DFitzAcademy is an online coaching company helping men over 300 lbs lose 50-100+ lbs, build habits they can actually stick to, and completely change their lives.
We don't believe in crash diets, meal replacements, or six-week transformations. We coach men through sustainable lifestyle change with accountability, simple nutrition, resistance training, daily habits, and consistent support.
We've helped men across the US lose thousands of pounds collectively, improve their health, regain confidence, and become better husbands, fathers, and leaders.
As we continue to grow, we're looking for an Online Fitness Coach who genuinely cares about changing lives and wants to become part of a high-performing coaching team.

- Managing your own roster of online coaching clients through Trainerize
- Delivering detailed weekly check-ins that provide accountability, encouragement, and clear action steps
- Onboarding new clients and setting up their nutrition, habits, and training plans
- Adjusting calories, macros, step goals, cardio, and workouts based on client progress
- Monitoring client adherence and proactively reaching out when clients begin falling off track
- Answering client messages promptly (within 24 hours MAX) throughout the week
- Celebrating wins while identifying problems before they become excuses
- Following DFITZ Academy coaching systems and SOPs to ensure every client receives a world-class experience
- Helping clients build sustainable habits rather than relying on motivation
