Conventional Program Design Made “Unconventional”

Weeks in advance we program with the best of intentions. But the
reality is that optimal loading is a daily conundrum between
biology and logistics where individual variance reigns. Clients
will tolerate and respond differently to the magnitude and
frequency of training load, with too much stress leading to
breakdown and possible degradation of health. In our quest for
optimal adaptive responses, the application of training stress must
be in line with our client’s current state of physical readiness.
Autoregulatory adjustments in programming are every bit as
necessary as system updates are for our smartphone devices. In this
episode, NASM Master Instructor Andy Hanley will expose you to some
tools, techniques, and tactics that will facilitate you in guiding
your client to better self-govern and adjust for what they are
experiencing physically, mentally, and emotionally during the
session. In the high-stress playground of the modern-day athlete or
weekend warrior, the recipe for success requires a fluid, adaptive
process involving both progressive and reactive manipulation of
even pre-planned training stimuli. Earn credits for listening to
