intern2coach
become the coach you wish you had.
This is a mentorship for people who want to become strong, capable Personal Trainer coaches. You’ll be taught the way we train our lifters: with structure, direct feedback, and room to grow into your role.
Real Coaching Experience, From Day 1.
You’ll work alongside the founder, assist in live sessions, and eventually lead on your own as an IC under the Made4More banner. We’ll teach you how to write programs, manage clients, and hold space, all through the lens of values, not ego. There are no classrooms, no filler tasks, no busywork. You’ll be doing the work you came here to learn, and in the end, you’ll have the skills and standards to coach with confidence.
who is this meant for?
You’ll Thrive in This Program If You…
■ Are already committed to your own fitness
■ Care more about learning than being impressive
■ Want to coach real people, not just build an audience
■ Are dependable, observant, and open to feedback
■ Believe that communication is part of coaching
■ Align with inclusive, progressive values (if you’re looking for bro culture, look elsewhere)
SKILLS YOU’LL DEVELOP
You’ll Leave With More Than a Title
■ Program design that prioritizes safety, progression, and individual needs
■ Cueing, teaching, and adapting lifts in real time
■ Coaching presence: how to lead without taking up all the space
■ Client relationships that respect autonomy and build trust
■ How to grow a practice rooted in consistency and care
You’ll come out of this program with enough physical and mental reps to handle your first real clients with clarity, presence, and more preparation than most certified trainers.
what the program looks like
Most interns complete the program in 5 to 6 months. Some take longer. That depends on your availability, your baseline, and how quickly you integrate feedback.
You’ll move through these phases
overview & Timeline
-
Watch how we coach - how we cue, teach, educate, and demonstrate. Pay attention to pace, language, and how we adjust.
-
Co-lead sessions. Demonstrate exercises, cue movements, and provide direct client feedback.
-
Write programming for real clients, conduct consults with real prospects, provide real client check-in feedback.
-
Lead several sessions. We’ll give you honest notes. You’ll fix what needs fixing.
There’s no certificate at the end. If you’re ready, and we’re aligned, you'll start taking clients of your own and coach independently under the M4M name.
