Lecture %presenters%

Why do people do what they do? What causes some to succeed while others continually struggle despite having vast amounts of information and resources at their fingertips? In order to answer these questions, one must possess a basic understanding of the principles of human behavior. We will explore those principles and provide you with the techniques, tools and insight necessary to help your clients make unprecedented breakthroughs in their training and their lives. If you want to be known as a master motivator who can produce profound results when no one else can, you must attend this session.

Balancing the programming differences between what clients need and what they want is one of the most challenging elements of personal training. Learn how to systematically assess where a client is, what they need and what programming will bring them to their peak fitness while addressing their movement compensations. This revolutionary model provides trainers with an easy-to-execute training model that guides what measure of corrective- versus performance-based training methods should be used with each client and even leads them to the right exercises to use for peak results.
