Eric D'Agati and Mike Perry: Principles of Program Design

In this episode of the Brawn Body Health and Fitness Podcast, Dan is joined by Eric D'Agati and Mike Perry to discuss the Principles of Program Design. The Principles of Program Design course was designed to help you develop systems to ensure the training programs you use with your clients are effective, efficient, safe, scalable and repeatable. PPD was created by Eric Dagati and Mike Perry, two of the world’s leading fitness and performance coaches. Eric and Mike have a collective experience of almost 50 years in the industry training thousands of clients individually and in group and team settings. They've worked with everyone from the general fitness population to high-level professional athletes. You'll come away from this course with systems (including specific checklists) to help you succeed in this industry and help your clients reach their health, fitness and performance goals. We've developed systems to help you get started with clients, collect appropriate data, communicate effectively, make intelligent exercise decisions when designing programs and keep your clients coming back for more.
