Program Design is a lost science/art in general training today. The premise with this class is to teach proper progressive overload with a variety of techniques and formats to teach trainers balance and overall progression to common and advanced clients. This class will focus on the development of programs based on clients wants and needs; the planning aspect based on time restraints and limited resources, as well as the implementation of various modalities and advanced overload techniques (AOT’s) that could be used when athletes face certain challenges or plateau’s in their Periodization training.
Each participant will be asked to participate in a variety of techniques and protocols and engage with other students on a number of different workout formats. Whether you are a body builder, conditioning specialist, or post-rehab specialist, proper progression overload cannot be overlooked or ignored. Open discussion will be encouraged.

--Getting Continuing Education is an important part of being a personal trainer. NSPA provides hands-on CEU courses and some online courses. NSPA give 2 CEUs for each hour if you take an NSPA CEU class.
--You can also obtain CEUs from other sources. You get one CEU per class hour. So, if you take a 3 hour non-NSPA CEU course you would earn 3 CEUs. You can earn CEUs by taking a course related to the field of health and fitness or going to conferences.
--We also give CEUs for college credit. You get 7 CEUs for each college credit. So a three credit course would be 21 NSPA CEUs. The college course must be related to the field of health and fitness.
