Have you read every book and article on program design and periodization, but still feel lost on how to write programs for general population clients that just want to feel better and enjoy their time in the gym?
If so, it’s not your fault.
There are a ton of resources currently available for trainers to learn how to build programs, but most fall short because they’re usually designed for athletes, powerlifters, or body builders – not the clients that you’re working with 90 percent of the time. You know, the thirty or forty-something client that wants to lose weight but has never trained before and others that actually pay the bills.
That’s because most experts address programming from a general scientific perspective, not a goal-specific one. While they cover basic physiology and discuss the standard scientific principles of exercise and periodization, they fail to offer clear, practical programming instructions you need to be successful.
It’s time that personal trainers gain access to a programming system that simplifies the theory and is heavy on practical solutions.
One that can easily take into account a client’s goals, needs, and preferences and deliver killer training sessions each time.
That’s exactly what Practical Program Design Mastery accomplishes and MUCH MORE!

In short, when the best coaches and organizations in the fitness industry want proven, research-backed information, Nick is their trusted resource.
Most programming resources are either too scientific or not scientific enough. That makes it hard to reconcile the foundational principles of exercise that fitness professionals know to be important while still giving clients the variety and fun they crave. Additionally, most program design books and manuals are missing the human element of coaching. They teach trainers how to build workouts that make sense on paper but fail to address important components such as preferences, training environment (big box gym, in-home, etc.), and client limitations. These variables can make or break a training career.
Practical Program Design Mastery is the first resource that not only includes these real-world training situations in the creation process, but also expedites the learning process by reverse engineering tried-and-true workouts.
Not only will you get more than a year’s worth of done for you programming including warmups and finishers, but you’ll also get the rationale behind each workout and framework. That means you’ll understand the principles and philosophies of the system, but not be bound by it.
You’re the foremost expert on your clients and now you can combine that knowledge with a proven system to use as a base, so you don’t have to start from scratch. Almost instantly, you’ll be able to deliver better workouts to keep current clients with you for years and attract new long-term prospects.
In this digital course, Nick will teach you the entire programming system that he uses to get clients results. Using real training programs and carefully crafted presentations, he’ll cover everything from philosophies and frameworks to the meat and potatoes of building programs that deliver results while making clients happy.
Over the course of 12 different learning modules, you’ll be supplied with complete programs that are accompanied with comprehensive explanation videos.
You’ll know exactly why Nick chose each exercise, the sets, reps, and how he’d tweak the variables over time. That means that you’ll not only have high quality workouts that you can use with your clients to get great results, but you’ll also learn how to think critically about program design and see programming in a much more realistic and practical way.

There are no men or women specific exercises, but that doesn’t validate that men and women need to train the exact same way. In fact, they probably shouldn’t.
In this module, you’ll discover the science behind training women and learn the handful of key differences that should be included specifically in a woman’s program to maximize results.
Most program design resources say that you need to keep your programs consistent to get results, but clients want variety. Can you find a good balance between the two that actually produces optimal buy-in and performance? Yes!
In this module, you’ll learn exactly how to tweak workouts to include the variety that clients want to stay engaged with their programs while providing enough consistency to get them stronger and fitter.
While it’s hard to say that 30 minutes sessions can be as effective as 60 minutes ones, they are quite popular (and sometimes needed) for many clients, and no one is actually addressing how to maximize them to get results.
The best 30-minute sessions actually look a lot more like their 60-minute counterparts and less like a non-stop exercise circuit or group class. In this module, you’ll learn how to design principle-based 30-minute training sessions that deliver the same punch in half the time.
