What Makes This Coaching Different?
Where most people go wrong, is they fail to understand the degree of time, effort, and energy that's necessary in preparing for and implementing a new habit in their life.
They try to 'wing it' or if they pay for help online or with a personal trainer, they aren't getting the tools that they need to apply these habits to their unique lifestyle.
With this coaching experience, no program or nutrition plan is alike, because no client is alike.
Me and my team take the guesswork out of getting you the transformation in your body, mind, and lifestyle that you want in the shortest amount of time possible.
Without the shortcuts, gimmicks. or bullshit.
Meet Your Head Coach
Josh Holyfield is an Army Veteran with over 15 years experience deploying and supporting the US Army and Special Operations.
He started weightlifting in 2005 and has been studying exercise science and nutrition as a hobby since.
Josh used fitness as a way to help him overcome the mental and emotional challenges of serving in the military during combat deployments then transitioning from that career to become a civilian in the workforce.
After his military service, he pursued a degree in Exercise Science and worked as a federal contractor, federal employee, e-commerce entrepreneur, and runs an organization that focuses on assisting veterans with their transition from the military and achieving their goals while using health and fitness as a staple for his teaching.
After starting Josh Holyfield Personal Development in 2019, he transitioned from his career in federal service to coach and train men full time.

The Failure Forward Growth Program
After applying over 50 years worth of coaching, training, martial arts, military, police, special operations, and nutritional experience across his staff, you will be working with a team of coaches that have collectively transformed the bodies over thousands of men.
Using a proven method designed to not only help you to get the most efficient results possible, but help you to do it in a sustainable way that you can repeat over and over.
For life.
Most fitness programs or diets work until they don't. When you plateau or stop seeing results, you aren't left with the skills you need to scale your progress over the long term.
With this coaching experience, you'll be learning the skills that you need to continue seeing results month after month and year after year.
Without needing to count on a trainer or another coach to help you continue on your journey.
That's RIGHT. We Don't Create Customers, We Teach Skills. Our Goal Is To Work Ourselves Out Of A Job.
Create Credibility With Yourself use my methods for creating small adjustments to your lifestyle and habits and reinforce those changes with massive return on the results you see.
Stop Living In A Place Of Restriction to see results. This program teaches you how to create habits and routines that fit your busy lifestyle.
Reclaim Your Confidence by showing up as a role model for your children and finding the intimacy with your spouse.
Featured Meals
Nothing is worse than going on a diet and being stuck eating the same bland foods day in and day out. Our goal is to give you the tools you need to eat foods you enjoy while feeling full and satisfied - still seeing the results you want.
Each client is given a custom crafted meal plan with daily intake calculated for them. Each meal plan comes with a schedule, shopping list, and recipes so you can see what right looks and feels like.
By the end of your coaching experience you'll have learned the skills needed to craft your own nutritional protocol based on changes in your goals, lifestyle, or preference.
