About Online Holistic Bodybuilding Coach Rob Lagana

Rob Lagana, Holistic Bodybuilding Coach

Welcome to my website, where I am dedicated to empowering women to achieve their fitness goals through a holistic approach. My name is Rob Lagana, and I am a seasoned fitness coach and competitive bodybuilder with over two decades of experience in the field.

Are you looking to shed a few pounds, prepare for a competition, or simply improve your overall health and wellness? If so, I am here to guide you every step of the way. With my personalized approach to fitness and wellness, I can help you turn your dreams into a reality.

As someone who has faced personal challenges and overcome them, I understand how difficult it can be to achieve your goals. I was born with ocular albinism, a condition that left me legally blind for life. But that did not stop me from becoming a successful competitive bodybuilder and inspiring others to do the same.

I offer each of my clients a tailored experience, with specially designed workout routines and meal plans. In addition, I can provide you with a complete nutrition protocol, utilizing my tried-and-true tips and tricks to fat loss and toning up. With a nutrition and exercise regimen that is uniquely tailored to your needs, you can achieve anything.

At the core of my coaching philosophy is the belief that fitness should be fun. I have never been an all-work, no-play kind of guy, and I believe in the right mindset adding positivity, empowerment, support, and a holistic approach to the mix. Together, we can pave the road to longevity and achieve your fitness goals.

I am passionate about what I do, and I am here to help you achieve your best self. Let’s begin your journey together. Reach out to me today for a free 15-minute consultation, and let’s get started on achieving your fitness goals.

Here are some of my insights and tactics that we apply when you hire me as an online fitness coach. Remember, my wisdom becomes your wisdom 🙂 

1. Progress in strength alone is never linear. We enforce good form over amount of weights used every time. Ego is left at the door.
2. When an exercise is too hard due to equipment or ability, I will always know when to use regressions during your workout. Some times the basics work much better than advanced exercises.
3. My background in bodybuilding competitions imply that results are crucial to success. So, I do not obsess about functional movement training and provide a balance of exercises, nutrition, good sleep habits, stress reduction management  and practices to deliver maximum results.
4. We do not just use machines in your training regime. We use all sorts of equipment, free weights, cables, bodyweight etc.. to deliver maximum results.
5. I don’t pretend to know the answer to every question.  As a great coach,  I am aware of the limitations and gaps in knowledge, and I am not afraid to hit the books and research in order to improve our understanding of a particular topic.
6. In diagnosis of pain or injury, I point you in the right direction for further study, and refer you to experts in those fields when necessary. I work with RMTs, Chiropractors and  M.Ds in different specialties to help you.
7. The right nutrition plan for you, goes hand in hand with your training. Not only will I coach you in the gym, but coach you as well on proper balanced nutrition to meet your goals.

CLIENT RECOMMENDATIONS

Throughout my years in the industry I have worked with some of the best online (and offline) personal training clients. These are some of the generous recommendations I have received:

“This was my first time working with a fitness coach. I wish I had started long ago.  These last 6 months with Rob have been extremely productive from a physique perspective. I’ve accomplished more change in my body with Rob then I have the last 15 years of training. 

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the side effects of being coached by Rob. He has enabled me to shape my body the way I have always wanted but the best part has been the sense of empowerment. I believe in myself, I know that even when “times get tough” I can do it, I can push through, I am capable of allot more then I thought. This is because Rob very attentive, truly invested in his clients. He’s a great listener and above all a very caring coach. His approach to coaching is flexible and objective, with the right balance of support and challenge!

I found the experience of being coached extremely positive and cannot see myself without a coach ever again. 

My best advise is to be open with your coach, share your goals, your thoughts on how things are going and ask questions so you understand the process. Be patient as results don’t happen over night but the consistency pays off. Coach Rob will support you along the way! ” – Sandy Costa, GreenLeaf Pest Control Inc

“I have had the pleasure of working with Rob since I decided to shed my former self and get healthy again. Weighing in at nearly 300 lbs and suffering from numerous ailments like high BP and asthma and joint pain and being constantly lethargic and having low energy, Rob helped me realize that with proper nutrition, a healthy lifestyle and positive energy and focus I could achieve anything. Rob was instrumental in getting me back on track and was constantly supportive and available throughout the journey. He is empowering, empathetic, determined and dedicated to you and your goals.

With Rob’s guidance and direction, coupled with my hard work and determination I not only lost 110 lbs, I also corrected my BP (now a resting heart rate of 56) stopped the need for asthma meds and have energy and direction.

Rob truly knows his stuff and his experience in the field of fitness and nutrition is beyond compare.
