BRUTAL day in the life

[@nuttyfoodiefitness]

There is a reason I chose to say nothing more on the matter so please can you respect that & not bring anybody down. There is absolutely nothing in this video that portrays why I no longer wish to work with my coach (yeah he pushes me, but that was not in anyway the issue - growth comes out of the comfort zone). I have both personal as well as professional reasons for making this decision. It’s not one I made lightly & I’m extremely sad I had to make it. X

[@LucyDavisFit]

Love you ❤

[@beamermaid]

Steph, you know better than anyone what is best for you and what happened there. All we can do is support you and be there for you when things are tough. Much love and besos 🫶🏻

[@macyhay5316]

❤️❤️❤️you sweet angel

[@tinaoday8348]

You have to do what is best for you and your goals. It’s nobody’s business why you did it, you did it and it’s your life.

[@tinaoday8348]

Everything is going to be just fine. Life has challenges and you will come out stronger than ever

[@nuttyfoodiefitness]

It's really been a week and a half to say the least.

[@miabiedermann4135]

Keep your head up Steph! better times ahead ❤😊

[@dieselCric]

amazing strength and dedication! keep going !🙏🫡🦾

[@edwardcullen3251]

I love you. Wish I could hang out with you. I've considered turning up to your house 😂. I won't don't worry.

[@edwardcullen3251]

I love you. I have considered coming to your home to hang out with you, but don't worry I won't 😂

[@RacheyCK]

My absolute favourite thing about you is that you show the hard times along with the good times. I don't think most people realise how much bravery it takes to be vulnerable in front of thousands. Thank you for always keeping it real, you are an inspiration to me and all of us

[@movewithsteph]

I think it’s okay for Steph to decide to stop working with her coach, but the comments aren’t fair at all! An athlete’s success is a coach’s success, and a lot of the times when a coach sees potential, they might unintentionally push that person knowing how great they are! Sometimes it becomes personal because the coach and athlete become one. So all the comments aren’t truly nice the way they are directed towards Andrew. I think that’s the same coach who got her to the world’s champs. And her progress in triathlon has been truly inspiring, which is why we follow her! So Kudos to you Andrew. And kudos to you Steph. Sometimes it’s as simple as : we just don’t see eye to eye anymore.

[@shanedevlin6097]

I know that what we see is only a small part of your life. We know that your struggles are real, we all have them. In the start of this video you said that it not all sunshine and rainbows, but when you post it brings some sunshine and rainbows into my life. You are such an amazing person, you really do bring a lot of joy into my life. Just believe in yourself you are so much stronger than you believe that you are. Believe in yourself you got this.

[@TriathlonDan]

Blimey Steph, what a rollercoaster of a video! Thanks for being so transparent, we're rooting for you!

[@mariannegrochol8384]

The coach you benefit from most can be like a therapist - push the buttons to help you go forward but also knows when to step back to relieve the pressure. You got here with his help but if you feel you need a change from an all or nothing attitude, take care of yourself and make the change. I hope you and your family come through this rough patch on the sunny side.

[@AnnaLoisePhotos]

you are 0.00006 percent of the world's population Steph.. an IRONMAN - life is all about the ups and downs, you are one of the few KZbinrs I am happy to follow and see as an inspiration, not only your physical body but your mental control is INSANE, you are a machine, KEEP GOING!!! Time heals all...

[@ryanr.6759]

Is it important to push yourself? Yes. But it’s also important to be in the right mindset to push yourself and get the most out of it. There’s going to be times where it feels like there’s more going on than you can handle. But you’ve got this. Take care of what matters most and the rest will follow. You’re one tough person, Steph. Everything will be alright.

[@JensBlend]

100% agree with this! C

[@hollywebba4334]

Steph i hope you truly understand how much of an inspiration you are. Im 19 and you are the one who encouraged me to begin my running journey and hopefully ironman journey. You share the truth and its so beautiful to see how you handle every situation you are the true inspiration.Im so sorry for your loss but you got this keep pusjing but most importantly give yourself time to grieve and spend time around people who love you!! thank you so much

[@The.Unscripted.Life.x]

My condolences Steph! Grieve and take all the time you need. Sorry about the loss of a coach too, but you know what’s right ❤

[@paulmills7504]

Your bit about not working with Andrew was very sharp and to the point. Hope it was an amicable split

[@molasorrosalom4846]

Wonder what happened.

