ERF 978: Will AI Replace Your Fitness Coach, and Why Online Coaching Gets Better Results Than In-Person

Work With Me 1:1 Coaching - https://ericrobertsfitness.com/erf-1on1.html On today's pod, Sophie and I are recording live in Miami and diving into whether AI is going to replace your fitness coach and why online coaching gets better results than in-person. AI can write you a workout plan, but it can't check in on you, hold you accountable, or adjust when life gets in the way. If you've ever thought about using ChatGPT as your coach or wondered if a personal trainer is enough, this episode is for you.

Join my Clubhouse App - https://ericrobertsfitness.com/clubhouse-page.html On today's episode, I'm breaking down exactly why group classes like Orange Theory, Peloton, and F45 are not designed to build the body you want — even if you're working your ass off. I'm covering six specific reasons why these workouts fall short when it comes to building muscle and changing your physique, from lack of progressive overload to what these classes are actually doing to your cortisol, your sleep, and your hunger.
