In Episode 115, we have an in depth discussion with Seattle based coach, Luka Hocevar, to talk about his development as a coach and a business owner. Luka identifies the key elements that have contributed to his growth and success over the past 15-20 years. Most importantly, he discusses the power of self-evaluation and seeking out constructive feedback in an effort to make himself better in every area. Many coaches and professionals can get stuck in a rut and continue to ingrain bad habits. Closely examining your philosophy, your process and your day-to-day routines is essential for stimulating growth, especially when you call on others to offer their assessments and feedback. Getting better is often the product of breaking yourself down, understanding where deficiencies lie and developing strategies around mitigating or eliminating those deficiencies.

Luka was born and raised in Ljubljana, Slovenia and gives credit to basketball, fitness and coaches in taking him from going down the wrong path in crime, to becoming a professional basketball player in the elite European Leagues as well as the NBA Summer Pro League. After his professional career Luka went into his passion of training to affect other like the coaches that changed his life. Luka is the founder and co-owner of the Vigor Ground gym in Ljubljana, Slovenia and owner of the Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance in Seattle, WA, both gyms recognized as leaders in coaching in each respective country, where they have cumulatively coached and transformed over 8,000 clients in total since 2006. Luka is also the creator of Vigor Ground Fitness and Business Summit, one of the industries most respected educational events for coaches and gym owners.
Luka has personally coached over 3,000 clients from the highest level professional athletes in the NBA, NFL, UFC, MLB college and high school, rehab patients with many different types of injuries/conditions, and clients from every walk of life looking to achieve looking, feeling, and performing better. Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance has become one of the, if not the leader in continuing education gyms in the country hosting over 80+ seminars, certifications and conferences (in house) from the best coaches and presenters in the industry.
