DisorganizedFitness Is ImportantPoor Communication

Bobby Lockhart is the worst coach I have ever had. Does not effectively communicate and becomes defensive when questioned in any way. Seems to enjoy coaching men over women. Did not reach out to athletes during covid, repeatedly saying that he didn’t want to be “overbearing” when overbearing is the last thing Bobby could ever be. In my person interactions I have had with Bobby, I feel that he does not believe in me as an athlete and has trouble remembering our conversations and details about my training. He often seems emotionally detached and ignores female athletes on race day, preferring to take a hands off approach to race day advice. Tells funny stories about his cats, though. Friendly guy, terrible coach.

Bobby Lockhart does not know how to coach women. He views women as smaller men and gives his female athletes paired down men’s workouts. He doesn’t see athletes he only sees times. He is extremely defensive and does not take criticism well. He is the worst coach I have ever had. Over half the women’s team has quit during his time at CAL.
