5 Ways to Become a More Efficient Coach and Program Designer

44 minutes

Unless you’ve been living under a rock the past 2 months, it’s hard to ignore what Elon Musk has been doing with DOGE – or the Department of Government Efficiency.

And while I’m not here to play politics, one thing I think we can all agree on is this:

It’s valuable to audit our work, and determine what’s working well versus what’s not.

So today I’m going to create my own agency – the Department of TRAINING Efficiency (or DOTE, for short) to see what YOU can do to level up!

We’re going to audit everything from your assessments, to your program design, to your coaching and cuing so we can figure out what’s working…

…and most importantly, what’s NOT.

So without any further ado, let’s dive in!

Don’t be the Workout Generator 5000 – remember that 20% of your exercises are going to give you 80% of the results.

This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:

Your assessment is not only a time to connect, but to fast-track the program design process.

The role templates should play in your programming.

Why templates aren’t bad – unless you’re just churning out cookie-cutter workouts!

How many exercises do you REALLY need in a workout?

Should you coach and cue every set?

Why you should stop worrying about “perfect” movement…and what to do instead.

My “not-so-secret” hack for writing programs fast that still get awesome results.

Workouts taking too long? Spending 30 minutes to warm-up? Try THIS during your next session.

Remember to ALWAYS make your clients and athletes feel successful when working with you!
