Who is the best coach you ever had and why?
The best coach I’ve ever had was a personal trainer from Clemson. He worked with me at the end of my high school season, and it made me realize how much better I could’ve been with the help of a professional trainer sooner. It was one of the primary reasons I decided to become a trainer for young athletes.
