Course Overview
The Hypertrophy Intensive empowers trainers to program, cue and coach their clients through hypertrophy focused programs and fosters a deeper understanding of the process of stimulus/response, not limited to hypertrophy.
We accomplish this by focusing on the pillars of Biomechanics, Resistance Mechanics, Exercise Selection & Program Design, Cueing, and Hypertrophy Nutrition.
This course encourages participants to think about hypertrophy focused exercise prescription & coaching, differently. Graduates leave empowered with a better understanding of biomechanics, exercise selection and program design as they relate to muscular hypertrophy.
