Eric Cressey – Building the Efficient Athlete
If a new client or athlete came to you needing to get healthy and fit, would you be able to help? Would you be guessing or assessing?
In just 12 hours, you will be on your way to becoming the premiere strength coach or personal trainer in your area.
Say goodbye to cookie-cutter programs, outdated assessments, and sub-par results and start making the elite athletes you’ve always dreamed about training.
Have you ever wondered what separates the average trainers and coaches from the best of the best?
Have you ever considered what accounts for the difference between a mediocre athlete and an elite one?
Are you looking to establish yourself as the next great trainer, coach, or athlete?
The answers are all now right at your fingertips…
There are millions of trainers, coaches, and athletes around the world searching for the Holy Grail of health and human performance. They’re constantly debating with each other on sets and reps; training frequency, intensity, and duration; and what the best equipment and supplements are. Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of these debates are carried out without a crucial foundation. That is, very few coaches, trainers, and athletes really understand how the body works.
Enter the Functional Anatomy Geeks
By our own admission, we’re geeks when it comes to not just understanding the structure of the body, but understanding how that structure dictates function or dysfunction (and, in turn, health or pathology). In typical anatomy courses, students are required to learn where bones and muscles are, and then list their actions, points of attachment, and possibly nerve innervations. However, several key questions are never asked:
What causes a muscle to stop working?
When a muscle “shuts down,” what other muscles must work overtime to com
pensate?
What are the ramifications of these compensations?
How do we identify and correct these inefficiencies?
On July 22-23, 2006, 30 trainers, coaches, and athletes assembled at Peak Performance, New York City’s premier training facility, for two days of professional and athletic development unlike any they’d ever had before. From functional anatomy, to static and dynamic assessments, to corrective exercise programming, and troubleshooting common exercise technique, these two days had it all – everything you need to build an efficient athlete. Here’s your chance to “catch up” to these lucky 30 people; these two days are now available as an 8-DVD set.

Have we been missing the boat on how we view rhomboids?
Why doesn’t anyone think about pectoralis minor?

What’s the difference between an inefficiency and a pathology?
How are we “missing the boat” with current corrective training practices?
What exercises are absolutely contraindicated?

DVD #8: Neanderthal No More Revisited: What We’d Do Differently
Almost three years ago, we co-authored a five-part article series called “Neanderthal No More.” This series outlined common postural flaws and offered corrective exercise suggestions. While people made tremendous progress with this program, we’d be lying nowadays if we said that we wouldn’t have done anything differently if we were to write that series of articles over today. On this DVD, we mercilessly rip on our own program – with the help of those in attendance – based largely on the principles we discussed over the course of the two-day seminar. It’s a perfect example of how learning more about functional anatomy can dramatically change what we’re doing – and even make a good program into a great program
