We have an exciting mini-series coming up on “Inside the Box.” For the month of November we’re working with Tommy Alfinito, owner and head trainer atCrossFit Mount Laurel. Tommy has grown his box to over 300 members in under 4 years and we think he has great tips that all box owners can benefit from. He also started CFMTL Blueprint to offer programming, tips, and other advice to box owners and athletes. Be sure to check it out!
We know how difficult it is to fit everything you need to do into a single day. Your day is consumed with running your gym, managing your finances, and helping your members. But if you’re not also taking steps to ensure your team is knowledgeable and up-to-date on health, nutrition, mobility, and helping people meet their fitness goals, you’re missing out on a crucial aspect of running your business. That’s according to Tommy Alfinito, owner of CrossFit Mount Laurel and creator of CFMTL Blueprint. In his experience, having educated and enthusiastic coaches helps create enthusiastic athletes who are more likely to stay engaged with your programming. Watch our video below to hear more about his required reading curriculum.
Tommy and Dana mention “Starting Strength” and “Anatomy of Movement” if you’re interested in checking them out for yourself.
What books would you suggest be on every coach’s required reading list?
