Finding Fulfillment and Financial Security as an Online Fitness Coach

ADAPTING AND IMPROVING AS An Online Fitness COACH

My name is Erwin Regidor, and I’ve been a fitness coach since 2010. That’s when I left my career in banking behind and, in just a few years, I was the program director and head coach of one of the first CrossFit gyms in Shanghai and mainland China. I spent the next four years evolving in this role and growing the business, but something was still missing—I felt unfulfilled.

In 2017, I took a leap and went completely online as ALFA Coaching. It was scary because I was starting from scratch. Without the salary I once had, I relied on the relationships, rapport, and reputation I had already built. Still, I was worried about making money, finding clients, and navigating the online world.

Luckily, I had already been working on CCP. Through the frameworks of assessment, program design, nutrition, lifestyle/mindset coaching, and some business knowledge, I developed the tools I needed to work 1:1 with my clients.

Then in early 2020 the pandemic hit.

Thankfully, I had been working online for three years, so shifting my clients from the gym to working out at home was a smooth transition, because I already had all these frameworks in place. 2020 ended up being my highest net revenue year, as I was able to retain existing clients and acquire new clients during the pandemic.

GAINING THE SKILLS TO SUCCEED

CCP really honed my ability to build rapport and relationships through the consultation process. This was a huge piece for me. In my view, the assessment, program design, nutrition, and lifestyle habits are all icing on this cake. CCP has a unique way of developing a coach to look outside of the X' and O's. Overall, this has allowed me to simplify things, really listen to the client, and ultimately implement what they need. I can now reliably create trust and, more importantly, results for my clients.

CCP isn't like any other certification on the market. What you learn from CCP is how to become a total coach.

LIFE SINCE CCP…

I now have 30 clients through ALFA Coaching and make a comfortable 6 figure income. This affords me the freedom and flexibility to take an average of five weeks off per year (but I can really take whatever I need now). And, most importantly, my wife and I had a son this year, and I knew that I was in a stable position to welcome him.
