What does it take to be a top-tier CrossFit coach? Join coaches David Syvertsen @davesy85 and Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic as they dissect this question. They explore the importance of feedback in sharpening a coach's skills, sharing anecdotes about their own experiences and the value of constructive criticism. They also discuss the value of written evaluations and alternative methods to foster communication and growth. 

The conversation then takes a deep dive into the softer side of coaching. Traits like personality, connection capabilities, and a servant attitude take the spotlight, showcasing the significance of building strong relationships with athletes at all levels. The hosts also discuss the importance of coaches remembering their own journeys as athletes and being able to relate and support newcomers. They further shed light on the crucial aspect of maintaining enthusiasm and an active lifestyle, reinforcing the importance of living the CrossFit values.

In the final part of the discourse, the focus shifts to practical coaching techniques, especially for managing large classes. The duo highlights the importance of attention to detail, from time management to movement correction cues, in order to provide a seamless coaching experience. Wrapping up the discussion, the hosts emphasize the value of continuous feedback from both coaches and members as a powerful tool for collective growth and improvement.
