REMINDER: Strong Body-Strong Mind Workshop – Austin, TX (Saturday, June 18th)

Hey fitness pros/fitness enthusiasts in the AUSTIN, TX area. I’ll be down there next weekend (Saturday, June 18th) – along with my wife, Dr. Lisa Lewis – for our inaugural Strong Body-Strong Mind Workshop.

Topics covered include:

1. The Art of Coaching & Behavior Change – not only learn the ins and outs of coaching your clients on the gym floor, but also learn some cool Jedi mind-tricks on mindset and avoiding negative self-talk to boot.

2. The difference between external and internal cueing (and why one is better than the other).

3. Introversion vs. Extroversion – and as it relates to be an effective coach.

4. Breaking down squat and deadlift technique.

5. Why squatting ass-to-grass isn’t for everyone.

6. Why our cat is the cutest cat ever.

 

And much, much more. CEUs via the NSCA are available.
