September 2025: Programming
Join us as we discuss how to better develop programming skills at a high level, and with specific patient/client populations.
A framework to move from evaluation to executable program
How to build a training plan around real-life barriers (time, equipment, motivation)
Programming principles that apply to injured athletes, new lifters, or older adults
Key concepts: homeostasis, progressive overload, adaptation, specificity
How to use RPE, reps in reserve, and 1RM to track and tailor intensity
Supersets, compound sets, and circuits: when and why to use them
Phase-based progressions for tendon, neuro, strength, and conditioning goals
Great treatment starts with clarity—but execution is where it lives or dies.
This course shows you:
How to translate clinical findings into actionable training plans
How to avoid the "perfect program no one follows" trap
Why context (lifestyle, habits, time, goals) should dictate design
How to break complex rehab down into bite-sized, doable steps
Programming isn’t about perfection. It’s about matching strategy to reality.
