More About Coach Nathan

Over 50 completed running sessions. Former cross country coach with 5+ years of coaching experience. I am a teacher and work with students and adults on building knowledge to do these things yourself.

Ran college indoor and outdoor track for two years at Rockford College while also the captain of the men's soccer team for 3 years and captain of the tennis team for a year. Competed in the 800m (2:02 PR) and 1600m (4:41 PR).

Sessions will be once a week. Runners will receive a running plan for the next week. I am able to travel within Murfreesboro and most workouts can be done from virtually anywhere. I live more towards the Siegel/Oakland side and teach at Riverdale HS so I would prefer to stay close to those areas. (Barfield park, Mcknight, Jordan Farms, Local Neighborhoods)

Running plan for that day (30 mins)

Client Reviews

Great coach with many tips. Always punctual, comes with a thoughtful plan, and asks for feedback. Seeing much improvement after 2 weeks.

Coach Nathan did a good job with planning an intro session that would work for both my 11 year old and 9 year old daughters and keeping their attention. We have already booked more sessions and look forward to continuing the private training sessions during this time when soccer activities are hard to come by.

Teaches her things I’ve never seen her school coach do, and uses every second. He is well prepared and gives feedback. Would definitely recommend him and will keep using him!!

Coach Nathan does an outstanding job with my daughter on the soccer field. He keeps her focused and keeps the training sessions moving so she doesn’t get bored. He is always prepared, on time and ready to go.

My son has only had one session with Coach Nathan. He felt really good about his first hour and is ready for more! My husband and I have been impressed with coach Nathan’s organization and professionalism through out this process. Looking forward to more for our son.

Coach Nathan has made a seemingly impossible goal possible. After a couple of seasons of training, I was able to get myself in the right state of mind to accomplish set running goal. He helps by establishing milestones, working on techniques, and encourageing each step of the way. Thanks Coach!

Have only had one lesson with Nathan. Here was our experience. In the days leading up to our first lesson, Nathan responded promptly and professionally to any questions I had. Lesson date, time, and location were nailed down in a few short emails. We arrived at our lesson and Nathan already had the area laid out with cones and balls for the drills he wanted to go through. This is very important to me as it shows that there was thought and preparation put into the lesson and wasn’t just winging it. He introduced himself and asked my daughter what SHE wanted to get out of the lesson. I liked that because it helps her have some input on the lesson, making it more engaging for her. From there they moved into stretching and warm-up. He then took my daughter through a number of drills to assess skill and work rate. I was impressed to find that the drills provided a lot of touches on the ball and wasn’t just focused on tactics. By the end of the lesson, my daughter was ready for a break. Afterwards, he discussed with us what he saw that went well and what he saw needed to be addressed. Overall, I felt it was a very positive experience. Again, I liked that he was prepared. I felt he addressed my daughter in a manner that related well to a girl her age. Drills were challenging and the pace of the lesson was such that there was no time for her to get bored with any one particular drill. We will be scheduling more lessons with Nathan.

Great experience with Coach Sweet! My son looks forward to every session. Very detailed in teaching techniques. I highly recommend!

Great first time on training.

Coach Nathan is a great coach. Had a great way of communicating with my son. I can already see a difference after just one session.

Coach Nathan has a great way at looking at the individual player to assess what they need to work on. My son is finding his love for the game again because of Coach.

My 11 yr old son had an awesome experience with Coach Nathan. He focused on exactly what my son needed and I saw immediately the adjustments that were made in goal shots, foot work and fluidity. I will only use Coach Nathan from now on.

We just finished our 3rd session with Coach Nathan, yesterday. We feel he has helped boost our daughters skills and confidence a great amount in such a short time. My daughter feels completely comfortable with him and his style of training. He works her hard during the hour but he also makes it fun for her and we feel that helps her keep her love for the sport ongoing! Looking forward to having future sessions with him...

Have only trained with Coach Nathan 3 times, but already it's made a difference. I won in my age group in race today for the first time ever. Coach Sweet's emphasis on fundamentals - agility, balance, breathing, and speed - helps a lot, and he runs alongside you to help you set a manageable pace.

Very thorough in his training sessions!

Coach Nathan has been great! He covers all phases of training. Warm ups, speed/agility, footwork, passing and receiving, and proper technique for shooting. He even has my daughter work on strengthening stabilizing muscles to protect from ACL tears. All this in just 2 sessions, but practices do not feel rushed. He takes his takes his time and explains and critiques at the same time. I am very happy with what he is teaching and how he is teaching my daughter. I truly believe he teaches the small things that help make the big things happen!

My son has played soccer in the past but had limited coaching. After one session Coach Nathan pushed him to be better and asked questions on why my son thought things didn't go the right way... My son left with drills he can do at home as well. We will definitely continue to use Coach Nathan.

Coach Nathan

Diligent, focused and supportive. He delivers a calm approach that has given my son drive and confidence. His assignments between weeks my son has done without anyone having to tell him. He learned more about running and breathing; looking forward to future sessions.

Nate was a great teacher and coach. He is very detailed and has my son understanding the Why. That is the most important piece of teaching/coaching.

"Coach Nathan worked with my eight year old son, who has never played soccer before, and after one lesson can't talk about anything else. My son told us that the entire lesson was fun, never boring and like playing mini games the entire time. He loves practicing the foot work he learned and can't wait to schedule his next lesson."

Coach Nathan is extremely knowledgeable in soccer and appropriately pinpoints skill deficits. My sons loves having him as a coach.

Coach Nathan kept my sons attention for an entire hour which is rare. We saw an improvement after 1 session.
