Tim Riley and Zack Zillner take the Coach 'Em Up Podcast live at their second annual conference, fielding real-time audience questions with moderator Tatum Brandt. Topics include building gym culture, online coaching transitions, in-season vs. off-season programming, managing bad training days, and the early mentors who literally changed their lives. Oh, and someone got Rhabdo...


Recorded live at the Coach 'Em Up Conference, this episode is part Q&A, part therapy session, and part cautionary tale about running Pat Davidson's MASS program in August heat. Tim and Zack break down what separates elite strength coaches from general population trainers, why your clients are buying YOU and not your program, and how a single conversation mid-session can flip an athlete's entire week. Tim gets real about a mentor who refused to give up on him in high school while Zack talks about getting thrown into the fire at Kansas under Andrea Hudy.. If you coach, train, or are building something in the fitness space, this one's for you!
