Evolution of Personal Training Presentation DVD-Tested Methods to Transform Your Fitness Training Business
If you are a trainer or coach in this field - ask yourself if your business practice is the same as it was last year, or two or three years ago. Ask yourself if your programming has evolved to meet the demand's of todays consumer. If you haven't changed your model radically - you will be left behind in today's economy.
The only constant in today's business world is that everything is changing.
Your marketing has to be different. Your sales script has to be different. The services you offer have to be different. The actual workouts you put clients through have to be different (today's client is physically different and has different goals from even ten years ago).
It's time to evolve and reinvent.
This year for Perform Better I presented on the Evolution of the Fitness Profession - "tested Methods to Transform your Personal Training Business - and shared proven strategies that will allow your business to evolve and grow. This was my highest rated and attended talk ever.
We've just released a DVD of my presentation from the 2009 Perform Better tour.
This seminar covered strategies to completely evolve your training business and literally make you bulletproof in the current economy (and as usual with me - it's all battle tested - we're on track to have our best year ever in the gym). Businesses need to evolve and change. You literally need to reinvent your entire business identity every 3-5 years or you'll be left behind.
We cover: Understand that business is a system: If you don't have a system in place you are winging it. Business is too important for improv.
Understand the mindset of the client: "If you can see john smith through John smith's eyes, you can sell John Smith what John Smith buys"
Repositioning yourself in today's market : being a one-on-one clipboard holding, rep counter just won't work in the new economy

21st Century Fitness Programming - Lecture on DVD!
New DVD - filmed live in Chicago 2008 at the Perform Better Seminar.

This DVD is a perfect companion to our program design manual and will revolutionize your training programs - providing a complete solution for today's client.
A fitness guru and a strength-training expert boil down the most recent findings on weight lifting and fitness to create a program of workouts that focus on the six "real-life" movements at which the body naturally excels.
A revolutionary method of weight lifting using today's science for maximum results.
In "The New Rules of Lifting," fitness guru Lou Schuler and strength-training expert Alwyn Cosgrove boil down the most recent findings on weight lifting and fitness to create a program of workouts that focuses on the movements at which the body naturally excels. These six "real-life" movements-squat, bend, lunge, push, pull, and twist-compose three complete programs for three distinct goals: fat loss, muscle gain, and strength improvement.
At home or at the gym, these routines can be mixed and matched for a year's worth of workouts that will keep boredom at bay and lifters challenged long after most plans have called it quits. And while coordinated, useful muscles will always turn heads at the beach, they'll also help you live better and longer. Besides providing comprehensive workout programs, "The New Rules of Lifting" covers much-needed background on aspects of lifting that are often overlooked, like warming up, nutrition, and meal planning. Throughout, Schuler and Cosgrove debunk strength-training myths, troubleshoot dangerous pitfalls, and clearly illustrate moves with black-and-white photographs.

Finally, a weight-training book that doesnt treat women like weaklings. This book is for the woman whos ready to throw down the Barbie weights and start a strength and conditioning program that will give her the body she wants. Illustrated.
Finally, a weight-training book that doesnat treat women like weaklings. If you believe what most womenas magazines tell you, muscles can be ashaped, a atoned, a and asculpteda with nothing more than a little dumbbell that weighs less than a can of peas. But muscles arenat modeling clay, and the only way to transform them is to strengthen them. The New Rules of Lifting for Women is for the woman whoas ready to throw down the aBarbiea weights and start a strength and conditioning program that will give her the body of her dreams. The book puts to rest the shop-worn notion that women who train with heavy weights will bulk up. Nonsense Women simply donat have enough testosterone to pack on muscle like a bodybuilder. Hereas the truth: lifting weights not only makes you stronger, it also makes you leaner. In fact, most women would have to run twice as long to receive the same fat-burning benefits as weight lifters. A better workout in less time may sound too good to be true, but champion trainer Alwyn Cosgrove creates six monthsa worth of workouts that will build strength, burn fat, and rev up the metabolism. His total body workouts target all the major muscle groups, and each exercise is accompanied by clear black and- white photographs that illustrate proper technique and form.
A nutrition plan is another key feature of the book. To gain strength you have to feed muscle, and nutritionist Cassandra Forsythe has designed a regimen to achieve this goal. She strongly recommends small, frequent meals and offers meal plans, along with fifty recipes, to satisfy womenas special needs through breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The New Rules of Lifting for Women will become thestandard for smart women who take their fitness goals seriously.

If it weren’t for dead guys, we’d probably never have started doing crunches. That’s because for years, much of our knowledge of the way muscles work was based on the study of human cadavers. By looking at the anatomy of corpses, modern scientists figured that the function of our abdominal muscles must be to flex the spine. Which is exactly what you do when you perform a crunch, a situp, or any other move that requires you to round your lower back. As a result, these exercises were popularized as the best way to work your abs. But the reality is that your abs have a more critical function than flexing your spine: Their main job is to stabilize it. In fact, your midsection muscles are the reason your torso stays upright instead of falling forward due to gravity. So your abs and lower back actually prevent your spine from flexing. The upshot is that if you want better results from your core workout, you need to train your abs for stability. The future of abdominal training is a focus on dynamic stabilization – not movement. Our new DVD – Ultimate Core Training – 21st Century Torso Training is now available. This DVD contains a multitude of exercises and progressions and non-traditional core training.
