach people to change, and we teach coaches how to teach people to change
