About Vaughn
I'm here to help anyone anywhere in the world get in the best health and shape of their lives, live longer, and be able to (one day if not already) run around with their kids or grandkids and feel great doing it.
A little backstory: I've been working out and interested in nutrition since I was just a kid, and both have changed my life in so many ways. I have experience as a runner- from running 800m at nationals to the Boston Marathon, and a decade of competitive swimming. I have experience training in the military and qualifying for special operations in the Air Force, and over 5 years of CrossFit training and coaching which includes Olympic Weightlifting, Bodybuilding, Powerlifting, Gymnastics, and my personal favorite, Mobility / Flexibility to help people get into better ranges of motion with less pain and risk of injury.
Today, as a certified CrossFit Trainer, CrossFit Kids Trainer, CrossFit Mobility Trainer, CrossFit Powerlifting Trainer, and Precision Nutrition Coach, I'm extremely passionate about helping people of all ages achieve their health and fitness goals.
Over the years I've found that health and fitness has become very complicated when it should actually be very simple. I do my best to distill all of the information I've learned over the past decade and simplify it into easy to understand morsels.
I do one on one personal training at CrossFit 460 with kids all the way up to grandparents, as well as nutrition coaching, and recently, an online health coaching business that helps people get the best health of their lives for the rest of their lives through habit and behavior change.
You can connect with me through my website: (concealed information) or find me on Facebook or Instagram @thediabesitycoach or @vaughnfranklin1
I love seeing the excitement and joy that comes from my clients when they get the results they want and feel the freedom that comes with good health!
I became a coach after realizing it is the most fulfilling thing I could do in my life. It's not an easy path, and it's not a get rich quick type of thing, but because I'm passionate about helping other people get healthy I've continued to pursue it!
I'm a Certified as a:
Precision Nutrition Coach
CrossFit Trainer
CrossFit Kids Trainer
CrossFit Mobility Trainer
CrossFit Powerlifting Trainer
I've been coaching since I was 16, when I got my first job as a swim coach doing private lessons and for a team of several hundred kids. I have over a decade of coaching experience and as an athlete in many sports, including swimming, running, marathons, CrossFit, Olympic Weightlifting, and Air Force Special Operations experience while a member of the Corps of Cadets at Virginia Tech '14.
As a nutrition coach, I've tried a bunch of diets and have experimented with food as a result of struggling with my own IBS / SIBO / digestive problems for over a decade. I've found the power of nutrition and looking at our lifestyle as a whole to be extremely powerful in our health and longevity.

To start out, we usually do a free consultation call on the phone or via Skype so I can learn more about you and your goals and from there we do a free two-week trial!
I've worked with kids ages 3+ all the way up to 70 years old in everything from swimming and running, to olympic weightlifting, sports performance, weight loss, and eating disorders. My current online program focuses on people who want and need to lose over 40# and keep it off forever without having to track calories or live in the gym.
My advice is to really get to know each other and build rapport and trust. If you really connect with your teacher/coach you're going to be held to a higher level of accountability and get better results.
The other advice I would give is once you find a coach, stick with them for a few months and trust the process. There are so many programs out there it's hard to know what/who to trust and if it's actually going to pay off. If you put the work in and trust the process with a coach you trust, you'll get the results you want.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Ask you coach as many questions as you need to find out if they are a good fit for you and if they actually deliver what they promise. Are they genuine, do they have experience working with a similar audience, etc.

Vaughn is great at making small adjustments over time that lead to massive improvements. Instead of trying to change everything at one time these small improvements gave me one specific thing to focus on at a time. All of this happens while being constantly encouraged and pushed at the same time.
The best thing was actually having Vaughn step in and stop me from continuing an exercise before I injured myself. Vaughn places safety and health above everything and it shows.Vaughn offers great, encouraging feedback and practical ways to improve. It’s been awesome having him as a coach!
Vaughn has been passionate about helping me to be consistent yet compassionate about learning new habits and occasional falls. He is very knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition and has a special sensitivity that I appreciate in his coaching.
I've been working with Vaughn for two months now. My weight had grown to 20lbs over my normal, and I was really struggling to eat well. Now, two months later, I have begun to gradually loose weight. More importantly, I have established new habits around eating and exercise. My goals for losing weight and being more active have been strengthened and clarified. I am on the right track, and this is exciting!
Vaughn is easy to talk to and an awesome listener. It is easy to communicate your goals to him and you can tell he really cares about doing everything he can to help you reach them.
Vaughn is so kind! And patient!! And encouraging!!! He helps us to understand the ways in which we can improve and supports us as we take the steps to get there. He is very informative, never judgemental, and always uplifting. He knows how to approach us in gentle ways when we need help and sure to give positive feedback when we make strides towards our goals.
Vaughn has always been a gifted teacher. As his brother, I've seen that talent of his flourish and evolve over the last decade in incredible ways. From coaching on the swim team, to leading his peers as a flight sergeant in the Civil Air Patrol, there is always something about his leadership that is magnetizing. Of course it's not a mystery when you really pay attention. Vaughn strives to understand YOU, more than almost anyone else I've ever met. He tailors his coaching to YOUR NEEDS and does an exceptional job of making you feel like his number one priority. That's an incredibly rare trait to find in the high-productivity-obsessed society we live in where intimate connections are often entirely forgone for the sake of more money or productivity. I'm not just saying this because I'm his brother, I truly believe this man is one of the best teachers and coaches out there. I hope his course through Precision Nutrition will help many many people in some of the same ways, and many different ways, than it has already worked for me.

Details
Full transparency here with nothing to hide guys. I know if I'm considering to work with someone I don't want to feel awkward or pressured into and sold something I'm not aware of. At the end of the day it's a matter of understanding the value. What would achieving your goals be worth to you? Can you put a price on it?
Pricing depends on the person and their goals, but I want to be fully transparent. If it's in person, I usually charge $50/hour for personal training or nutrition coaching.
If it's online with my coaching program that includes nutrition coaching + daily workouts, depending on the package it's $175-250/month for 12 months with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. To be honest with you I've found that the price is accountability in itself... when I lower the price people don't follow through as much because there isn't any skin in the game.
