Custom Program Design: N of 1

Custom programming is ideal for athletes who are looking for a science-backed, comprehensive training plan custom tailored to their specs. Perhaps you want to run a marathon but have a stressful work schedule? Perhaps you’re having a midlife crisis and want to take up mountaineering in Tanzania. Perhaps you moonlight as a vigilante superhero and need to rid Gotham of its villains and mobs? Whatever the case, we’ll engineer a program to fit your needs.

  • $395 per program
  • Includes initial phone call, your custom training package, and Zoom call to review your program

In the grand scheme of life, a single workout is meaningless. I’m guessing that’s not the inspiration you were looking for but it makes it no less true. Fitness culture needs to move away from the idea of a single workout and towards the idea of sustainable progress and programming. 

You don’t need to START TODAY! or JOIN NOW! & jump into a bat-shit crazy routine. You need to take a breath, assess your current fitness level, goals, preferences, and limitations, and figure out a game plan for how to make fitness a consistent part of your life. Training is far more chill and calculated than the spaz and frenzy you see online. 

Now, this isn’t to suggest we shouldn’t maintain a fierce sense of determination or intensity with our training. That has its value, but only when it’s built on the foundation of incremental progress, mastering fundamental skills, and gradually increasing intensity and challenges. It’s why I’ve grown to appreciate the phrase “Gradatim Ferociter” which is Latin for “Step by Step, Ferociously.”

Here’s how it works…

Step 1) Fill out the intake form below.

Step 2) After I review, we’ll schedule a phone call to discuss your current routine in more detail and start to brainstorm what would make your training more exciting, enjoyable, and effective. 

Step 3) Based on your goals, ideal training schedule, training history, and available equipment, I’ll put together a custom 6 week training plan. Your entire training calendar will be programed and you’ll receive a training package that includes your weekly training schedule and each individual workout charted from start to finish.

Step 4) We’ll then schedule a zoom call to review the program and answer any questions you might have.

Step 5) In 5-6 weeks, after you’ve made some solid progress, we can repeat the process with a new training phase, revised plan, and fresh routine.

A few more things…

Nearly all of the exercises will be linked to video demo’s so you know exactly what to do.

I also offer Custom Marathon Race Prep Training if you want to run your best possible marathon and maintain or build strength as you do. This requires a minimum commitment of 12 weeks (two training phases.)