[@sthompson3189]

Everything is going to be okay ❤ be kind to yourself and do whatever is needed to take care of yourself. Team Nutty is so proud of you

[@troycollett8540]

So sorry for your loss.we lost our baby daughter in august at 24 weeks and it was very hard but I found myself going full on into training etc to make her proud

[@sarcana9377]

please don't feel guilty for moving on with your life, i'm sure you're doing everything to help your family friend through their hard times even if it feels like you're not doing enough by not being there. even the smallest emotion you show towards them is enough to show you really do care and i think it's what they need right now. sincerity. please please please keep up, rest as much as you like but do not give up on yourself. and with the iron man training, you already done this once, you got this!!!

[@chelseydixon3917]

One really are one hell of a woman. Some could do emotional pain without the psycial and vice versa but that fact you took on your biggest challenge whilst being so emotionally vulnerable, is a completely different story. You really are nutty ♥️

[@Claudia-kq7vr]

STEPH! this is the realest video you've ever made and its easily one of your best because of it. All your true and inspired followers admire what you do, right down to the moments of vulnerability and anguish. Keep going through this journey, your family will be proud of you no matter the circumstances. Take the serendipitous moments when they come and find happiness whenever its there to take! We love you xx

[@emmapeace1059]

Awww sorry you’re having a tough time ❤, I am glad you’ve ditched your coach it was clear you just needed a little support and friendship! Stay strong you got this Nutty x

[@abbyschmidt211]

Thank you for being so real! You’re one of the main reasons I get through my hard training days

[@TheMichelleDiaries]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Steph. Sending you and your family a huge hug 🫂 Everything is going to be okay ❤

[@stephaniebaker1903]

Oh Steph I’m so sorry to hear about loss of a loved one 😢 Take the time you need to grieve and be kind to yourself ❤️❤️ Thankyou for being so transparent and showing the struggles you go through too! We support and stand behind you ❤you have so much strength and everything will be okay ❤️

[@elenageorgiadou5524]

I'm sorry for your loss Steph... Health really is the most important thing, and we tend to forget that until something happens. So I wish you and all your loved ones health.

[@shreyanssanghrajka6376]

[@laurellevin1838]

You got this! You are an inspiration; especially when you are vulnerable ❤ we are all here cheering you on!

[@brandonday3269]

Hey yo Steph, sorry to hear about the loss in your family and everything been going through! It is never easy loosing someone. Know it was brutal with the climbs so that is awesome with everything going on that you were able to push through! Thank you for being an awesome inspiration with everything you have going on in life! You got this Steph and your community is here for ya!!

[@agostina5239]

You got this Steph! As I said before, we support you in every decission you take. I surelly can affirm that what you've decided is the best for you, we have to listen to ourselves and know our limits. Sometimes it's okay to push harder, but it's wiser to know how to stop, especially because you're known for always have a smile in your face while training, and in this video it's clearly you were not enjoying it. Also, my condolences for your loss, we love you!!!!!!!!! You're so valuable, never doubt it.

[@katherinekelly2484]

You are so so strong. Thank you for sharing all of the highs and lows with us. Sending so much love

You are always putting out inspiration videos and open and honest! And, as always, beautiful! I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

[@pantelitsafridas6730]

So Sorry for your loss! Our prayers are with you!

[@AS-ur5gl]

I am sorry for your loss and your split from your coach. You were clearly struggling mentally and physically on the rides. I feel this wasn't dealt with properly by your coach. Maybe at that point, knowing you weren't sleeping and the rides are pretty dangerous he should have encouraged you to go home to be with your family. Take care xx

[@snacktivist]

Aw Steph, we're here for you

[@kerstinrautenberg8749]

Oh wow, Steph, sending you so much love! I have to say, I was hurting with you watching that video. I lost a family member last week as well and just imagining having to attempt to push myself in the mental state that puts you in... unbelievable. Be proud of yourself for achieving that, but also be proud of your decision to do what is best for YOU going forward. Yes, we saw only a fraction, but from what we did see, I think there should always be empathy in pushing people and limits need to be considered with care. You're not alone; we are all rooting for you ❤❤❤

[@melissadales1015]

Hi Steph, I normally don't leave comments.. but this time I feel I should. You're doing great, know what is important to you and stick to your beliefs. It's ok to be scared.. it's ok to cry.. you pick yourself up afterwards and appreciate the kind and loving people that surround you. You can do hard things, in all areas of your live. Thanks for the Nutty inspiration, training for a 35km Trailrun as we speak Lots of love from The Netherlands.

