Dan John & Chip Conrad – Arcata: A Systems Approach to Coaching & Training + How to Create a Holistic Athlete

---

When it comes to training, most people aren’t getting the results they want.

This usually happens for two reasons: They either get the ‘how’ of training wrong, or they get the ‘why’ of training wrong, or sometimes both.

1) Knowing ‘how’ to train properly, which exercises to select, how many sets, how many reps, how much to focus on strength, mobility, flexibility, stability, conditioning… how many times a week to train, how long the session should be, how you should change a program as you progress or regress—these are critically important for both short-term and long-term success.

NOT knowing how to train properly can be incredibly frustrating. This is made even harder with all the confusing and conflicting information, and the new fitness fads that make it even hard to figure out the ‘how’ of training.

2) The second reason why people don’t get the results they want is also the least talked about: It’s the ‘why’ of training.

Figuring out the ‘why’ of training is one of the keys to unlocking higher levels of motivation, drive and energy needed to consistently perform better.

The ‘why’ of training looks at the bigger picture, and answers questions like: “Why do you train?” “What goals should you set?” and “How do you find motivation to train week after week, month after month, year after year…and still enjoy it?”

Sadly, most people never take the time to answer the ‘why’ question of training, choosing to jump straight into the details of the ‘how.’ Because of this, they fail to find the levels of drive, motivation and enjoyment needed for consistent results and a fruitful athletic career.

If you or the people you coach have ever suffered from these problems, don’t worry. There’s help at hand.

Finally Start Getting The Results You’re Looking For

If you’re not satisfied with the results you’re currently getting from your training sessions, and are ready to do some deep thinking about why, and how you train, then you’ll love these talks by Dan John and Chip Conrad.

Together in their presentations, Dan and Chip will help you figure out the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of training, and show you not only how to get better results, but in the process you’ll re-discover your joy and passion for training.

In Chip’s How To Create A Holistic Athlete presentation, he explores the important ‘why’ of training, and shows you how to set better goals, and find deeper motivation in your training.

Dan’s presentation in A Systems Approach To Coaching & Training, complements this. He goes into the ‘how’ of training—how to create more effective results year after year through a principle-based training system, which you can use and adapt to any person, any goal, and any circumstance.

Chip helps you to think about where you’re headed in your training—your ‘Point B.’

And Dan shows you how to get there as quickly as possible.

Dan and Chip both have decades of experience between them, not just as athletes, but also as coaches, so you can be sure they can guide you in your own journey, no matter where you are at the moment. They can also help you guide your clients through this process as well.

You won’t find any ‘magic pills,’ ‘quick fixes,’ or ‘4-week programs’ in these presentations.

What you will find, are solid systems and principles to guide you as you seek to build your own training programs and coaching approaches.

Rethink The Way You Train

In this video set, you’ll learn—

• The difference between a training program and a training system
• Dan John’s 5 principles of training that guide all his programming choices

They’ll not only give you tools to create training programs that get better results in the long run, but they’ll also teach you to look deeper, and to develop the motivation and passion you need to propel you through your training.

I must tell you the Holistic Athlete DVD is phenomenal.
