• From Rugby at Cal to Online SUF-CPT: Coach Caleb: caleb_tomasin 

You don’t need a massive following to build a real coaching business. You need fundamentals, live feedback, and the courage to ship imperfect work. We sit down with Caleb to unpack how hands-on experience at a performance gym evolved into a focused online strength and conditioning model, especially for rugby athletes, and why simple systems beat flashy tactics when the goal is results.

We walk through what credible programming actually looks like: a warm-up that matters, strength blocks that pair main lifts with explosive work, accessories that build resilience, and conditioning that respects the sport using zone two and interval days off-feet. Caleb breaks down his onboarding process—from fit and expectations to payment, setup, and rapid delivery—then shows how he tracks sets, reps, RPE, rest, and progress in-app. On nutrition, we start with real life: photo food journals to spot patterns and easy swaps, then macros for those ready to weigh and measure, all designed for adherence over perfection.

The business side echoes the training side: reps build confidence. Free value content grows trust and reach. A single communication channel, midweek check-ins, and Sunday reviews keep clients engaged without chaos. We talk mindset, too—avoiding comparison traps, embracing long timelines, and serving people just a couple steps behind you. If you’ve hesitated to coach online because the space feels loud, this conversation gives you a blueprint rooted in fundamentals, clarity, and action.
