Luke Worthington and I have presented this workshop twice. Once in London last year and again this past June in Boston.
We’re bringing it back to London this Fall, my most favorite place in the world.
This two-day workshop is designed to arm fitness professionals with all the tools they’ll need to hone their assessment skills and to make their clients/athletes a bunch of bonafide, resilient, strength training Terminators.
Combined Luke and I have ~40 years of coaching experience (or one Dan John) and bring different perspectives and skill-sets to the table; Luke peels back the onion on PRI (Postural Restoration Institute) concepts and assessment, while I go into detail breaking down movement and how to better “match” the exercises we prescribe to our clients.

SOCIAL MEDIA SHENANIGANS
Tuesday nights at CORE is “ladies’ night.” I have a group of 4-5 women who come in and get after it.
One of my male clients just so happened to pop in, and about 30 minutes into the session he noticed most of the plates were in use.
“You guys don’t mess around.”
Damn right.

STUFF TO READ WHILE YOU’RE PRETENDING TO WORK
Personal Trainer Salary Survey (2019): Who Earns the Most? – thePTDC.com
This was a nifty look inside the industry. Not surprisingly, those who tend to make the most are the one with the biggest biceps most experience.
How Fast Can I Lose Weight? – Jim Laird
Man, this was spot on from Jim.
It’s only five minutes long….give it a watch.
Not Yet – Spurling Fitness
Fitness can be fickle. We’re programmed to believe that if we can’t do something – a push-up, deadlift 2x bodyweight, put a grizzly bear in a headlock – that we’ve failed.
F = Failure.
I really enjoyed this re-frame from the crew at Spurling Fitness in Kennebunk, ME.
