FAQ
Got questions?
Everything you need to know about coaching with One Better Athletic.
Getting started
Who is this coaching for?
Athletes who want an edge in their season, busy people who want to train like an athlete, and anyone coming back from injury who has been cleared to train.
I'm a beginner. Is this for me?
Yes. Your program is written for where you are now, not where an athlete is. It builds from there as you get stronger and fitter.
Do I need to play a sport?
No. Training Only and Nutrition Only suit anyone who wants to train and eat like an athlete. Athlete Performance is built around a playing season, so it is the one for people who play.
How do I get started?
Fill in the form on the home page or message @onebetterathletic on Instagram. Tell me your goals, your training and your week, and I will get back to you about availability.
What happens on the call?
It is a short chat about where you are, where you want to be, your schedule and anything that affects your training. If there is a spot and it is a fit, we pick the right plan together.
Why are spots limited?
I coach every client myself, around my own playing schedule, so I only take on a small number of people at a time.
Plans
What's the difference between the three plans?
- Training Only: an 8-week program run as two 4-week blocks, with weekly check-ins.
- Athlete Performance: a season-aware program plus calorie and macro targets, a meal plan, recipes and a shopping list. Includes weekly check-ins, WhatsApp access and a monthly program update.
- Nutrition Only: calorie and macro targets, a meal plan, recipes and a weekly shopping list, with weekly check-ins.
Which plan should I pick?
If you play a sport, Athlete Performance. If you mainly want a training program, Training Only. If your training is sorted and you want your eating dialled in, Nutrition Only. Not sure? Pick “Not sure yet” on the form and we will work it out on the call.
Training
How do I get my program?
Your program sits in your own client sheet, which works on your phone. Every exercise has a demo video.
How many days a week will I train?
That depends on your goals and your week. Tell me how many days you can train and your program is built around it.
What equipment do I need?
Most programs are written for a gym. Tell me what you have access to and your program is built around it.
How long is the program?
Training Only is an 8-week program run as two 4-week blocks, and block 2 is built from your progress in block 1. Athlete Performance is updated every month and follows your season: off-season, pre-season and in-season.
I'm coming back from injury. Can you help?
Once your physio or doctor has cleared you to train, yes. I don’t do injury rehab. I help you rebuild your speed, strength and fitness after it.
Nutrition
What do I get with nutrition?
A daily calorie target, protein, carb and fat (macro) targets, a meal plan built to fuel your training, recipes and a weekly shopping list.
Do I have to eat foods I don't like?
No. Tell me what you don't eat and what you love, and your meal plan is built around it.
Is the shopping list made for where I live?
Yes. It is written for your local supermarket, with an estimated weekly cost.
Check-ins and support
How do check-ins work?
Once a week you send me a short check-in on your training, body weight, energy and sleep. I review it and adjust your program, or your calories and macros, to fit your needs.
How much contact will I have with you?
Every plan includes weekly check-ins with me. Athlete Performance also gets WhatsApp access, with replies within 24 hours on weekdays.
You're based in France. Does that matter?
No. Everything is online, so you can be anywhere in the world.
Payments
How do payments work?
Plans are paid monthly, in your own currency: AUD, USD or EUR.
Is there a founding offer?
Yes. The first 10 clients get 20% off, locked in for as long as they stay.