[@Bex376]

So sorry for your loss! Thoughts are with you and your family! What you achieved in Switzerland was incredible, you should be so proud of yourself! Even more incredible considering what you were going through at the time! You really are an inspiration to all of Team Nutty!! ❤

[@kenrickbautista6141]

If you want support Steph, all I can say is: you're sweet, honest, cool, funny and just an all-around athletic person. You make great content, you're an overall pretty person and you're not afraid to open up. There's really no shame in being vulnerable. If you don't tell people what's inside your head, it only get worse. Also, I'm so sorry to hear about your family member. 🫂 Just remember we all love you.

[@kimberlyrainbow9432]

[@Launi80]

Life sometimes throws all the 💩 at us at the same time and it’s so overwhelming. You still showed up and gave what you could. Coaching changes are hard and a difficult decision. Good on you for doing what was best for you ❤

[@jessicapilgrim5358]

I am so sorry for your loss. On another note it made me smile when you said "It's all self inflicted". I totally get this!

[@janeenright8450]

Using tough love doesn't determine a good or bad coach, it's all preference. I hope you find a coach that resonates with your "why"

[@metagan]

Hey! I found your videos bc Im MAYBE training for a triathalon, so i've loved your channel! I'm sorry for everything you're going through. I'm so happy your doing whats best for YOU. Change will bring out your deepest comfort scars, and also bring hope through different dynamics. Also, if you ever have a deep gut feeling, even if you can't explain it, go with it. Even if your wrong, its always those gut feelings that bring out some of lifes biggest lessons, no matter how ugly. Also, girl I'm struggling to even bike 10 miles for my sprint triathalon. I would actually LOVE to see you do a tiny little .25 swim, 10 mile bike ride, 3..6 mile sprint. Like Im scared I wont finish in 2 hours (I bike and run reaaaal slow). I also swear you could to it in like 40 minutes. Id seriously love to see you crush like a 10k race even though I know your passion is longer distances

[@metagan]

Im also like 5 videos in so if you have done that im so sorry im catching up i swear lol

[@danielaraimund4783]

I know you’re going through a hard time, and sorry to hear it does not work with Andrew anymore. Just wanted to say take it indeed day by day, it gets better!! ❤️

Sending lots of love! Appreciate the honesty about life and training. Seems like you have a lot going on at the moment - we do love seeing you do amazing things but we also love seeing people do what's right for them. If you need a rest and a break then do it and you will feel better for it. Favourite carb is pasta!!!!

[@s0nisam]

Love all your videos Nutty!!! You inspire me in so many ways!! ❤

[@sarahladner2668]

You got this Steph! ❤ sending you positive vibes!

[@aliboy4366]

Bit unfair on the coach to leave it open to speculation IMO. At the end of the day he has a business to run which is built around the coach-athlete relationship of trust. You could have been more explicit without going too much into details.

[@tearunnerslab]

The most logical reasoning when its up in the air like this, is that there is something fishy going on, so best trust nutties decision is a good one

[@RachieRawrs]

Sorry for your loss Steph, sending lots of love your way. My fave carb is all the carbs, I couldnt choose 🥲

[@lauramcintosh93]

YOU’VE GOT THIS STEPH!! 💪🏻 Sending lots of love, so sorry for your loss. Also You know what best for you, you don’t need to explain a thing ❤

[@RocketCowgirlRunner]

Steph, you are incredible. Everything will indeed be ok. I’m so sorry for your loss.

[@boyslikemelo]

Not that I've ever quite been in Steph's shoes but to continue pushing and training while knowing your loved one is doing poorly is unimaginable and it almost seems like there was a lack of empathy from her coach. I know we don't see everything but from the little we see it must have been so difficult to keep pushing through not even just from a physical standpoint.

