Overview

The Soul of a Trainer is not a book about programming, exercises, or sets and reps.

It’s about something far more important.

It’s about why you do what you do.

Drawing on decades of experience working with fitness professionals, Thomas Plummer delivers a series of short, impactful lessons on coaching, leadership, business, burnout, and life.

This is a book that challenges you to think—not just about how you train clients, but about how you live, lead, and build your career.

• Why coaching is ultimately about changing lives
