If you’ve landed here, lifting weights is no longer just a hobby. It’s part of who you are – perhaps it’s even your livelihood as a coach, or as an athlete. You’ve probably invested a lot of time in learning about lifting weights already. You’ve watched tons of YouTube videos and spent hours weeding through the towel rows and 8-hour arm workouts, read tons of articles with conflicting information, and been given unsolicited advice from randoms in the gym. But, still, you feel like you haven’t received the rigorous education you need to be the best athlete or coach you can be.

You wouldn’t get a college degree by watching YouTube videos and reading 500-word clickbait articles on your topic of study.

Most resources available only focus on small bits of information at a time.

People want to maximize their site traffic, their YouTube views, their bank accounts. Most don’t care about you getting a comprehensive lifting education.

So what does all the mean for you?

You end up with gaps in your understanding of crucial subjects. Ultimately, this could cost you gains, clients, or your health.

If you truly want to learn all you can and optimize your chances at being a great athlete or coach, you need to go deep. In order to understand a topic, you need context, background information, and authorities who know what they’re talking about.
So, there are 2 ways to get a credible education:

CHOICE NO. 1: Spend years teaching yourself everything. You could read the textbooks, study the research, and spend years putting in the work and analyzing the results of time under the bar.

CHOICE NO. 2: Learn from the experts right now. Study with, learn from, and get your questions answered by people who’ve already read the textbooks, studied the research, and spent a decade under the bar.

Now it’s decision time. If you decide Choice 1 is for you, best of luck. If you decide Choice 2, your life is about to get a whole lot easier …
