1.3 Million Reasons to STOP Physique Coaching

May 6, 2026 · 43 min

Show notes

This week, Tom and Dan are back with a "heavy-hitting episode" that blends high-level coaching strategy with a healthy dose of "grinds my gears."

We delve into the 1.3 million people who applied for the London Marathon and why that is a massive, untapped goldmine for online coaches.

If you aren’t learning about gait, thresholds, and respiratory systems, you’re leaving money on the table.

We also take a flamethrower to the content styles that need to die in 2026—from the "Corporate Man" niche call-outs to the laziness of recipe reaction reels.

Chapters:
0:00 The Indian vs. Chinese Food Debate
3:13 Personal Updates and Moving Back to the UK
5:41 UK Summers and Tropical Humidity
9:33 Analysing the London Marathon Record
16:54 The Massive Potential for Running Coaches
29:00 The Problem with Coaches Seeking Handouts
31:43 Content Styles That Need to Get in the Bin
41:48 Recommendations and Outro
