Ryan DeBell – The Movement Fix – Modifying Workouts For Athletes With Pain
Train Your Clients and Athletes Around Pain with Confidence
The health and fitness world needs more trainers, coaches, and healthcare providers who can comfortably and intelligently modify workouts for athletes who are having pain to keep them healthy, moving, and progressing forward.
This extensive course will give you:
The only comprehensive approach for modifying workouts systematically
A library of resources to use for yourself, colleagues, and clients
A system for quickly deciding which exercises to choose and why
The tools to help your clients, athletes, and patients on a deeper level
Modification Doesn’t Mean Stop Training
Just because we have to modify a workout, doesn’t mean we can’t be training people hard and doing so safely.
When an athlete, patient, or client has pain with certain lifts and exercises, we can do so much for them by appropriately altering their workout. The key is knowing which modifications make sense and have the most similar training stimulus to the lift they want to perform. This isn’t necessarily a modification as much as it is a pain free training option.
Rather than completely avoiding the lifts and exercises someone wants to do, strengthening them in a similar way that is pain free is key to keeping them happy and healthy.
Just Avoiding Certain Lifts Isn’t Good Enough
As important as helping people lose weight and get fit is, it’s not always enough. To best help your clients, patients, and athletes, we need to have solid, practical answers to questions like:
This program has been a vital tool in keeping all of our staff on the same page when it comes to scaling athletes. No other program, course, seminar or certification out there today is teaching this type of material. This has also been a critical tool for our members to know what progression actually looks like from a movement standpoint. If you are a box owner, trainer, or coach and are looking to keep quality high, this course is indispensable.
These Answers Already Exist – But How Do You Learn it All?
No program offers an in-depth look at all these lifts, common complaints related to the lifts, what modifications should be done in which order (and why), what accessory work to be doing, and which mobility drills should be used and when.
You could spend endless amounts of time searching online for all of this information, piecing things together from various blogs, YouTube channels, Instagram accounts, books, research articles, and more. But the problem is it doesn’t all fit together in the right context. It isn’t a workable system.
The good news is, we did all the hard work to put these answers together for you through countless hours of research, working with athletes and clients through injuries, and studying advanced degrees in exercise science, physical therapy, and chiropractic.

What this Course is NOT.
Conceptual, Unusable Content
With the advent of the internet, it’s become increasingly easy to find information. But is that information usable? Does it apply to real world situations that you will find yourself in? Is it based on experience that is similar to yours? In this course, you won’t find concepts for the sake of concepts and information for the sake of filling up pages. What you will find is real-world, highly applicable tools.
Bro-Science
The other end of the spectrum is bro-science. This course is based on research that you will find cited throughout the modules and in the course book for your reference. The research is combined with best practices and applied to the gym setting to take out the guesswork and give you the confidence that your recommendations are based on the best available research.
Who should NOT take this course?
If you aren’t committed to putting in the work to improve your skills, if you’re only looking for quick fixes and shallow knowledge, if you aren’t open to changing your current methods at all, or if you are already 100% confident on how to modify every major lift for every athlete, then this course it not for you
