Movement 101: The Fundamentals of Linear, Lateral, and
Multi-Directional Speed Development
Speed development has become increasingly popular in both the sports performance, and
personal training worlds. Improving athletes’ speed is critical to performance, longevity,
and injury prevention. Improving how your clients’ move translates into better efficiency,
functionality, and quality of life. As with any exercise prescription/implementation, there
is a lot to understand about this topic. In this session we will breakdown the three
components of speed development, provide the prescription of success, give you a vast
number of drills to add to your training arsenal while explaining the “why” behind each
drill along the way. (Fair Lawn, Dallas)

Learning That Sticks – How Analogies Shape Understanding
We are consistently faced with the challenge of teaching people how to move and getting
acute improvements to have lasting effects. Whether it’s helping a client learn a movement
for the first time, or a patient to re-learn a pattern after injury, the ability to convey a
message that can be translated into physical movement is critical. So this leaves us with
an important question – how do we make learning stick? To answer this we have to realize
an important truth – new information is best understood through the lens of something we
already know. Put simply, stories, analogies and metaphors can help us learn something
new by leveraging the experiences and knowledge we already have. Imbedded in science,
logic and experience, this presentation will provide you with a blueprint to turn memorable
coaching moments into learning that sticks. (San Francisco, Charlotte)

How To Get More Clients and Make More Money
“Now what?” If there is a struggle in coaching strength and fitness, it might come down
to this: what do we need to do now? Assessments show us what is NEEDED and the art of
programming is both take care of the client and athletes’ needs as well as what they want
to do. Based on the 1-2-3-4 Assessment, we will go beyond strength, mobility and body
comp and into the realm of Survive, Thrive and Sex Drive. (Dallas)
Pick A Plan: Choosing the Best Approach
Different settings, different environments, different clients and athletes all will benefit from
different types of programming. Everything from the location of training, the starting points of
the individuals, and their goals of training all must be factored in to a training approach. There
are many different angles and philosophies on how to put together and justify a program that
best fits these factors as efficiently as possible. This presentation will present the targets of
programming of a Concurrent Approach, Westside, and Block Training. Each of these programs
will also be presented with companion approaches of group training, blending manual therapy
and motor skill training in the presence of dysfunctional movement and Readiness monitoring.

Today when we begin any exercise program the focus too often is how much can I lift, how many
reps can I perform or how fast and long can I run. We forget that quality must come before quantity,
especially when it comes to exercise. During this presentation Lee will discuss the process in which
you can ensure you are focusing on how well your client or athlete is performing during exercise
and activity, not just how often. Lee will review the latest evidence pertaining specifically to this
methodology and how it can be used to improve your outcomes. The focus of this presentation will be
to utilize specific case studies in a variety of personal training, strength and conditioning and sports
medicine settings to demonstrate the benefits of this philosophy. (Boston, Seattle, Charlotte)

The concept of training for power should be a part of each and every training program
regardless of your population or their training experience. Training for power isn’t just
for athletes, these qualities are perhaps the most functional of any quality we can train.
Having explosive power can help us with daily tasks, help us to react quickly when
needed, and can help us decrease the risk of injury. This presentation will focus on a
variety of methods to address explosive power in your training programs. From simple
Olympic lifting variations, to Medicine balls, to body weight and band-resisted jumps,
you will have no shortage of options to address this all-important training component
with your clients. (Los Angeles, Seattle)
