The Blog
This page shares our best articles to read on topics to help experienced personal trainers and coaches train their clients more efficiently. The central question that drives our work is, “How can train our clients better?” To answer that question, we like to write about science-based ways, made simple, to solve practical health and fitness problems.
However, science doesn’t always have the answers. That’s why our work combines both science and practical real world experience. What works in a text book, doesn’t always work in real life. This is why we like to write and share our client results with you… the good, and the bad, so that we can all learn from it, move forward to live and perform better.
The categories below will help guide you into the topics you’d like to learn about most. Welcome to the crazy 1% club of high-performance training.
