Introducing Programming Principles:  The Seminar That Reveals The Secrets Behind Better Bodies

The best way to deliver first-class results to your clients is to really understand how those results happen.

That’s what this seminar is all about.

Programming Principles shows you the science and physiology that lie at the core of physical development and growth.

Once you know these concepts, you’ll understand all the processes involved with training, nutrition and lifestyle.

You’ll get rock-solid confidence in how you help clients find real results and handle difficult cases without hesitation.

You’ll develop a BS detector that lets you sniff out pseudo-science and useless advice that sends your clients (and your business) backwards.

And ultimately, you’ll see client results improve, based on a foundation of proven science (rather than marketing hype or “hacks” other trainers try to use).

"I think Luke is one of the key guys in the industry worth listening to. If you are interested in learning the science behind the very complex physiology within the human body; the how and why things happen or don't happen in a no-nonsense, layman's terms type format then neuroscientist and industry leading educator Luke Tulloch is your man! In contrast to an industry that seems to over complicate things, Luke has a refreshing ability to explain things in a simple, easy to understand manner and his knowledge on the fundamentals of fat loss and hypertrophy, what you really need to know, is second to none!"

Learning The Principles

Here's what you'll learn

Full day seminar (9am - 5pm): What does science have to say about training for muscle mass, strength and performance? How can we blend in the art of coaching to ensure success for each individual client? That's what we'll cover in this Practical Programming seminar.

Programming volume and intensity: Planning the main training variables over the week, month and more as your clients progress

Programming exercise selection: How to correctly choose and progress exercises to intelligently drive strength, function and muscle growth. This includes practical demonstrations of exercise execution and selection.

Practical considerations for programming: how to use the training variables of rest, tempo, training frequency etc to maximise results for busy clients and athletes who also train outside the gym

Key factors for success: sleep, nutrition, recovery and supplementation to support training

0% “Bro Science”, 100% Hard Facts

If I’m being honest, I shouldn’t treat “bro science” so lightly. This loose collection of pseudo-babble stops a lot of otherwise hard-working gym rats from getting anywhere close to their potential.

But like all good lies, there’s a kernel of truth to “bro science”. And where does it come from?

The same place the mainstream gets their fitness and training principles from: clinically-researched and scientifically-proven research papers, journals and publications.

Of course, it takes years for that research to trickle down to the masses, and it gets watered down to the point where only a few barely useful shreds are left intact.

And that’s because most of these papers are heavy going. Even with more than a decade of study, I sometimes struggle to get through them. But there’s literally no better source of cutting-edge science and strategy when it comes to getting more from your body.

Months (or even years) before it lands on the magazine racks or circulates through gyms, theories are tested in clinical studies and proven to be effective or not.

These hundreds of tests and findings make up Programming Principles. When you study these subjects, you’re looking at what the SCIENCE says.

So, what exactly will you find in Programming Principles? Try these for starters...

● When shit happens: what any routine has to handle before you start
● Should you be downing carbs before and during a workout? 
● Knowing the precise point when volume turns to “junk” that just slows you down
● Using a “diet break” to reset psychologically and physically 
● The four main factors in calculating your training frequency 
● More than just energy: four ways dietary fat supports hard training 
● Intensity of effort: a better measure than weight on the bar? 
● Common vitamin and mineral deficiencies to watch for and the foods that fix them
● Using the “Size Principle” to use more muscles when lifting 
● The supplements that actually work… and the ones that don’t 
● Tracking your “energy status” so you can pinpoint maintenance levels
● How to measure volume the right way with resistance training 
● Busting the myth around “more carbs = better performance” 
● More than once a week? Safe limits for training to maximise response and recovery
● Where fat fits into the pre and post-feeding strategy 
● Debunking time under tension 
● How the brain “fights back” against your best efforts to diet 
● How to make your muscles more “skilful” 
● How much protein you really need: the numbers you should know 
● How to take a great photo and get accurate body measurements 
● How to use carb and calorie cycling to stave off metabolic “plateaus” in your body 
● Linear vs block vs undulating periodisation, and how to use each one to maximise your training 
● Why nutrient timing is irrelevant when it comes to fat loss 
● The “Hormone Hypothesis” and how it affects your rest between sets

What Successful Trainers Who’ve Worked With Me Are Saying

 
 
 
 
 
 

I'm Guessing You're Not One Of These

You've probably seen more than a few trainers who put off things that would make a huge impact on them and their business.

 They usually give the same excuse: they're too busy with clients... or worse, "marketing" on Facebook or Instagram. But despite their flurry of activity, they never get round to understanding the principles central to their career and success.

 If you're reading this, it's unlikely you're one of those trainers. You have a serious interest in this subject.

 So, you can appreciate that when you understand the physiological fundamentals, you “leapfrog” most of your peers who never bother to learn these things.

 Your clients will get better results with you — results backed by science.

Your reputation in the industry may start to grow — thanks to your new skills.

 And you’ll sidestep the “fads of the week” less knowledgeable trainers get sucked into… fads that don’t do anything but ultimately hurt them and their clients.

 Click below to join other coaches and trainers around the world upgrading their skills, doing more for their clients and changing their business for the better.

The Story Behind Programming Principles

I entered the fitness industry at 18 and quickly realised I knew jack shit.

 I devoured every book and blog I could get my hands on. But there was a lot of conflicting information and most of what I read didn’t help.

 So, it was time for uni. Juggling study and a fledgling business was tricky – it cost a lot of time and money. I was finally done studying a Bachelor of Science (majoring in Neuroscience), but there was still a long way to go to really become an expert.

 Over the next decade, I continued to study. Sometimes that meant travelling to the USA, sometimes staying in my own backyard. But this is one habit I’ve always kept: setting aside time every day to review research and study training methodology.

 Over the past 2 or 3 years, I’ve been asked dozens of times where I got this knowledge from. Some of it comes from dry, dusty textbooks, while some has been dug up from studies hidden in obscure journals. But there’s no single source that fully covers the science behind nutrition and training. And that makes things difficult for trainers who realise the physiology behind our bodies gives them the keys to unlock far better methods of training, nutrition and lifestyle.

Clearly, helping other coaches get better results will have a ripple effect to dozens more clients and trainers.

I hope you can join me in Stockholm.