[@chelseajane7072]

It's okay that you're feeling low right now, you're doing incredibly considering the circumstances.. everything will be okay, don't be too hard on yourself!! xxx

You got this Steph! You have come so far already. 💪

[@laurencharltonn]

Sending all my love to you and your family ❤ sport is a tiny part of your life and family is a whole lot more important. You are still young and have years ahead of you to achieve your goals. Nothing will be held against if you decide to take a step back from triathlon for now, but also if it helps you then don’t feel guilty about chasing your dreams 😊

Fave carbs definitely pasta, I can eat an ungodly amount 🙈 if we talk about breakfast food maybe oats and fruit. Also to say something positive, believe me and I know you already know this, but after every challenging time comes an enjoyable one. Also hope you find the right coach for you going forward, sometimes you need to go through hard things to be able to let go of things or people not serving you. So so sorry for your loss, take a few days for yourself and please don't feel guilty for it!❤

[@nukez88]

My condolences for the loss in the family. As for not working with Andrew came as a shock, I'm sure he did push you beyond your failing point but it just came out of the blue. But then again it is what it is. Hope you can rest a bit before Mallorca. Ps my favourite carbs are potato wedges. Cant go 2 days without potatos. Hell I might be the potato king 😆

[@sammypayne07]

Is wine a carb? If so, that's my favourite carb. I'm sorry to hear life has been less than savoury. Life is difficult at the best of times when it throws curve balls, but being in the limelight and being an influencer at the same time is super difficult. I hope life starts picking up again soon. Remember the chapter "Be Kind To Everyone" in "Now Is The Way" by Cory Allen. Everything will be okay. After losing my Mum, I had to just take 1 hour at a time. One breath at a time. You've got this! It might be difficult but the sun will still rise tomorrow. The dark periods may be dark, but it never lasts forever. Essay over. You've got this. (I wrote before Andrew said to comment, but it can be aimed at both.)

[@debrascott8775]

So sorry for your loss, Steph.🙏 After watching the video, I can't say I'm surprised about the split with Andrew. Good on you.

[@elliematthews95]

Why?

[@JuliaJiggs]

@@elliematthews95 I think she needs someone who is more encouraging and empathetic. Pushing someone out of their comfort zone is important, but I think it can be too much. Steph had a family member not doing well and during the tough ride she seemed absolutely miserable. Andrew seems like the type of coach who will push you to be your best physically, no matter how the person feels. I think Steph should find someone who allows her to enjoy the sport more, because that's what life is about. She's not training to become a pro triathlete (which is how it seems Andrew is going at it); she's said the world champs will likely be her last triathlon.

[@woodroffecoaching]

@@JuliaJiggs thanks for the comment, I have coached for over 8 years and worked with athletes of all level and ability. What you have seen here is not a fair portrayal nor really the full picture of what happened and what was communicated. I value athletes as people before the sport first and foremost and I’m sure all of the athletes I work with would tell you how flexible I am with their life and personal situations time and time Again. Steph came out to Zurich to climb for an event and challenge she had lined up. There was time to change plans, change the ride and ideas but as you know she liked to push on a challenge. Im sure if you see other videos you will understand we had a close working relationship where I am very flexible, understanding, move training if anyone needs it. I would never push someone physically if it’s not needed or wanted. Athlete health is my first priority. I think there was been quite a misunderstanding here and it’s been put across an unfair portrayal. Thank you.

[@ctclaunch]

@@woodroffecoaching it seems that Steph's emotional and mental health could have been cared for and prioritized more.

[@woodroffecoaching]

Hi folks. It's quite hard reading some of your comments and accusations that seem to be made towards myself. I do not believe you are seeing the full picture or understanding what was communicated or the objectives of the trip. I have always and will always be a flexible coach, I change plans wherever athletes need for their lifestyle, motivation whatever else. I very much believe in the person before the athlete. Steph came out to Zurich to focus on climbing for a challenge she had lined up and was aware of the plan, routes and training. I would have been more than happy to change plans do something different or not at all had this been asked or communicated. I would have never forced an athlete to do something they do not wish to do that is simply absurd. As you know Steph likes to challenge herself and this was no different. What is being put across and said is an unfair portrayal and I believe if you watch previous videos see my style, my values and the way I am With athletes you would understand that. I wouldn't judge someone and their career they have worked hard to build by a few snippets. Thank you.

[@half.full.cup.of.coffee]
