If you’re a trainer or coach, you have to write programs.

And trust me – there are tons of great resources out there to help you. I’m preferential to my Complete Coach Certification or Complete Coach Seminar, but again, I’m biased…

But here’s the thing – the X’s and O’s are all fine and dandy, but sometimes you want specifics.

Or nitty-gritty details.

And sometimes, you just want strategies to help you get in the right mindset to write an awesome training program!

So this show is all about programming – I talk successes, failures, and what I do to hedge my bets and make sure each and every program I write is legit.

And if you’d like to see the full transcription to this podcast, just head over here.
