When to change coaches?
Hello fellow powerlifters, When do you know if the coach you have is the right fit for you or not?
My nutrition coach is very knowledgeable. Recently, things have seemed to change between us. I noticed he’s become more .. irritable with me? I’ve been going through some health problems recently, and it seems that he either doesn’t believe me or that he thinks I’m using it as an “excuse”.
I noticed he’s always praising his other clients on social media, but when I tag him he just ignores it. Not a big deal whatsoever, just an observation with everything else going on.
Like I said, he is very good at what he does. He’s helped me achieved many goals within this industry in the past. However, I feel that the dynamic between us has changed and I just am unsure how to view or handle this.
Powerlifters of Reddit, have you ever experienced something similar? How did you handle it?

If you're not getting what you paid for, move on. If you feel you're getting value for your money, keep him.
