Meet Your Coach
Brian Wolverton
All of my life I have enjoyed being physically active and playing sports. I personally enjoy the endeavor of improving what I'm capable of and I want to remain active and athletic for my entire life.
Along with my own ambitions, I love the process of helping others improve too! This has led to the design of Fit for Life for those that desire to remain fit and athletic through adulthood and Fit for Footy for soccer players who desire to compete with greater athleticism and skill.
My education is in sports, strength & conditioning, general health & fitness, and nutrition coaching. I also played soccer in college and still love playing to this day.
While much of my background serves the development of competitive athletes, I believe everyone should have the ability to enjoy having an athletic body that they can live an active life in - if that's something you value!
All About Sheer Training
Sheer Training is EFFORT WITH PURPOSE
We believe true progress is made through training and we view training as a consistent and progressive effort with purpose. That being said, there is plenty of room in our system to still have fun mixing up your training and to enjoy feeling and moving better through a wide range of interests that you have. We utilize both a structured program and factor in open-ended activity/interests/play throughout the week to balance the benefits and joys of focused work alongside mixing things up.

The Bars and the Mountain
The bars represent a visual idea of your attributes. Naturally, you will start with varying levels of ability and quality, and as you improve, you can think of your bars rising to reflect the growth you have made in the areas you’ve been training. The mountain represents the personal goals you have for your training and life. Once you have decided on which mountain to climb (setting personally meaningful goals) you can then begin a more focused effort to reach those peaks. Beyond just reaching the peaks, there is a lot of value in having something meaningful to strive for (this doesn’t have to be a health, fitness, or soccer goal either). Your peaks may actually change as you get started working toward them, and that’s okay. The real value comes from continuing to challenge yourself to grow as a whole person and to find people/ways to enjoy the endeavor. Sheer Training has taken these ideas a step further to provide tangible guidance with the “My Training Bars” self-reflection system. This system acts as a hub to your personal goals along with a snapshot of your overall health and fitness. In addition to reflection and planning tools, body-tailored health and fitness markers are provided in 5 key areas: - Endurance - Wellness/Lifestyle - Essential Movement/Ability - Strength & Stability - Athleticism When each marker is achieved, it will actively raise the bar it is categorized in to reflect the progress you have made. The goal is not to max out each bar, rather it is to help clarify standards and benchmark-goals to work toward, while also potentially identifying any gaps you may have. Another bonus about this system is that even when you don’t necessarily have a specific training goal in mind, you are provided with plenty of mini goals to focus on and/or gain a better personal understanding of how your current effort is affecting your baseline health and fitness. Your baseline is powerful because when your health and physical abilities are higher you live and start from a more favorable position to then work toward whatever personal goals you decide on. Representing this powerful connection are the bars placed inside the mountain.
"We rise alone, and we rise together."
This is our mantra that means no matter whether we are by ourselves or alongside each other, we have the ability to raise our abilities and make progress toward our goals. The reality is that we won't always have a coach, training partner, or group with us throughout the week. This doesn't mean we can't still commit to following the program or making time to work toward our goals. The true key to change is that once you know what to do, that you do it consistently. You may not always be surrounded by them in-person, but know that you have a whole community of people that are striving to raise their abilities as well. When you join Sheer Training you will join that community and you'll have the ability to connect with everyone in it!

We strongly believe in the notion of designing the environments around you (focusing on what you can control) with the goal of making it easier to do the more helpful actions day to day and harder to do the less helpful actions. Our environments have a big influence on the consistency of our success. When your willpower is drained, environmental influence amplifies and will often direct the decisions you end up making. Some key environments we can design more thoughtfully are: - Physical Training - Nutrition - Sleep - Rest/Relaxing - Activity and/or Sporting - Travel - Social - Focus/Work With this in mind, you can live and train in all sorts of environments and make great progress! However, you will need to align the tools needed to make the type of improvements you want to make. (as an example) In the slideshow above, you'll see the stages Coach Brian has gone through to build his home gym. He greatly values a high level of training quality for himself and for those he coaches, so he has designed the most effective space for him to train and coach at a high level. You’ll also notice it was an incremental process that takes time to get just right. A key idea to the design of what we do through Sheer Training is to empower you with effective training in a way that fits into your life. Designing your environments to support the person you want to be is a key skill to successfully adopting our methods into your lifestyle. Some key questions to consider are: How can I make my ideal environment more... 1. effective at solving my problem 2. easy to access 3. easy to start 4. consistent and reliable 5. more enjoyable to be in You could start by identifying what types of environments you are typically in throughout your day and then think through the questions above to start shaping them, one tweak at a time, in a way that best supports who you’d like to be and what you’d like to accomplish.
